Wood
Laser cut natural wood is gaining in popularity
Laser cut natural wood is a very broad subject due to the sheer variety of material, finishes and colours available. For this reason we normally ask our clients to supply the wood so they know it's exactly what they're looking for. We don't have many images of natural wood at the moment so we're using the MDF & Ply images - the effect would be virtually identical so you can get an idea of what you'd receive. We'll update with more relevant pics as we get them.
Don't forget we can also laser engrave natural wood with photographic quality images

Effects of Thermal Cutting
|
Because these are organic materials the cut edge chars and is covered with carbon - the thicker the material the more pronounced the effect.
