Pages to do with the Laser Cutter: |
Big Laser Rebuild -
On 8/12/19 a fire started in the Big Laser Cutter. Fortunately, the fire was contained to the Big Laser itself. No one was injured, though there was a lot of nasty smoke in the building.
The fire did cause a lot of damage to the Big Laser and made a mess of FabLab. It could have been a lot worse.
We Need Hive13 Members to Volunteer - Hive13 is a Do-ocracy -
WHY should I get involved? Because Hive13 is an all volunteer Member Supported organization.
Hive13 does not have any paid staff. Hive13 only gets better when Members Do Something
What's holding you back?
I don't know anything about Lasers. - Chances are good, You will learn something by participating in the rebuild. You will meet interesting people.
I don't have much time. - As the work unfolds we will break down tasks to smaller bits. You will find something that can
