i am confused with laser powers , i want to make a cnc pcb machine as a final project .

any body having a work experience on LASER's ?

what power is enough (no more no less) which can etch , drill , and cut a (copper clad) pcb board .

i just want to use a single laser module .

would i use 10w-20w CO2 or less power would be sufficient . how can i calculate this , is there any mathematics ? or some comparison table .
