       @EdS @mcdanlj +1 for asking on the Glowforge forum &, posting images & a detailed description.  There are a lot of very knowledgeable and experienced people there who respond cheerfully to stuff like this. I have been using Inkscape do design all kinds of stuff to cut on a Glowforge for years now &, haven’t run into a problem that matches that description.  If you want to share the detailed description+images here, I am happy to try to help. Feel free to DM me.

       @EdS @mcdanljEngraving is not uncommon. I have used the Glowforge to make pockets in wood and acrylic (e.g., for flush-setting magnets and routing wires). If you look at the box I posted earlier today, you can see some filled engraves. That was all set up in Inkscape.

       @OpenComputeDesign Do you have photos of the sorts of things you want to make?In contrast to everyone else responding here, my experience is with resin printing. I do print structural things, including mounts for microcontroller boards. Suitability depends on exact application. I often use nylon-infused "tough" resins.You can also use prints to make molds to cast things in more durable materials.Safe handling practices recommended, including good ventilation.

       @OpenComputeDesign Apologies for the delayed response. I had to run off to an event.I think you could get workable parts at that scale from either SLA or FDM printers. FDM might be a little easier to wrangle in the environment you are describing (less concern about toxins in your living space).Stuff like that should be pretty easy to model in something like FreeCAD (FOSS) or Fusion360 (commercial but, free for hobby use).
