I needed some outdoor signs for a project I was doing in the local historic cemetery. I experimented with Acrylic and Stainless Steel. I have an XTOOL 20W blue laser and a 2W Infrared laser. The 20W Blue laser does a nice job cutting the 1/8 inch Acrylic sheets. The 2W IR laser worked well to engrave both the Acrylic and Stainless steel sheets.

Things used:
* XTOOL 20W Laser cutter/engraver ( amzn.to/3C1O3CM )
* XTOOL Honeycomb bed ( amzn.to/3I2ZduL )
* XTOOL Air Assist ( amzn.to/3Gok22s )
* Neodymium magnets ( amzn.to/3Q0xEnR )
* Black Acrylic Sheets ( amzn.to/3YMlzqx )
* 24GA Stainless Steel Sheets ( amzn.to/3vjsXMr )
* Sheet Metal Hole Punch ( amzn.to/3C4KmMC )
* Lightburn Software ( amzn.to/3WRytln )
* Metal Shear ( amzn.to/3YWFBPg )
* Black Laser Marking Spray ( amzn.to/3hPhpO5 )
* IR Laser Goggles ( amzn.to/3C82XHQ )
* 3/4 inch by 1/8 inch thick aluminum angle ( homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-3-4-in-x-48-in-Aluminum-Angle-with-1-8-in-Thick-801717/204273996 )
