Laser Speed Converter

Convert between mm/s, mm/min, in/min, and in/s — the four units laser software uses. LightBurn defaults to mm/s; Glowforge uses in/min; some diode firmware ships in mm/min.

Why does this matter? Copying settings from a forum post or YouTube video without checking the unit is one of the most common mistakes beginners make. A setting of "300 mm/min" is only 5 mm/s — 20× slower than "300 mm/s". Always confirm the unit your software uses before entering a speed.

"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

★★★★★

"Excellent quality and design. Cut clean and neat!"

LYNN

"Great jigs. Appreciate the time saved not having to build this from scratch!"

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."
