    As a laser operator, thank you for mentioning some of the nitty gritty details. We catch shit ALL THE TIME because we can't cut hair thin features into 1" thick steel plate (which is always rusty and bent), usually I can get to about 1/4 or 1/3 the material thickness before we start having issues but yes, you are completely right that 1/2 of the material thickness is a fairly comfortable guideline.
    My laser beam is 0.012" to 0.016" wide, I have no reliable control over the thickness and as such, I cannot cut anything narrower but people can't seem to grasp the fact that there IS a fixed minimum.
