The laser unfortunately can't cut through metal. The best one can do
is to coat the board in black spraypaint, remove it with the laser and
use it as a resist.<br><br><a href="http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2007/01/how-to-use-a-laser-to-etc.html" target="_blank">http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2007/01/how-to-use-a-laser-to-etc.html</a><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

We should try some copper clad board to see if we can cut a PCB with the laser... I've seen some people with fantastic success, and that laser is so fine that we could get some really accurate PCB traces with it.<div>

Hehe. Good idea. <br><br>It isn't that small yet. Using three credit cards I can build two trebuchettes. It is based on these guys design, which uses no glue or tape to hold the whole thing together:<br><br><a href="http://www.siegetoys.com/design.html" target="_blank">http://www.siegetoys.com/design.html</a><div>
