Before you burn

  • Every recipe here is a tested starting point, not a guarantee. Materials vary between brands and even batches.
  • Always run a small test on a spare piece or a hidden corner before committing to the real job.
  • No two machines are calibrated exactly the same. Check your focus, start conservative, and adjust in small steps.
