Diode laser set is not compatible with a Glowforge aura

Beware when purchasing for a Glowforge aura mdf/ Hdf can ruin your Aura. These materials are not recommended for any diode lasers

The mdf/Hdf is great

Some of the materials don’t want to cut with my Glowforge aura. The plywoods don’t work unless you use multiple passes which ends up burning the wood

Hi Sabrina,
Sorry to hear not all these products didn't work for you this time. They certainly can be cut on a diode as we've had great success. Perhaps try adjusting your settings and checking your mirrors. Hopefully we can line up on something else! Thank you.
