About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

To effectively use the laser cutter or vinyl cutter, you need a good vector graphic (file types SVG, AI and EPS). Instructor Jason Davies shows you how to use the free and open-source program Inkscape to make, edit and trace your own vector graphics.

Please bring your own laptop and a mouse to class, and ensure that you have downloaded Inkscape onto it before the class. If you can't bring a laptop, let the instructor know ahead of time so we can deploy a makerspace computer for you to use.
