6mm MDF needs full power and slow speed on the Basic. Heavy fumes from MDF binders — ensure clean exhaust ducting and ventilate the room. Edges char more than plywood. The Basic doesn't have the Pro's pass-through slot so you're limited to the crumb tray area for MDF sheets.

"Used it with a Glowforge — engraved beautifully with no changes. I will be purchasing more digital downloads from this shop."

Anna

★★★★★

"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."
