Can someone tell me if the Fiber Reinforced Plastic is bad to cut on my Laser?
I can cut it but I have read that plastic is bad for the laser but is the FRP stuff bad too?

Thanks

Ken,

You should be safe with most FRP's and plastics... it's chlorinated products (e.g., PVC, polyvinyl chloride) you have to watch out for.

The problem is, you won't like the result. You're better off cutting this material with a saw or router.
