I just learned that cutting acrylic is not very straight forward. I discovered my 40W will not cut 1/4 acrylic on first cut. I attempted 3 mm/sec and full power, and I repeated the cut 6 times. .IMG_1223[2].jpg
See how there are so many cut marks. Seems that the beam move a bit each time around. Any ideas? Is this a focus length issue? Perhaps I need to spend more time turning pens and less attempting cutting acrylic... But I want to make pen levelers that go on my rotator devise. The rotator has a sizable gap between the two pins. The smaller pens almost go between them.
so I thought, make a leveler. Not so easy.
Thanks
