About

Successful completion of this workshop is the first step toward becoming qualified for independent operation of the laser cutter. It also prepares you for more advanced laser cutting classes.

The class covers how to prep a design for cutting and engraving as well as the set-up, settings, and operation of the laser cutter.

Required

Bring a laptop with Inkscape installed. Inkscape is the free design software we use with the laser cutter. Download it from Inkscape.org (there are versions for Windows, Mac OS and Linux). If you don't have a laptop you can bring to class, please email eta.programming@bainbridgebarn.org as BARN may be able to provide an alternative.
