Important safety notice

Settings are starting points — always run a test cut on scrap before your final piece. Follow your manufacturer's guidance, wear eye protection, and ensure proper ventilation.

I used a brown 1.9 mm Chipboard for bookbinding on an M2 Laser with a 20 W module to cut the chipboard in 1 pass. I used the 4 little magnetic feet to lift it out of the baseplate. The edges were a little charred, so I just cleaned them with a paper towel.
