High-pressure water jet with pure water or water and abrasive materials
is one method of cutting complex forms.  He basic machine is like flat-
bed plotter. Water jet cuts various material up to glass and ceramics.
The jet is so fast, that the paper does not wet. It is worth of thinking,
whether it is possible to cut paper to 0.01 inch tolerances.
