Not to mention that lasering white pvc yellows it and with pvc when we have tried to laser it, it just melts, can't get a nice edge to it.

My shop is an old coach house (1849), and I'm constantly chasing stray cats, raccoons and squirrels out. At present there's a persistent raccoon, that's taken refuge in my shop, and leaving little foot prints on everything.Originally Posted by John Frazee
Just a thought...... if lasering pvc and teflon kills birds, what can I laser to kill all these darn stray cats?

Raccoons can do a lot of damage, and their crap is dangerously toxic. If it's inside your shop, a gunshot won't be heard and won't freak your neighbors, the best cure is an evenings well placed .22, a plastic bag, and a trip to a country lane where some coyote will probably enjoy it!

The question is, did they have an efficient extraction system. I regularly cut Schedule-40 PVC pipe and do not have a spot of rust inside the machine.
One of the substances given off joins with the moisture in the air to form Hydrochloric acid and this will cause rust if let settle on steel parts.
However when I am cutting PVC I have the extractor at full speed and not even the steel blades of the extractor impeller show signs of rusting.
Probably not good to be breathing the gasses coming off but they are outside and moving fast. The exhaust ducting is all PVC pipe.
