Silicone Material for Glowforge

[takitus]

Here is some info from a cut test I did on silicone:

Laser cut on silicone

I just tried it, and I don’t think I can make it through my silicone. This piece is about .25" thick. The runs were as follows: 30%/50ipm 60%/30ipm 90%/20ipm - 2 passes The first and second runs made it about 2mm deep. The third run made it about 2.75mm deep and discolored the surrounding material on the second pass. Each pass created a really strange flaky residue inside the cut.
