Have you ever wanted to laser cut or engrave your own creations? Learn all the basics of laser cutting for beginners in this hands-on Brisbane workshop.
In this two-hour workshop, you will learn everything you need to know to get started with laser cutting. We'll cover all of the basics, and by the end of this workshop, you'll know how to operate our laser cutter and have a custom engraved keychain or drink coaster!
What we'll cover in the workshop:
  • The different types of laser cutters
  • How laser cutting/engraving works
  • The pros and cons of the technology
  • The process of laser cutting your very own item
  • Laser cutting and engraving your own custom keychain to take home
ACCESSIBILITY NOTICE: unfortunately our workshop is on the first floor and is only accessible via stairs. We hope that in the future we can grow large enough to move into a bigger and more accessible space.
CONTENT NOTICE: this workshop covers some fairly technical concepts and is a combination of both "theory" and "practical" content. Whilst kids 14 or older are permitted, we find that many struggle with the fairly technical content presented. We are happy to allow parents discretion when deciding if it is suitable or not, but please be aware that we cannot give refunds if they don't enjoy it.

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
