Laser Cutting 102 
BNY Fab Lab Workshop

In this workshop, use 2D design software and the laser cutter to explore the mathematics behind designing and creating 3D shapes using flat sheets of material. Learn how to create strong joints that will help move your laser-cut projects from 2D to 3D! Completion of Laser Cutting 101 is required to register for Laser Cutting 102.

The workshop is open to ages 8 and up. Children ages 8-12 must be accompanied by an adult who also registers for the workshop.

Advance registration is required. Please note: Tickets are being sold up to four weeks in advance.
