New Material Tests

I'm constantly looking for new materials and sources for our laser cutter. Our HS Design teacher brought up a piece of plywood recently that he inherited and tasked me with seeing if I could cut it. Apparently he had success with engraving but not with making cuts. Below is an image of the file I created for testing new materials and the resulting cuts. If I'm being honest, I also just wanted an excuse to try some stuff out. I'm still pretty much a beginner with all of this.

Looks like the answer may be to make multiple passes at a lower power...
