The Spark

Igniting the imagination through cooperative learning

Laser Cutting

Take your ideas and turn them into real, tangible creations with our professional laser cutter. Users must go through training and then can book appointments to use the Laser. Note: the Spark does not supply consumable materials. Users must bring their own materials for cutting, and there is currently no charge to use the laser cutter. However, materials must be approved for use in the laser.
