Laser Engraving for Wood
Cherry wood ranges from pale yellow to reddish-brown color and is a popular choice in furniture making.
Having a light color, when cherry wood is engraved, the design will have a highlighted look, and when cut, they'll have brownish smooth cuts.
The sapwood of the maple lumber is soft and most of the woodworkers use sapwood rather than its heartwood.
Maple wood can be easily engraved to bring out good-looking designs with a golden shade.
Generally, the best woods for laser cutting are basswood, cherry, alder, white pine, oak, Baltic birch plywood, balsa, and cork. Most laser cutters prefer softwoods with no twist, tight hardwood grain pattern. The cutting effect of each species depends on the power of the laser cutter as well as the thickness and speed.
