I at one time looked into a laser that would cut thin sheet metal or
wood. You better have real deep pockets if you want one of them.
Freightliner has a couple of them that will cut up to 1/4 steel, they are
very accurate but also very expensive. Not something for the home work shop.
I looked at one for doing small wood parts for minature houses (doll houses)
in 1" to 1' and it would have cost over $15,000 for one that would cut thin
plywood (1/8") and the ones for metal I think were over $50,000. I think I
will stick to my scroll saw untill I hit the lotery. [:-} They do work
slick and fast.
