Laser Cutting with Illustrator

Whether you barely know Illustrator or have never touched the laser cutters (or you just want to come and make something with us) this class is a good starting point. In this class you will learn the basic use of Illustrator in regards to laser cutting while making a fun and easy project you will be able to take home with you. You will also be walked through the process of using the laser cutters in the lab so that next time you come by, you will know exactly what to do and how!

Note: Illustrator must be installed prior to this workshop. Duke students can download the software for free under the Adobe Creative Cloud link here:

This class assumes that you have opened Illustrator before and know where most tools are located in the interface, but you do not need extensive experience of the program.
