Projects Page Here are some projects we like. Making any of these projects will help you build your skills with the Laser, the 3D printer, or both. We've grouped them into Easy, Medium, and Advanced. Easy projects are great for people who have completed the the Intro class and don't require a lot of work beyond running the machines. The projects here have been tested, and often created by BARN members.
