Join the Maker STEAM team to use the laser cutter to engrave square slate or circular cork coasters in a small group learning environment with hands-on help!
Join the Maker STEAM team to use the laser cutter to engrave square slate or circular cork coasters in a small group learning environment with hands-on help! We will use our materials and provide materials for two coasters per registrant. Come ready with a design idea, a .jpg or .png of your design image via cloud storage, or just curiosity and we will have a few templates to choose from as well.
This small-group atmosphere will help introduce you to the laser cutter in a welcoming setting and show you the process of completing a laser cut project to help you prepare for when you reserve the laser cutter on your own in the future.
Registration is required. Participants will need to sign a safety waiver when in the makerspace. (This program is open to teens and adults. Teens under the age of 18 must have a guardian/parent present to sign the waiver.)
We also ask that you take the online, self-paced laser cutter orientation prior to coming to the program (if you haven't already) so that the orientation setup steps are completed.
Note: If you have any accessibility questions or accommodation needs, please contact us at Maker_STEAM@dconc.gov. We ask that all requests be made at least 3 business days prior to the event to ensure we can provide the best accommodations possible!
