The laser can cut plasic very well. Here is a 1/6 scale throttle lock screw that is from .030" plastic card x 4mm dia. You can see the attempts all around the work and the actual tlock used to dimension the work:  The laser is mint. I use it regularly to do all kinds of work. I was saved by a guy who got a couple and put all of his mistakes and adventures with the laser on youtube. His name is Russ and he did like 80 vids on these Chinese lasers and without a doubt saved me from wrecking it and helped get past the 'chinglish' barrier. Even then some probs occurred mostly because there are no cut-outs or safety switches or instructions or manual or....! Also cutting plexi (acrylic) up to 3/16" the laser polish' the edges of the cut! So cool. I almost got a job on another forum cutting wing ribs but the guy didn't want to pay me to do the file , and couldn't supply his own file. By the time files are made , samples cut and sent for inspection , amendments made and returned etc all needed to prove the work prior to production , theres no fun or profit in it. Send me the file , pay me what we agree and you'll get your lasered stuff. 6
