Custom Coaster & Water Bottle Laser Cutting Workshop

Custom Coaster & Water Bottle Laser Cutting Workshop

Add some personality to your everyday items! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the basics of using Adobe Illustrator and the Universal Laser Systems laser cutter to engrave and cut the material. You will gain experience with setting up the laser cutter, selecting the appropriate materials, and adjusting the settings for different tasks.

Materials for the coasters will be provided. You’ll also have the chance to engrave an image or logo onto your water bottle — just bring your own bottle if you’d like it personalized. Please feel free to find a design or logo you’d like to use before the workshop! No experience is necessary.
