Laser cutting holes in project boxes?

Post by mikeselectricstuff »

How good are cheapo (40W) cutters at cutting holes in ABS, as used for most cheap project boxes from Hammond etc.?

As long as its no thicker than 2-3mm it should cut ok although we noticed that with dodgy acrylic it would leave a dodgy edge.
