Hi there,

This is totally correct. The best way I found to cut alum is by means of
water jet. The question is related to the high electrical and thermal
conductivity of aluminum. Here in Brazil it is also less expensive than
laser cut.

...........One alternative to this is to have is water jet cut [ or hydro
cut] this
leaves a very nice edge and is very comparable in price to laser cutting.
