SUMMARY:Make Laser-cut Puzzles
DESCRIPTION:Learn to use TinkerCAD and Inkscape/Illustrator with 
 puzzle-generator websites to design your own puzzles. Engrave and cut small 
 simple puzzles with the Makerspace’s Glowforge Plus. This workshop is a 
 hands-on introduction to designing for lasercutting. Participants will 
 receive a walkthrough on how to find complex lasercutting files online\, 
 import\, modify and export them. The workshop will proceed with a 
 walkthrough for designing an original puzzle in TinkerCAD and exporting it 
 for lasercutting. We will address pertinent vocabulary words and how to 
 optimize a balance between TinkerCAD's strengths and weaknesses. Additional 
 topics include Library and external resources\, best practices for 
 modeling\, and various tips and tricks to optimize the lasercutter's 
 performance. No experience necessary\, all ages and skill-levels are 
 welcome!
