Balsa Woodcut
Speed250 mm/minPower80%Passes2

2mm balsa cuts in 2 passes at 5W. Balsa's open cell structure absorbs the beam efficiently making it one of the few materials that cuts reliably at 5W. Use a pin bed to prevent balsa from lifting. Good for model making and architectural scale models.

"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."
