26	26	[[Waterjet cutting>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_jet_cutter]] is the process of using a high pressure jet of water to cut a material.  --laser to vaporize a material, so that the laser beam cuts through the material. When this is combined with a CNC tool head and both power and speed are balanced properly, this process allows the user to create flat parts from sheets of material, using 2D CAD drawings.--

Examples of allowed materials inlcude  --Lasers of this type and rating cannot cut metals, but are excellent for cutting organic materials and some plastics, as well as some other niche materials. Birch Plywood, Acrylic, thin silicone and buna rubber gaskets, organic materials such as leather, most fabrics and paper-based materials are among the materials that CO2 lasers can cut. Materials that should generally be avoided are highly reflective materials such as mirrors, materials that give off toxic fumes or particulates such as PTFE, ABS, Vinyl, and PVC plastics, and materials that cut poorly due to low wavelength absorption or other physical characteristics, such as HDPE and polycarbonate.--

There are a variety of materials that the waterjet can cut, example of allowed materials include acrylic, agate, aluminum, borosilicate, brass, carbon fiber, ceramic tile, copper, gabbro, fused glass, graphite, granite, HDPE, marble, memory foam, mild steel, neoprene, polycarbonate, polyethylene, polyurethane, porcelain tile, silicone, spring steel, stained glass, stainless steel, titanium, and tool steel. Materials that are water soluble or shatter under high pressure are not suitable for waterjet cutting.
