Speed check
1. Speed: 6%
Power 85.8%
Ppi 500
Zaxis 6mm
The speed was too low, therefore the wood was not cut.
2. Speed: 4%
Power 85.8%
Ppi 500
Zaxis 6mm
The speed was too low, therefore the wood was not cut, and it was slightly charred.
3. Speed: 2%
Power 85.8%
Ppi 500
Zaxis 6mm
The speed was too low, therefore the wood was not cut, and it burned a little
4. Speed: 1%
Power 85.8%
Ppi 500
Zaxis 6mm
The speed was too high so the wood burned.
5. Speed: 3%
Power 85.8%
Ppi 300
Zaxis 6mm
Since in the 4th attempt the wood burned and in the 3rd attempt it was not cut,
I reduced the speed and changed the PPI to 300, but still the wood is not cut.
In conclusion, the wood was too thick and therefore it was not cut, but we can say that attempt 3 was the best.

The cardboard was cut well, but I think I should have used wood because I had to use glue to make the connectors last or alternatively change the type of connectors.
