My laser will not cut metals but I think it would be as you suggest - a big enough laser to cut copper would probably cut straight through the board as well.  :)

Quite right and exactly what I do. http://www.cooperman.talktalk.net/circuit5.wmv

Just out of curiosity, does your laser scour glass so that it can break, like you do with a regular diamond cutter? Tinted glass in this case.

Not successfully.

The laser engraves glass quite nicely but it does not really produce the necessary 'V' type of score that is required to achieve a nice clean break.
