Anodized Aluminumengrave
Speed500 mm/minPower100%Passes1

Same baseline as Basic (both 40–45W CO2); Pro's extra 5W gives slightly more headroom — can push speed to 600 mm/min on black anodize. Full power, 340 LPI recommended.

"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

Bruce

"Excellent quality. Item as described. Expectations exceeded."

Michael

★★★★★

"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."
