| I had a go with the cyano and had some good results, although on the thinner parts the pieces came free just before the machine made the second pass through the sheet. It was easy enough to clean off the thin sliver of brass remaining but I'd prefer to minimise cleanup time!
I found a supplier for the hot melt laminate adhesive and I'll post some feedback after I've given it a bash.
I'm actually trying to cut some of the iron straps for the side of a 2ft gauge War Dept Goods van. It's 2.5 - 3mm thick so not too much surface area for the adhesive to take hold. I should probably leave - "leave tags" on the items but I'm a bit lazy and would prefer not to have to snip the bits off afterwards. It'll be enough work simulating the 100 odd lag screws in each wagon corner anyhow!
The only problem I can visualise is that the cut brass detail parts look so nice I'm loathed to paint them - so any kind of scale look has gone out the window now!
