Jeanette,

Do you sell single side Multi-mat, used with lasers.
BTW prices you posted aren't uniform as per square inch.

Tony,

Multi-Mat only comes in the two-sided variety. I know several folks use it with their lasers too. LaserBits sells something -- you might check their site.

I've never figured out how the MultiMat people figured their pricing but those are the prices they set. FWIW, the prices have remained the same for about 5 years now.

Being oh so new to this, my question may seem dumb....but...

why is water wet?.... ( tee hee)

Seriously, multimat as I understand it is just something the prevents material from slipping in the engraver? It can be used with my new vision?

Thanks

Chuck,

Yes, MultiMat can be used with your new Vision.

Our server is down for the second day in a row -- can't get email in or out (Grrrrrrr). So ... if I don't respond immediately to a post or PM from EE today, don't be alarmed. I'll try to check in here frequently ...

Have a Happy Hawaiian Easter!

Joe has just confirmed his candidacy for President......

He has addressed Chuck's question without really answering the question.

He has expounded and given us facts on a subject nobody really cares about.

and........

He has used up his allotment of $2.00 words (tee - hee)

:O)

Wetting is defined, (loosely), as the ability for a liquid to cling to other substances. Teflon is not a water wettable substance, skin is.

Try a test yourself to see if you are wettable by water. Do not hold your head under too long.

When you finally understand it completely... it changes.

Mike ... after I got my engraver, I bought the Fat Mat and really like it. Like others, on small plates there needs to be another plate butted up against it to prevent it from moving or engrave a larger plate then cute to size after engraving. I have had it for close to 4 years now.

The only 'downside' to it at all is if you were to want to use the T Table slots, you would have to remove the 'backer plate' which is a piece of
1/8" acrylic which is adhered to the table.

I know this is part is not what you asked for but definately get the leveling kit for the engraver and 'level' the table or you will never get a an even depth of engraving without using the floating nose cone. Alternatively you could get some pieces of Coran to adhere to the bed and then level that.

Ed,

Well, if you're gonna join the conversation in the middle, I can see where you might turn red.... HO Ho HO ho ROFL!
:'D :B

you should have look at the earlier posts! :P

Ed,

It is hard to explain unless you have one. I use multi mat to hold down 1.5" aluminum disks when burnishing. After prolonged usage paint coating from disks gets all over mat and it needs to be cleaned. I run tap water on it to get rid of dirt, and dry it with hair drier, back in production.
One drawback with multi mat is that it leaves oily residue on table top and if plates need tape on them for attaching the tape should be applied before placing them on mat.
