I'm glad to post pic of a small box I cut out form 6mm hardwood on my Laserpro Spirit 25W in a single pass! I notice most newbies to lasers have problems with vector cutting, but it is by reading through this forum's threads that I learned the tricks of the trade especially the very detailed posts from Rodney as to laser settings (I cut 6mm on 100P .7S and 180PPI). So thanks to all who contribute freely their experiences and cdr files.I made some mods to the box (added rounded edges at the top) and sell these to craft shops for tourists. The wood is local woman's tongue tree (albizia lebbeck) extensively used in the old days for furniture, but rarely now because of the toxic dust when polishing. I also made the same box from 6mm perspex with no problems.
