That's an important piece of clarification... Most diode lasers will need something additional as a backer or substrate to cut/etc clear acrylic, like Kenny said. But CO2 lasers can do it fine. Of note, cast acrylic will do better than extruded
Also, be sure you understand the safety aspects of a laser when it comes to their fumes, especially with acrylic.
Mossie, I bought the unit for my daughter.... that seems to fade into oblivion as I didn't adhere to directions/doco.
I don't breathe regularly, I just dream dirty... doctors have a go at me for that... so what I have is a figment of what I read about... and I don't read. I had no idea what I have (can't bend over comfortably) though its nice to know it's a Co2... salesmen back in 2010 were shiftier than me.
That's why, whenever I crap on. I tend to say I have the Speedy 100, so people in the know , may realise what I'm crapping on about.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
