Laser Cutting - Taster Workshop

On 4th March, this short taster workshop will give you an overview of what the laser cutter can do in terms of cutting different materials. Giving you an introduction into how to prepare files for laser cutting, and produce a small piece of laser cut. We also have a separate laser engraving class that compliments this one.
ABOUT TASTER WORKSHOPS
Please note that short Taster workshops are not intended as stand-alone access courses. Due to the short nature of this workshop, we do lots of the preparation for you and streamline the process so you get a finished print at the end of the day. This does mean that you will need more training before you are self-sufficient in this process and are able to work in the studio without assistance. To use Edinburgh Printmakers open access studio facilities, you will need to attend a weekend/evening course or refresher/induction class before becoming a member. How much further training is required is based on each individual’s previous printmaking experience.
