This event is part of our August CRAFT MONTH Series.
benchspace Bites are short introductory sessions for beginners where you can make your very own piece in a single class.
This is a fun taster class in laser cutting where tutor Aidan will demonstrate 3 simple projects using our "Big Red" laser cutter.
If you have an interest in this digital tool, come along, experience laser cutting and get a feel for some of the possibilities that are opened up by this amazing machine.
If you can draw it on a computer you can cut it using a laser!
In this class, Aidan will demonstrate the entire process from idea to finished item and you will then pick the project of your choice and be guided through it from start to finish, completing a laser cut item from the list below.
Materials are included in the cost of the class and no experience is necessary.
We are fully inclusive and all skill levels (Adult 18+) are welcome, however, please note that this course requires hand-eye coordination and the ability to follow precise instructions with regards to safety.
If you have a laptop and USB stick, please bring them with you on the day.
If you require a laptop, please let us know in advance so we can supply one for the duration of the class for you.
