Here are a few resources to help you get going.
UPDATE
LightBurn now has a very powerful material testing tool built right in! Find it in the top bar menu under ‘Laser Tools > Material Test Generator’
Please check out our documentation for a full run down on all the features: Material Test - LightBurn Software Documentation

I would like to create a table (rows & columns) of power (x axis) versus speed (y axis). My desire would be to have 3 items from the layer palette reserved for (a) text, (b) grid/outline, and © final cutout… in addition to the grid of squares for power/speed combinations.

I don’t think this is possible in the current app, although I hope I’m in correct. As I see it, there are 30 pos…

I hope you enjoy it and i…

The tightest pattern has the dots spaced with a center to center distance of .1mm. Each dot has a blank space of .05mm between them.
The next has .1mm of blank space followed by .15, .2, and .25.
