Want to learn how to make cool stuff using lasers?

A new weekend course at Cork’s own everyone’s-welcome carpentry workshop Benchspace is offering the opportunity to do just that… and right on time for spooky season too.

“Do you want to explore inventing, creating and re-animating the dead with Lasers? Then this course will cover everything you need to get started!” they say.

“Our next Laser Cutting for Beginners Course is on October 30th and 31st. You can work on any project idea you like, we’ve just used the Halloween theme for fun.”

Participants on the two-day programme (10am to 4pm each day) will learn how to master the software, materials, and laser wood cutting and engraving equipment to create new designs and products.

Each participant will also get one free Day Pass to use the laser cutter on completion of the course.

This is a small, adults-only class and spaces are limited so book your place now (€200 here).
