Laser Cutter
Our laser cutter...
is a heavily upgraded industrial CO2 Laser, currently set up with a hefty 100W laser. The largest object that can fit in, and be cut inside of the laser is 900mm by 600mm (35.4″ by 23.6″), though objects that are larger can still fit because of the front and rear passthrough. With a bit of tweaking, our laser is able to cut or engrave just about anything, though some materials become toxic when cut by a laser, and are currently off limits. Additonally, our laser is extremely powerful, but not powerful enough to cut metal.While just about anything (depending on the thickness) can be cut or engraved on our laser.
