    I don't know if "milling" gasket paper is possible? I guess the paper would have to be placed on a vacuum table or firmly fixed with masking tape which may damage the paper when removed. As far as I know, gaskets are normally cut with a press tool, which could be made on a CNC milling machine. Perhaps someone here has some kind of CNC shears or scissors? Or maybe a laser cutter?

    I'm afraid that I cannot offer a solution, but it will be interesting to see what other members suggest...

    Laser it. The world is full of people with 40W - 80W desktop lasers looking for something to do.

    mmmm...... What about a mill with a drag knife or maybe a vinyl plotter. Dont know how deep the latter would cut or if it would need a backing sheet.

    It would be singed, but you could get your gaskets without the expense of having a die made.
