I finally got my Glowforge a couple of weeks ago and have finally made some projects with it! Well mostly the finished results are my wife’s work, but it was super fun to play around with the settings and get it working.


These are mostly cut at 400 speed and power of 32-34 (I find at 500 it could easily cut paper, but the machine would buck and jump around a bit so I slowed it down some).


I was pleasantly surprised with how things turned out. We ended up taping the cardstock down to the crumb tray in the edges to keep the airflow from vibrating and moving the paper.
