Everything's compatible with the v3b hot-end, barring seriously high temperature stuff like polycarbonate. It really just depends on the quality of the stuff---if the diameter is not well-controlled, then you can get feed problems, frequent extruder jams, etc. I've heard that laywood can be tricky to work with, but I think that's true of any composite material.

I believe the instructions recommend using a 0.5mm nozzle with Laywoo-d3 with clogging being a risk with anything smaller.
