Craft & Laser Sheets
Laser-ready cast acrylic cut to your machine bed. Engraves to a crisp frosty-white mark, cuts clean with a flame-polished edge, and ships in 1/8" and 1/4" in over 60 colors — including edge-glow fluorescents. Order the exact size your laser takes instead of trimming full sheets.
Cut acrylic. Never cut polycarbonate.
Acrylic (PMMA) laser-cuts cleanly and leaves a flame-polished edge. Polycarbonate does not — it absorbs the beam, scorches brown, and gives off fumes you should not be breathing. We sell both materials, so to be explicit: everything on this page is acrylic and is safe to cut. Our polycarbonate sheet is for impact resistance and machining, not for lasers. Always run your own extraction.
Order the size your laser actually takes
Most sellers ship a fixed sheet and leave the trimming to you. We cut to size, so you can order the exact bed dimension. Our minimum side is 12″, and standard sizes run up to 24″ × 48″.
| Machine | Usable bed | What to order |
|---|---|---|
| Glowforge Basic / Plus / Pro | ≈ 11" × 19.5" | Order 12" × 24" and trim, or cut-to-size at 12" × 19.5" (12" is our minimum side). |
| xTool P2 / P2S | ≈ 23.6" × 12.1" | Order 24" × 12" — an exact stock size, no trimming. |
| xTool S1 (20W / 40W) | ≈ 19.6" × 12.4" | Order 12" × 24" and trim, or cut-to-size at 12.4" × 19.6". |
| Thunder Nova 24 / similar 24×16 | ≈ 24" × 16" | Order 16" × 24" — an exact stock size. |
| Epilog Zing 24 / Fusion Edge 24 | ≈ 24" × 12" | Order 12" × 24" — an exact stock size. |
| Larger flatbeds (32×20 and up) | varies | Order 24" × 36" or 24" × 48", or enter your exact bed dimensions. |
Bed dimensions are each manufacturer’s published usable area and can vary by revision — measure yours before ordering a tight fit.
Which gauge
- 1/8" — The default maker gauge — cuts fastest, least scorching, lowest cost per piece.
- 1/4" — Rigid enough for standing pieces, coasters, and layered assemblies. Needs a slower pass.
Best for engraving
Cast acrylic engraves to a frosty-white mark. The higher the contrast between the surface and that mark, the sharper your lettering reads — which is why black and clear are the workhorses of the maker world.

Edge-glow & fluorescent
Fluorescent acrylic gathers light across the sheet and releases it at the cut edge, so engraved lines and edges appear to glow. The effect is strongest on transparent fluorescents and gets better with a polished edge.

Color for layered pieces
Translucent and transparent colors stack well for multi-layer signs, inlays, and toppers. Ordering every layer cut to the same size keeps registration simple.

Settings, masking, and material choice
We stock cast acrylic, which is what gives you the frosty-white engrave; extruded acrylic engraves faintly by comparison. For the full rundown on cast vs extruded, masking, and how thickness changes your passes, read Best acrylic for laser cutting.
