Laser Cutting – Do’s and Don’ts

Get started using the Full Spectrum Laser!

First things first, If you plan on using the laser often, or just want to show off your cool technical skills to your friends, you can get fully certified using it here, which offers a comprehensive tutorial on how to use the machine, as well as safety tips galore.

Material Don’ts

  • PVC (Most commonly found in white construction pipes)
  • Nylon (Seen in clothing )

But, if you’re just a casual user who wants to cut some designs for class, or engrave

  1. Always do a test cut on your material first. Different materials have different properties, and varying reactions to the laser. Make sure to put aside a small piece and do a cut on that before moving on to your desired cut.
