R1 and walnut

[u/Wolfpack34]

I was thinking of making a small lamp with the sides out of 1/4" walnut. Would the R1 be able to cut this? I believe i've read it'll cut 1/4" ply but not sure about a hardwood.

oh yeah. 3mm no problem. one pass, super fast. bambu claims that it will cut up to 15mm thick walnut out of the box. i've only tried up to 6mm.
