This fact is a lifesaver for hobbyist laser cutters ... this technique also does not apply to acrylic and wood. Acrylic is simply too brittle to be cut or deformed by screw threads, and plywood ...
It turns out it is, if you bend the rules and bend the wood to make living hinge boxes with a laser cutter ... together like those old aluminum hobby enclosures from Radio Shack.
