Using Amazon acrylic with Glowforge Aura

Have you tried the new Hybrid Acrylic sheets? They work perfectly with my Glowforge Spark. I was bummed when I bought my machine and found out I was pretty limited, but I just ordered a few of these diode acrylic sheets from Acrylicmethat and they work perfectly with the spark. I started with their chunky glitter with rhinestones, so cool. I also got a few of their textured faux leather sheets and glossy iridescent styles. I haven’t seen anything else out there like it so far. The website I order from is www.acrylicmethat.com

Interesting! It looks like they sell black acrylic with a micro thin layer of patterened PU leather glued to the top (or maybe both sides, that I didn’t see). Have you cut any of those? I’d be curious if they’re depending on it being so thin and the heat of the acrylic underneath to make it through.
