So, I was thinking about building a cnc machine, with a laser.
First I thought of engraving, but now I'm thinking about a cutting laser.
Basicly, I do some lockpicking for fun (no crimes), and I was thinking about how great it would be to have a machine to cut out picks for me/others.!
So, my question is basicly, what would I need if I wanted to cut out picks from a < 1mm stainless steel plate? I dont need a super fast machine, but Some speed would be nice.
The shapes are fairly basic, but with a decent cnc machine it would work out great I think. But I'm not sure what kind of laser (CO2 i guess) I need, or what kind of power it would have to be to do this.
Any information would be great. =)
Thanks!
