Plotter/cutter

anybody seen/used this?

cuts up to 3mm apparently (1-2mm would do me fine)

this would be very cool to use for stuff like ribs, bulkheads and lots more.

I believe the 3mm depth is for paper/card and not plastic/styrene sheet.  These cutters are great for creating your own card model buildings etc.

I have a professional Silver Bullet heavy duty cutter, very similar to the Cricut/Sihouette, but bigger; however, I very rarely attempt to cut plastic any thicker than 0.5 or 0.75mm thicknesses. 

The trick is to cut two pieces of, say, 0.5 and then laminate them together. It is surprising how rigid that type of assembly becomes when glued together.
