Things that are safe to engrave

The question is, “What is Formica?” Does anyone know if this can cause toxic gasses? I have a bunch of samples and thought they might make nice bookmarks and luggage tags and other types of tags/labels.

So, I assume you read all this?

I haven’t read about it in a while, but I think it was all covered?

Found it just after I posted. Thanks. Any opinions on if you run the dust through a charcoal filter?

I’m not a filter guy so I can’t say, but generally messy materials cake up (clog) your filter faster, draftboard is notorious for that.

I don’t know how dirty Formica would be. I vent outside so I don’t sweat it.
