ADMISSION

This is an introductory class covering the basics of running the Shenhui SH-G570 60-watt laser cutter/engraver at Xerocraft.  We will also cover some basic introductory material in drawing vector graphics with Lightburn to send to the laser cutter. 

There will be a monthly mini-project for each class.  

Please note: Members who have completed this introductory training are NOT yet Laser Certified. In order to get the Laser computer password, trainees must demonstrate their knowledge in a separate session.  Contact boss.laser@xerocraft.org for more information or to schedule an appointment.

 If you are unfamiliar with vector graphics, we usually recommend Inkscape to beginners; it's a free, open-source software similar to Adobe Illustrator
