Re: QUESTION CUTTING CAST ACRYLICS

Good day all I'm cutting cast acrylic and noticing that without placing a substrate under the material, the laser cuts through the material, bounces off of the metal screen and creates a small cut in the underside of my parts.

It's known for being very nice, easy to use, high quality, and affordable. You can find more information about the Monport...
