DROP shadow font inkscape LESSON

In update on my zing adventure last week HERE
I mentioned that i made the drop shadows in inkscape
 Here is the lesson oh what i found works good for me .
LETS BEGIN
 (click on pictures to see bigger)
Open inkscape type the word you want , then 
go PATH  object to path 
and then OBJECT ungroup.
and  PATH combine
this way it is easier to do this lesson 
Select that and do a control D and move the dulpicated one 
out the way .
I turned it into outline only just for the lesson so you can 
see it easier  and then you do control D
Now i use the arrow keys on my keyboard on the computer 
and i go one up and one right
then you do control D
the arrow keys on my keyboard on the
 computer and i go one up and one right 
then you do control D
the arrow keys on my keyboard on the
 computer and i go one up and one right
then you do control D
the arrow keys on my keyboard on the
 computer and i go one up and one right
You continue the
control D
the arrow keys on my keyboard on the
 computer and i go one up and one right
till you are happy with the depth you want the 
shadow to be
Once I have got it to the depth you select all those 
and then
PATH union
Here is the result
I then move the one i put aside on to check it
Here it is  coloured to see what it would look like when i cut
Into make the cut and cut on cutter (in my case the ZING)
HOPE this helps someone out there 
ENJOY
 
 If you live in Australia and New Zealand
