The Kaitian CM1309 is Noisebridge's BIG laser cutter. It was so big that walls had to be removed to get it through the door from our elevator at 2169.

Kaitian CM1309

Some friends of Noisebridge from China have donate a really nice brand new, fully supported, laser cutter to Noisebridge!

You need training to use this laser; see the Laser Manual for details.

In February of 2016 we were approached by Beijing Kaitian Tech. Co., Ltd, after Mitch gave them a tour of Noisebridge they offered us a new 100w laser cutter as a donation (with the stipulation of us taking care of shipping costs). As of July 1st 2016 (and after a crazy adventure involving a rental truck, a forklift, and a lot of Indian pizza), we now have the laser in house. Please check out our action items to see what needs to happen next.
