CNC Router Orientation & Safety (CLASS FULL)

Join us for a beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop to learn how to use the CNC Router!

This class is open to subscribing members of Annapolis Makerspace only, and is required for any members who do not have prior CNC machining experience prior to independently using the CNC router.  If you plan to use your own laptop for creating designs, please bring it with you to class. 

Participants will gain insights on what types of projects a CNC router is used for, learn how to create a basic vector design and configure tool paths in either VCarve or Carbide Crete software.  Then, that design will be used in a hands-on exercise with each participant preparing and mounting their material and operating the CNC router to cut their design. 

Max class size = 4 participants. If you have any difficulty registering for this class, please send an email to hello@makeannapolis.org

(Members with prior experience with CNC machine operation: please email hello@makeannapolis.org to schedule an abridged orientation to our CNC equipment in lieu of this class)
