Working with 1/8" & 1/4"
Did you know that all 1/8" and 1/4" Baltic Birch has the possibility of cupping/warping? This can happen because of the nature of it being thin and wide. If and when that happens, this popular product for laser cutters can be accommodated by using simple techniques such as taping it down to a flat surface, or creating a jig that compresses it down flat. We always do our best to hand pick the highest quality pieces, but it’s important to be aware of this possibility when planning materials for your project.
If you require perfectly flat material for your project, we would recommend trying ourTruFlat® Laser Plywoodinstead.

Specifications
We have now developed 3 "house grades" so our customers can better understand what they are purchasing;
Laser/CNC Grade (B/BB): You can expect at least 1 face with no patches - often both!
Patch 2 Sides: Patches will appear on both faces of sheet. Best value but reserved for painting or small parts
Standard (BB/BB): A mix of both our Laser/CNC Grade and Patch 2 Sides grade. Expect about 80%-90% Laser/CNC Grade. Historically this is what we have sold and the grade of anything unmarked.
I am very happy with the product and supply timing. I am in Michigan and the delivery timing is exceptional.

nicely done
I have a small shop, and no really good way of getting a 5x5 sheet of baltic ply home on my cars roof rack, and it’s nice not to have to break a full sized sheet of ply into smaller pieces in my little shop, so this it was super helpful to just be able to order the smaller sheets from you. The cuts are clean and accurate, and the perfect size for the little projects I’m doing.
This material is a game-changer in the world laser engraving! The quality of the plywood is exceptional, with a perfectly smooth, perfectly flat surface (no surprise here) that makes it a joy to work with. The finish feels a little plastic, but I understand it’s an acrylic coating over the maple fibre, which I love. Even laser-fog burn marks wipe off with a damp cloth — no masking needed. The maple grain is pronounced and it cuts cleanly and sands beautifully. 100% will purchase again.
