Frylr Baltic Birch Plywood 2pcs, 12"*12"*1/8" Thickness A/A Grade Unfinished Wood, 3MM Plywood Sheets for Laser Cutting and Engraving, Crafting, DIY

I bought a laser engraver this year and have been practicing on basswood but decided to order some birchwood to compare it. The birch plywood cut well with my hobby laser engraver. My biggest issue is that I ordered 6 sheets of birch plywood and only received 2 pieces.

I've had laser cutters for several years. I've purchased 500 sheets from Amazon alone, so I'm very familiar with 3mm Baltic birch plywood. Prices have increased since the pandemic, with the current average at $2 per 12"x12" sheet. This product would have fallen in that price point had they shipped all 6 sheets. Since they only included two out of the 6, 4 stars were removed! Until they get this issue fixed, don't buy this product.If they either update their advertisement and pricing to reflect 2 sheets, or start shipping all 6, here's how my review would have gone. The quality of the material is excellent. The sheets were flat, and free of voids. It laser cut very well on a 40W diode laser, with no issues with dense filler between the layers. After the parts were cut, I sanded them with 320 grit on an orbital sander. There was plenty of thickness in the veneer without worry of sanding too deep. Everything glued up as expected with cyanoacrylate adhesive. Very nice product, very poor advertisement.

These two boards came in a plastic bag, about as thin as you can get, rips VERY easy, but it's something I guess. On the face, they are good looking, nice grain on both sides of each piece. Also cut very well, with nice clean edges, which is surprising for plywood, it can be bad for tear out, but not these two.Sadly while these look real nice on the face, as you can see they are warped. It is only 1/8" ply, so can be expected sometimes, but being warped can be an issue. For example, I had thought about using these on my CO2 laser, but since they are warped, it will throw off the focus and my engraves will not be consistent. So not sure where or how I am going to use these.Being these are suppose to be Baltic birch plywood, I would think they would be warped because that is suppose to be one of the flattest ply there is. Have to wonder if they are Baltic birch.One other thing, for some reason, there is a faint line (impression) on one side of both pieces. I am guessing there is something putting that line in, during their processing? Oddly, the lines do not match up on both pieces, so seems odd. It is light line that could probably be sanded out, or put on a back side, never to be noticed.I really wish I could say get these, but for the above, they would not be my first choice. If you don't need them flat, they are good looking. Price is okay.

I use these for nametags and other small projects like signs, etc. Easy to paint, laser and cut. Great thickness for nametags.

Beautiful, excellent quality birch, no knots and cleanly cut. Ready for crafts or small household projects.UPDATE:After a week out of their packaging some of the pieces of birch ply have begun to warp pretty significantly. Depending on their intended use, this could be a deal breaker.

This cuts nicely and seems to be good quality plywood for laser cutting. My biggest complaint is that instead of getting six sheets, I got 3. Personally, I don't find that acceptable. Looking through the complaints, it seems that I'm not the only one. Until they get this sorted out, I'd look elsewhere or be prepared to return the item. This is NOT accptable.

Firstly it says 6 pcs and I only received 2 in the box. Also it is super cheap and flimsy wood. I expected it to be thin, but one piece doesn't even lay flat. $20 for 2 cheap pieces of wood, no thanks.

I'm a woodworker and use products like this plywood frequently. Here's what I thought (Likes and dislikes below):Likes1. The verneer has all the characteristics of Baltic Birch and is likely that wood species. It is also defect free, so it is a premium grade.2. The single interior ply (common in 1/8" plywood) had no visible voids on the edges, also suggestive of premium grade.3. The thickness is uniform.Dislikes:1. The main concern is that this listing says you are getting 6 panels and only 2 arrived. This is both misleading and, for the listed price, not a good value.2. I expect thin plywood to warp slightly. When these arrived, wrapped in sealed plastic, they were flat. After tearing off the wrapping on both pieces and leaving them on a flat workbench for use the next day, both of these panels had warped more than I expected. This was in 30% humidity. If I hadn't intended to use them as inserts where they are forced back into shape, they might not have been useful.In sum, this plywood looks nice, but tends to warp. The biggest problem is that the misleading "6pcs" statement turns out to be 2 panels. Perhaps they were refering to the fact that each piece has 3 plys? (2pcs X 3 plys = 6 ?)
