SUMMARY:Intro to Design for Laser Cutting
DESCRIPTION:Note: This workshop will be held online via Zoom.\n\nLaser 
 cutting is a process for cutting materials to create 2D and 3D designs. 
 From a digital file\, laser cutters use computer controlled high powered 
 lasers to engrave or cut wood\, metal\, paper and more with high 
 precision.\n\nLaser cutting is a fast and accurate way to engrave objects\, 
 make boxes\, and more!\n\nLearning objectives \n\nAt the end of this 
 workshop\, you will be able to:\n\n\n	Explain to others the pros and cons 
 of laser cutting relative to 3D printing\n	Explain to others acceptable 
 materials for laser cutting and why certain materials are not 
 acceptable\n	Explain what kerf is and how to account for it when 
 designing\n	Describe the difference between vector and raster cuts for 
 engraving\n	Select appropriate 2D or 3D design software for laser 
 applications\n	Find objects and designs online for laser cutting\n	Create 
 and modify 2D designs for engraving\n	Design a 3D object with tab features 
 for joining\n	Export designs to .svg file format\n\n\nDownload and Install 
 Inkscape here: https://inkscape.org/release/ (Note: If you are a staff 
 member at UVic and are wanting to install software on a work computer\, you
