For a while now I have been wondering if we could repurpose the covers of clear files that have been discarded by students.

Today I finally got a chance to experiment.

To the right is an image of designs cut from the dividers from an old teacher's planner [0.3mm]

Power : 100%, Speed: 10, PPI: 300

The designs also cut well from the covers of clear files [ 0.4mm]

Power : 100%, Speed: 9.6, PPI: 350

The results showed a bit of tinging when cut and minor amount of melting but overall this is working well for a first attempt.
