If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have one idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas... George B. Shaw
Silly question (?), but would this be the same powder used in laser printers?

Hey Gary, I've tried it myself on my 40w Helix and can't get a decent flow. It either scrubs off or vaporizes. Would you consider sharing any tips?
I have tried all combos of hi/low power and speed. Maybe taking it just out of focus?
Test substrates include steel sheet and wood...

Air assist would leave you with a machine COVERED in powder and possibly the first time the beam hits it on your lenses, your lenses are toast.
I can't imagine you'd ever get it clean if it blew around in the machine unless your exhaust is strong enough to really cause negative pressure.
I've simply jostled a jar of it in the garage and had to open all the doors and wait for the powder to settle. Then wipe EVERYTHING down... I do love it though in it's traditional use.
