In this course, you will be introduced to the capabilities of the S1 laser and how it compares to other lasers. The general components of the laser and the accessories available for use will be explained. The main features of Creative Space (software to design projects and run the laser) will be demonstrated. You will practice with Creative Space and design some simple projects. Importing projects and graphics will be explained. The relationship of the laser settings to the project and the operation of the laser will be introduced. We will then use the laser to produce a few projects. This course is designed to introduce you to the operation of the software and the laser such that you can do simple projects. 

If you want to use the lasers you must understand that they involve over 90% computer time, 10% machine time. If you don’t have basic computer skills, don’t sign up!  This is not a computer basics class. This IS a laser software class. You must be able to load a  USB drive, create and name files and save them where you can find them. 

If you don’t know the basics and still want to sign up, learn them first. 
      This is a laser software class.  The instructor doesn't have the time to teach basic computer skills and still get through software part and the machine parts in the time allowed.
