Hardboard

Community laser settings for this material.

Hardboard (HDF) is a dense, smooth fiberboard made from compressed wood fibers without resin binders. The smooth surface engraves very evenly and cuts cleanly.

Pegboard is a common type of hardboard. The smooth side engraves better than the rough side. Very dense — may need more passes to cut through than MDF of the same thickness.

HDF cuts cleaner than MDF with less smoke. Dark edges are normal. Good for jigs and templates.

HDF engraves with excellent detail — very consistent surface unlike plywood. Good cheap alternative to hardwood. Seal after with danish oil.
