Oh no, I’m sorry to hear about the trouble @lukeyes.
As others have stated, the best way to perform your print would be by removing the Crumb Tray.
You can print on objects up to 2" thick by removing the crumb tray. However, your Glowforge can’t focus too far down, so you may need to put something laser-compatible underneath your material to lift it up. Raise it until the top surface of your material is between 1.5" and 2" (50 mm) high, measured from the metal plate on the bottom.

Would you let me know if you’re able to perform your print?
