Introduction to Laser Cutting - Workshop

Don't get too excited with the laser refence - you won't be building Star Wars light Sabres, this is practical stuff for designers and start-ups wanting to find out how laser cutting could help them get their product our there fast. The course is led by Def-Proc Engineering at Does Liverpool - the home of laser cutting in Liverpool  

Do you want to get started with using a laser cutter?

Do you want to be able to produce your own designs and make cut them on a laser cutter?

Then this course can help.

Starting from the basics of laser cutting and operating a hobby laser cutter, this course will take you through preparing designs for cutting or engraving to making your own items.

  • How a laser cutter works.
  • Cutting, line engraving and fill engraving,
  • Using Inkscape to produce cut-files
  • Material choice
  • 2D to 3D, joining and jointing techniques.
  • Concentrated help and support for prototyping and refining your own designs
This course is much more in depth than the normal introduction I give to new users of DoES Liverpool's laser cutter, so at the end of the day you should be proficient enough to come in and use a hobby laser cutter by your self.
 
Technical knowledge is not required to start, it's possible for anyone to learn to start laser cutting.
