<P>These classes fill up, reserve your spot now!</P>
<P>Harness the power of an Eplilog 35 Watt Laser! In this class you'll learn everything you need to know to make the ideas in your head become a reality with a laser.</P>
<P STYLE="text-align: center;"><IMG SRC="https://evbdn.eventbrite.com/s3-s3/eventlogos/6121399/wonderwheeldetail2.jpg" ALT="Laser cut boxes" WIDTH="450" HEIGHT="450"></P>
<P>In this three hour class, we'll walk through all the steps from idea to pressing the "go" button on the laser. We'll cover safety and basic design skills in Inkscape and you'll learn how to do a burninate test to find out if a material is laserable. After the three hours, you'll have made a plaque for your door, a keychain, a simple box or something more ambitious.  (There is lab time for laser cutting, questions and answers, and working with Inkscape, Illustrator, Corel Draw, etc.)</P>
<P><IMG SRC="http://herbhoover.com/newsletter_images/AstridaLazzor3.jpg" ALT="Laser Cut Designs by Astrida Valigorsky" WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="200"></P>
<P>After learning the basics, each student will create their own design and cut it on the laser! A $10 lab fee is included in the ticket price and covers your time on the laser cutter to cut and etch. We have a variety of scrap material to experiment with or you can purchase laserable acrylic, Delrin, illustration board, leather, or wood. Midwest [midwestproducts.com] and Revell make a variety of plywood, bass and balsa that is perfect for laser cutting. The bed size of our laser is 12" x 24" so buy materials accordingly.</P>

<P><IMG SRC="http://herbhoover.com/newsletter_images/AstridaLazzor4.jpg" ALT="Laser Cut Designs by Astrida Valigorsky" WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="200"></P>
<P>Please bring a laptop and a USB jump drive. You may choose to upload and install Inkscape before you come to class to get familiar with the software and start on a vector design project. We use Inkscape because it saves .svg files natively and is open source. Inkscape is available at inkscape.org</P>
<P>This class is required for coming in to do work on the laser independently. If you get inspired, you can come back and laser your objects on our Lunar Laser Mondays or Thursday Craft Night [see calendar for times].</P>
<P>This class is taught by Astrida Valigorsky.</P>
<P>All NYC Resistor classes are for people 18-years and up.  Sorry, minors.</P>

Join us for <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/super-mario-clouds-nes-programming-workshop-tickets-11466226793?ref=ebapi"> Super MARIO Clouds + NES Programming Workshop</a>:
<br/>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Cory Archangel's Super Mario Clouds is a well known work of digital art where a Nintendo game cartridge was hacked to just show the clouds in the game. He also happened to release some instructions on how to reproduce his leet hax! In this workshop, we'll be creating Super Mario Clouds from old NES cartridges, bringing modern art to your living room without having to splurge at Art Basel. Some basic soldering, de-soldering, and programming will also be covered as a bonus since that's how old NES cartridges are hacked.</DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"> </DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Class is limited to 12 spots and includes a used Super Mario cartridge.</DIV>
