Where I buy most of my non-proofgrade materials: https://www.smokeyhilldesigns.com/ Instagram: @85thandpine Email Address: 85thandpine@gmail.com DISCLAIMER: I choose to buy materials other than proofgrade materials. You will need to make sure the materials you use are laser-safe. Per Glowforge, “if you buy from other suppliers you'll need to do some research first to make sure they are laser-compatible. A Glowforge is like a microwave - putting the wrong material in can damage it.” -  

 1. don't leave unattended

2. settings

3. do test cut before any project

5. proofgrade settings are important - 

6. mask everything

7. use carbon filter is you buy the compact air filter
