What to know before you cut
- Use 1/8" (3 mm) birch plywood, basswood plywood or MDF. Sheets labeled 1/8" often measure a little more or less, so measure with calipers and enter the real thickness.
- Set your laser's kerf once: cut a 3/4" (20 mm) square, measure it and enter the difference. The finger joints are compensated, so the parts press-fit.
- The default sheet is 24 × 12 in. Change it under Material, laser and sheet to match the bed of your machine.
- Cut lines and engraving are kept apart, so you can set power and speed for each. Keep the sheet flat on the bed.
