Hello everyone,

I've just moved to NZ from the USA and I'm bringing my Glowforge laser cutter with me (it's on a container right now) and was wondering where some good places to source materials for laser cutting are. I'm particularly interested in plywood, veneer plywoods and acrylic. Thank you!

Ah yes - should have mentioned that. I'm in Cambridge at the moment, I don't mind to travel to buy a bunch of materials though (once lockdown has ended of course).
