Badge & Build: Laser Cutters

Want to start using the laser cutter? This quick and friendly session is your chance to get badged and get cutting!

You’ll learn how to safely operate MakeHaven’s laser cutters and complete the Laser Cutter badge—unlocking independent access. During the session, you’ll cut a small project (like a keychain or nameplate) to practice the full process from design to finish.
