    Default Stencil paper

    Hello,

    I have a simple question. Can I use polypropylene paper for laser cutting?

    Thank you.

    This is a question to ask the company that makes the laser cutter.

    We have a few people in this forum who do laser cutting and if they see this post, maybe they can answer this question.

    the simple answer to the simple question is 'yes' but not everyone will do it because it is on the risky end of the scale - quote from

    http://wiki.makespace.org/Equipment/...r#Can_I_cut_it

    in the 'can I cut it?' section

    Polypropylene: yes just. You must clean the bed. It will cut up to about 2mm. It's not a great quality cut, but just about doable. Fire risk.
    like Gary said - talk directly to someone qualified to do it
