Maybe with some wood based filament!

I’ll try it with CFP purebond! I have so many things going on. I’m going to have to start planning out my time better. lol

Purebond is mdf-core too. Generally, if MDF gets wet it puffs up and is a mess. I’m not saying you shouldn’t try it, just beware that the water soak trick to soften the wood might not go super well.

I’ll be curious to see how it goes!

You might notice that the photos I posted are Loews oak plywood, I went through many to pick few but soaked them overnight in hand sanitizer before trying to bend it. I also engraved 3+ layers deep so there was a lot of ability to give as you can see. Trying that with MDF would give you a pile of sawdust, but most all wood ~1/4" plywood is worth the try.

Since it’s not a sharp angle, you could always veneer the curve. Maybe steam the veneer a bit first to facilitate the bending.

Oooh, I love that you combined tools! Now I need a 3D printer! Probably shouldn’t say that loud enough for my hubby to hear. :face_with_hand_over_mouth::shushing_face:

I just got a 3d printer to go with my glowforge. I need to think up some fun mixed media projects like this.
