An excellent material choice for laser projects. The 1/8" thickness strikes the perfect balance – thick enough for structural integrity but thin enough for clean cuts with minimal charring. The sheets arrive consistently flat and measure precisely at 12" x 12", making them ideal for standardized project planning.
The sapele's natural reddish-brown color and subtle grain pattern add a premium look to finished pieces without any additional finishing required. I appreciate how well it engraves – the contrast between engraved and natural wood is striking, and fine details come through beautifully. Cutting is clean with proper settings, and the edges have minimal scorching compared to other plywood sheets I've used.
The 6-piece pack is a practical quantity for testing designs or completing small to medium projects. The material quality is notably consistent across sheets, which means you can dial in your settings once and trust they'll work for the entire pack.
If you're working with wood regularly on your P2/P2S, this sapele plywood is a solid material to keep in stock. It's versatile enough for everything from decorative pieces to functional items.
