@dan, has Glowforge given any thought to selling Proofgrade sample packs? I’m picturing something like 3" samples of each material so we can get a feel for the color, weight, thickness, etc. Maybe break it down into each category, so I could get all the woods without getting acrylic, or vice versa.
I like to work really tactilely and get so many ideas just from holding a material, turning it around, looking at it…
Anyone else work the same way? Would anyone else be interested in something like this?
The traditional way to do this is with a key ring that you pay a nominal fee for and then the company maintains it by sending samples to add as the lineup grows.
This has come up before but it is still a good idea.
