I am brand new to this so please forgive if this is a dumb question. I recently bought an Aura and am attempting a project using Proofgrade Medium Cherry Plywood. I get a message that “Cherry Plywood, 1/8” Proofgrade is not currently compatible with this printer”. I saw recently where the settings for Thick Plywood was added and have been able to complete a project using Thick Plywood on my Aura. But would really like to use the Medium. I even tried to manually select the material (thinking that might help) and it doesn’t even come up for me to select - I type in Plywood and can select Thin or Thick but no Medium.
Thank you! I am trying the same project using some Proofgrade Thin that I have. I am super brand new to this whole world so am trying out stuff. I appreciate your guidance and the guidance that I have read in the community since I started. Today was my first question!
All the Medium PG plywood has an MDF interior vs actual wood. MDF can fill a filter to full in just a few hours, more than anything else you can cut by far.
It seems there are still several materials that are either not compatible with the Aura or have just not been listed with automatic settings. I’m sure they will continue adding more as time passes.
Hi @brcdonald welcome to the Glowforge community and world! Excited that you have an Aura!
We’re constantly adding new Proofgrade settings for the Aura, and we’ll keep on updating them as we continue to add more. We’ll always update on our Latest Improvements page (which it looks like you already are in the know of): Latest Improvements
