Re: Sintra alternative for Laser Cutting
Yeah, hard to replace sintra and not sure why you would if you still have the router as its likely faster and cheaper.
Abs has a lot of variation so you might try another brand. I've also had some success with black arena board (aka puck board) but it gets sooty and needs a rinse. That's the only one I can think of that is cost comparable to sintra.
Petg cuts ok but edge is only so so and its maybe double or more to sintra price. Rowmark stuff is maybe 4x sintra price.
If I had your issue, I'd try and find an abs first. But both abs and arena board smoke and soot and increase maintenance on the laser.
