Yes, the laser cutters cab be reserved by staff. Pay attention, reservation must be done well in advance! You can reserve through our reservation tool. Make sure you'll be at your appointment on time, as we only keep your reservation for 10 minutes, after that it will be canceled and you'll have to join the waiting cue.
