[[Laser Cutter Instructions and Workflow]]

[[Laser cutter reservation system]]

===Materials===

The Laser Cutter can cut, engrave, and mark a number of materials.

== '''NEVER CUT THESE MATERIALS''' ==

*PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride) : Also known as "vinyl" "pleather" "artificial leather." Emits pure chlorine gas when cut! Don't ever cut this material as it will ruin the optics, cause the metal of the machine to corrode, and ruin the motion control system.
*Polycarbonate : Also known as "Lexan". Polycarbonate is also often found as flat, sheet material. The case cover window on the laser cutter is made of Polycarbonate because polycarbonate strongly absorbs infrared radiation! This is the frequency of light the laser cutter uses to cut materials, so it is very ineffective at cutting polycarbonate. Polycarbonate can also emit flame and chlorine gas when cut, making it a poor choice for laser cutting.
*ABS : ABS does not cut well in a laser cutter. It tends to melt rather than vaporize, and has a higher chance of catching on fire and leaving behind melted gooey deposits on the vector cutting grid. It also does not engrave well (again, tends to melt). Finally, ABS emits cyanide when cut.
*HDPE : "milk bottle" plastic. It melts. It gets gooey. It catches on fire. Don't use it.
*PolyStyrene Foam : It catches fire, it melts, and only thin pieces cut. This is the #1 material that causes laser fires!!!
*Fiberglass : It's a mix of two materials that cant' be cut. Glass (etch, no cut) and epoxy resin (fumes)
*Coated Carbon Fiber: Again, it's a mix of two materials. Thin carbon fiber mat can be cut, with some fraying. However, once coated with epoxy it will emit noxious fumes.
==Safe Materials==
The laser can cut or etch. The materials that the laser can cut materials like wood, paper, cork, and some kinds of plastics. Etching can be done on almost anything, wood, cardboard, aluminum, stainless steel, plastic, marble, stone, tile, and glass.
*Cutting
**Many woods up to 1/4" thick. Composite woods like plywood contain glue, and may not laser cut as well as solid wood. Engineered woods like MDF are okay to use but may experience a higher amount of charring when cut. Be very careful about cutting oily woods, or very resinous woods as they also may catch fire.
**Paper cuts very very well on the laser cutter, and also very quickly. Thin paper and single layer card stock and cardboard are perfectly OK. Thicker cardboard, carton, and other papers also cut very well but need to be watched to make sure they don't catch fire.
**Cork cuts nicely, but the quality of the cut depends on the thickness and quality of the cork. Engineered cork has a lot of glue in it, and may not cut as well. Cork thicker than 1/4" should be avoided.
**Acrylic (also known as Lucite, Plexiglas, PMMA) cuts extremely well on the laser cutter, leaving a beautifully polished edge. With care, acrylic material up to 1/2" thick can be cut on the laser cutter.
**Delrin (POM) in thin sheets does cut. Delrin comes in a number of shore strengths (hardness) and the harder delrin tends to work better. Great for gears!
**Kapton tape (Polyimide) : Works well, in thin sheets and strips like tape. 1/16" thick is about as thick as you can cut reliably.
**Mylar : Works well if it's thin. Once you get too far past 1/16" thick mylar has a tendency to warp, bubble, and curl. Gold coated mylar will not work.
**Solid Styrene : Smokes a lot when cut, but can be cut. Keep it thin (1/16")
**Depron foam: Used a lot for hobby, RC aircraft, architectural models, and toys. 1/4" cuts nicely, with a smooth edge. Must be constantly monitored when cutting.
**Gator foam: foam core gets burned and eaten away compared to the top and bottom hard paper shell. Not a fantastic thing to cut, but it can be cut if watched.
**Cloth (leather, suede, felt, hemp, cotton, polyester, but NEVER vinyl or pleather-- see above) They all cut well. Leather is very hard to cut, but can be if it's thinner than a belt (call it 1/8")
**Magnetic Sheet material cuts beautifully
**NON-CHLORINE containing rubber is fine for cutting.
**Teflon (PTFE) in thin sheets
**Carbon fiber mats/weave that has not yet had epoxy applied can be cut, very slowly. You must not cut carbon fiber that has been coated!!
*Etching
All the above can be etched, in some cases very deeply. In addition, you can etch:
**Glass (green seems to work best) .. looks sandblasted. Only FLAT GLASS can be engraved in our cutter. No round or cylindrical items.
**Ceramic tile
**Anodized aluminum ( vaporizes the anodization away )
**Painted/coated metals ( vaporizes the paint away )
**Stone : Marble, Granite, Soapstone, Onyx. Gets a white "textured" look when etched
*Marking
There expensive coating called 'cermark'. This marking compound costs $100 for a small bottle, and must be diluted with ethanol and applied to metal (not ceramics or stone) before being etched to leave behind a permanent dark black mark.

Ashanan: /* Current 300SoF */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

==What is it?==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

==When and Where does it happen?==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One. (doors open at 6ish)

==Why are we doing this?==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

==How can I participate?==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Anne (@[http://twitter.com/onthelevel onthelevel] on twitter or anne @ pumpingstationone.org) or add your talk to the Current section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

Right now, we're running this off-the-cuff. If we find ourselves pushing the hour limit, we may restrict sign-ups and/or schedule people for later months.

==How can I attend?==

=== About ===

Pumping Station: One has an IRC channel on Freenode:

server: irc.freenode.net
channel: #pumpingstationone

The channel's useful for talking to members and parts of our outlying non-member community.

If you have a problem, voiced (people with a + symbol) users should be able to help you.

=== IRC integration ===

There have recently been a few projects done to integrate the channel into the physical space better; Spacemon to monitor the space and provide busyness information of the physical space on the IRC channel, and Chatmon to display activity summary information for the IRC channel in the physical space.
