Course Description: Ever wondered how laser engravers turn ordinary materials into stunning custom designs? In this two-part introductory course, you’ll unlock the secrets of laser engraving and explore the endless creative possibilities!
In Part One (on-campus), we’ll break down the basics—how laser engravers work, the different types (from compact home models to high-powered machines), and the variety of materials you can etch, cut, and engrave.
