<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>I think our laser cutter is with Shannon Lee. <br><br>I think it would be great to have a nice Lasersaur in addition to the small one (which can cut 1/8" plywood) we already have. <br><br>I also agree that to keep the laser cutters usable, we should require proficiency -- abs taking a class is a great way to do that! We should have classes, anyhow, to encourage the use of our laser cutters. <br><br>How much do we need to raise to get the Lasersaur parts? <br><br><br><hr>Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2014 18:05:52 -0700<br>From: p@trickod.com<br>To: daravinne@gmail.com<br>CC: build@lists.noisebridge.net<br>Subject: Re: [Build] lasersaur?<br><br><div>Looks neat.

<div>sidenote: as a Concerned Citizen of the People's Republic of Nosebridge, i'd prefer if the laser built as a result of this effort wasn't automatically a public use item, i.e. if one wants to use the laser they need to take a short class to get laser-certified like at techshop or something. </div>
