I am sending some 700micron polypropylene to Graphtec to test this - lets see. Should be OK. I tried aluminium shim-stock the other day, which is fine, but I needed to adjust the gripping wheels as it slipped a lot.

Nice 1! Maybe they can even give a speed/power rating for the polypropylene. Thats amazing that you can cut metal! Is aluminium shim-stock quite different to a thin pressed aluminium sheet then?

I got a selection from McMasterCarr while in the States, I used the 0.005" blue alu. link

Some of my works may be your help.
They are made with CraftROBO.
