I too work with some composite materials just not C/F. I cut FR-4 Lamitex, Phenolic, Kevlar and a whole lot of high carbon blue steel.


Thanks for all the quick replies.
What type of model car? 1mm is far to thin for any application on model cars. I have been racing at International level for over 20yrs and designing aftermarket products for the last 5yrs. For nearly any applicatoin you will be looking to use between 2mm and 4mm depending on what class car it is. For Nitro definately 4mm.
