The best substitute for Baltic Birch - perfect for laser cutters and CNC work!
The last few years have been extremely hard to source Baltic Birch - not to mention the price consistently rising! ALL-Birch is the best substitute we've been able to find on the market and we are very pleased to be able to offer this new exciting product!
The biggest difference between ALL-Birch and Baltic Birch is that the outside face veneers are thinner (like a traditional plywood). For most of our laser/CNC/craft clients - this is not an issue at all as we've already seen great success with our Craft Plywood on MDF.

Had trouble with warping after unwrapping
I opted for local delivery ($90 or something), and also got some milling done (was $2 per cut). Wood was supposed to be delivered on Friday afternoon, but the shipping company didn't come by (I called after they missed their time time slot, got it extended by a few hours, and then they missed that slot too). We rescheduled for Monday between 9-12, but then missed that time slot, and after calling again they got it delivered just shy of 1pm. To be fair to KJP, it sounded like a shipping company issue, and everyone who I talked to was nice and professional. Just sucks for me.
More importantly however was that their were some significant errors in the milling. I gave them a cutlistoptimizer spec sheet (which was what they have used in the past), and a few parts were notably short with 1 piece appearing to be missing. I can salvage these errors myself, but these cuts were pretty expensive, so kind of unfortunate that I'll just have to spend a decent amount of time fixing it.
If I were to redo my order, I would probably get a friend or uber or similar to pick up the wood. Then for the cuts, I would either do them myself, or create a much simplified cut list order (one that wouldn't be overly effected by messing up a cut by a bit).
I really like KJP in general, just a bit disappointed here in my experience surrounding the purchase of wood.
I bought the All-birch and the Baltic birch at the same time to compare. I prefer the ALL-Birch plywood! It may be slightly darker, but it doesn’t warp as much, and it cuts beautifully.
Excellent, easy to order and delivered on time. This plywood engraves and cuts very nice. I will be purchasing from KJP again in the near future.
Great purchase, wood smells and looks amazing. Wood purchase again in the future.
Having used typical shop vacs from both Shopvac and Ridgid I could not believe the difference in performance, efficiency, noise level, features and dust extraction capability of the Festool CT MIDI I. After attaching the MIDI to my Milwaukee track saw, I couldn’t see any dust anywhere which was quite a departure from what I have been accustomed to. Yes, the Festool is pricey however if you value your lungs and you insist on highest level of dust extraction capability, then it is worth every single penny spent to buy one.
