Ed's post reminded me.. I got some aluminum the other day for an upcoming project. I'm making a rotary for doing pens. The pens lay in slots on the table and a stepper will move each pen under the laser to be engraved then on to the next one. This one will have either 20, 24 or 25 slots. Haven't decided yet. I'll do some tests on slot sizes to see what works best, but they'll be tapered, approx 10mm at the surface, 6-7 at the bottom and around 5mm deep. My plate is a 12x12x3/8" that I'll round out to a 12" circle. The other piece is 5x24x1/4" and part of it will be the base for mounting the stepper and support for the plate.
