About the Laser Settings Library
The Bonny Creations Laser Settings Library is a free, community-maintained database of speed, power, passes, and air assist settings for diode, CO2, fiber, and UV laser engravers and cutters. Every setting is submitted by a real user and rated by the community — the highest-rated settings rise to the top.
The database covers over 100 machines including xTool, Glowforge, OMTech, Sculpfun, Atomstack, Ortur, Commarker, and more — paired with materials like wood, acrylic, leather, slate, anodized aluminum, glass, cardboard, and fabric. Settings are formatted for LightBurn, XCS, and LightBurn Material libraries.
How community settings work
- Anyone can submit a setting for their machine and material combination
- Settings are reviewed before going live to remove obvious errors
- Community members upvote settings that worked for them and downvote ones that did not
- The highest net-voted setting for each machine/material pair is shown first
- Settings marked Community Pick have been verified by multiple users
Why settings vary by machine and material
Laser settings are not universal. A 40W CO2 machine cuts differently from a 40W diode laser — even at identical wattage. Focal length, beam quality, air assist pressure, material thickness, and ambient temperature all affect results. Use these settings as a tested starting point and always run a test on scrap before a full job.
"Used it with a Glowforge — engraved beautifully with no changes. I will be purchasing more digital downloads from this shop."

"I was struggling with lining up my NFC business cards. I was able to not only line them up much better but also do multiple cards at once — making that job so much easier."
— Camp

"This template made my slate coasters so much easier. 4×4 coasters from Michaels drop in easily and are easy to remove. Def worth it."
