benchspace Bites – Laser Cutting – 22 April

A fun introduction to laser cutting by making some simple projects
Come along and experience laser cutting and get a feeling for some of the possibilities that are opened up by this amazing tool. If you can draw it on a computer you can cut it using a laser.

Watch the instructor demonstrate 4 simple projects and the process of going from idea to finished item. Then choose one and be guided through the process from start to finish.

Projects:

• Keyring
• Cut out a message written using a script font
• Create a stencil using a stencil font
