Intro to Glowforge

The Glowforge is a 3D laser printer that can engrave, cut, and score into materials such as wood, acrylic, leather, and more. In this introductory workshop, we will learn how to use the Glowforge to engrave a simple design onto wood. Make and take home a coaster.

Sessions are designed to build your skills so you can apply them to your next project independently. There is no such thing as failure with DIY, just learning and fun!
