When we pulled the 10 Pack Walnut Plywood Sheets (12x12x1/8 inch, 3mm) out of the box, the first thing we noticed was the deep, chocolate-brown grain—rich enough to feel “finished” even though it’s technically unfinished. For our laser cutting tests, the size is immediately practical: big enough for signage, ornaments, and small architectural models, yet compact enough to store without warping into a corner. We ran a few quick engraves and line cuts to see how the walnut veneer responds, and it gave us that crisp contrast we chase for detailed artwork. The real question, though, is consistency—sheet to sheet—and whether the ply core behaves cleanly under heat. That’s what we dug into next.
