• Logbook - Keep track of time used in the logbook by each laser.

Community Best Practices

• Suggested laser usage during busy periods of 2-hour limit per day and 8 hours per week so that multiple people can get their projects done. Follow the good neighbor policy and communicate on slack if you have a unique need.
• For those with additional time needs or who doing business production, an additional laser is available as part of the Innovation Center membership. High quality, no waiting, +Adobe Suite.
• IC also has a fiber laser capable of marking metal.
• Consider downloading RDWorks (free, pc only) or Lightburn (paid Mac/pc/linux) so you can set up jobs on your personal machine prior to coming in; Lightburn discount code is available on Notion.
• Leave time in your reservation to save files, return settings to their defaults, clean the laser, and tidy up the laser room.
• Be considerate and consider coming in on off hours, especially leading into the holidays.
