Design notes

Brass is a metal alloy made by combining Copper and Zinc. It has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity as well as good corrosion resistance, ductility and strength.

The fabrication process for metal is different from all our other materials - as such there are a few important points to note:

• We won't be able to apply Prime discount pricing to metal orders.


• Getting your metal pieces cut may take longer than standard orders. If you want to make designs on other materials as well, we would recommend placing the metal order separately.


• Please read things you must know for laser cutting metal before starting your project as there are some specific design requirements for this material.

Note: The brass material has no protective film so surface marks and scratches are possible.

Adhesives, joints & fastenings

Brass is best connected with mechanical fastenings, by soldering, brazing or welding.

A two part epoxy may be used to stick metal to other materials. For more info about gluing metal see this site.
