Welcome! If you have not already taken the laser training class, your next step is to find a scheduled laser training class and sign up for it (there’s a link in the details for each class). Only people who have completed the training may sign up for time on the laser. If you completed the class before Covid, on the old RetinaEngrave3D software, you may choose to take a quicker refresher class instead of the full basic operation and safety class.

We are still working out the exact details for reserving laser time at the new (2025) Colab location. The procedure and calendar below may or may not be used.

This calendar is read-only. In order to schedule time on the laser, please fill out this short form. A volunteer will review your request (usually within a few hours) and get back to you. When your request is approved, you’ll not only have time reserved on the laser, but also a Colab key holder will have committed to be there to open the building for you. If no key holder is available for the time(s) you request, they’ll try to find a mutually agreeable time for you to use the laser.
