Two Laser Cutters, Twice the Power

Published: January 17, 2023

The Glowforge laser cutters can etch and cut multiple materials easily, including acrylic, leather, paper, rubber and wood.

For 2023, The Shop now offers twice the availability for our Glowforge laser cutters.

Our makerspace is equipped with the Glowforge "Basic" and "Plus" laser cutters which provide the same size cutting area and “superhero powers” so you can easily design and create your own masterpieces.

With the additional equipment, The Shop can accommodate more shop time and reservation availability to artisans and makers.

Both laser cutters can be used to make personalized gifts, enhance your next art project, boost your crafty merchandise store and experiment with laser engraving and cutting.

To use the Glowforge laser cutters, you must take the certification class. Once you are certified, reserve up to two hours per day at The Shop.

Don’t delay your next project! Reserve today, get to know other makers, exchange artist ideas and make things.
