Use the Material Test Tool in Lightburn for better results with your laser

I'm often asked what settings to use on various materials and lasers. While I can give an estimate based on my experience, what you really want to do is run a material test grid to find the exact settings that will work with your laser on your material and in your environment. In this video I step through using the material test tool on both cut jobs and engraving jobs to find the exact settings for a new laser in the shop.
