Laser cutter induction

Learn how to prepare your designs and operate the laser safely!

We're taking a laser focus on training for our popular laser cutter induction. Sign up for induction and discover the limitless creative possibilities available at The Edge.

Laser cutters can quickly and precisely cut and etch wood, plastics, paper, fabric, and leather. In this session, we will guide you through the dedicated software, show you how to prepare and adjust your design files, and teach you how to safely operate the machine. Once you have completed the induction, you’ll be free to book and use the laser cutters at The Edge during Open Lab.
