. . . does anyone have some experience or suggestions for vac hold-down of
something like a brass plaque for engraving, or for even smaller footprint
objects for machining?
Mark!
If your engraving forces are not too great, then the method I use for
PCB-hold down, and SOME light engraving is to use 3M "Wallsaver" Poster Tape.
AKA "Removeable/reuseable double-stick tape". Their retail price is
OUTRAGEOUS (about 3? per linear inch of the 3/4" wide stuff), but it works
very well for this, and is "clean". Jan Rowland
