Can I use these files with my Glowforge laser cutter?
Absolutely! The SVG files work perfectly with the Glowforge app. You can set different operations (cut, score, engrave) for different layers. Compatible with Glowforge Basic, Plus, and Pro models.
Are the SVG files compatible with LightBurn and RDWorks?
Yes! Our SVG files are optimized for professional laser cutting software including LightBurn, RDWorks, LaserGRBL, and K40 Whisperer. Paths are clean and ready for all cutting, engraving, and scoring operations.
Do I need to edit paths or nodes before cutting?
No! We automatically optimize the paths for cutting machines. The SVG files have clean, simplified paths that cut smoothly without any manual node editing or cleanup required.
What cut settings should I use for my laser cutter?
Cut settings depend on your laser wattage and material. For a 50W CO2 laser cutting 3mm plywood, start with 15mm/s speed at 80% power. For engraving, try 300mm/s at 20% power. Always do test cuts first.
Can I use these SVG files for vinyl cutting?
Yes! The clean paths are perfect for vinyl cutters, including Cricut, Silhouette Cameo, and Roland models. Great for making decals, stickers, and heat transfer vinyl designs.
Will this work for CNC router projects?
Absolutely! Our SVG files work great with CNC routers. Import into your CAM software (like Easel, Carbide Create, or VCarve) and generate toolpaths for cutting wood, acrylic, or other materials.
What file size works best for laser cutting?
For most laser cutters, design your projects to fit your bed size (common sizes: 12x20 inches for Glowforge, 16x24 inches for many CO2 lasers). The SVG format scales perfectly so you can resize without quality loss.

Tips for Successful Laser Cutting
Start with Test Cuts
Always run a small test cut before cutting your final piece. Test different power and speed settings for your specific material and thickness. Save successful settings for future projects.
Tip: Create a sample card with various settings to quickly reference for different materials
Optimize Cut Order
In LightBurn or RDWorks, arrange your cut order so internal details (engraving, scoring) happen first, and the outer cut line is last. This prevents pieces from shifting during cutting.
Tip: Use different colors in your SVG to separate operations - red for cut, blue for score, black for engrave
Material Matters
Use laser-safe materials only. Avoid PVC, vinyl (releases toxic chlorine gas), and fiberglass. Great materials include: wood (birch, maple, walnut), acrylic, leather, paper, cardboard, and anodized aluminum.
Safety first: Always ensure proper ventilation when laser cutting
Size Your Designs Correctly
Know your laser bed size and design accordingly. Common sizes: Glowforge Basic (11" x 19.5"), Glowforge Pro (11" x 23"), 50W CO2 lasers (12" x 24"). Always leave 0.25" margin from bed edges.
Tip: Design in inches or millimeters, not pixels, for accurate sizing

Why SVG is Best for Laser Cutting
Scalable Without Quality Loss
SVG is a vector format, meaning you can scale designs up or down infinitely without any loss in quality. Perfect for creating products in multiple sizes or adjusting to fit your material.
Universal Software Support
All laser cutting and craft cutting software natively supports SVG files. No conversion needed - just import and set your cut/engrave operations.
Precise Path Control
SVG files contain mathematical paths, not pixels. This gives you precise control over cut lines, ensuring clean cuts with no stair-stepping or jagged edges.
Small File Sizes
SVG files are much smaller than raster images, making them easy to store, share, and organize. Perfect for building a library of cut files for your business.
