Troubleshooting and editing laser files

Made this video with common issues you may run into when purchasing or free downloading laser files you didn’t make. It covers, material thickness and why it’s important, 3rd party program scaling issues, kerf, and an example editing of slots at the end. I’m sure there maybe a few things I missed or someone else may have other fixes or ways to do it but this is the best troubleshooting guide I could put together to help as many people as possible since it’s hard to explain in text format:

Hope it helps someone out. Also in the video description there are links to more in-depth videos as well on the different topics.
