MakersLAB.TV S1E6 - Designer Guns Engraving, All Kinds of Media Paper and Why Training is Important

The importance of training

Training is very imperative due to the fact that it will assist you to have knowledge of your machine and how to go about using it.

We advise that you book for training right after you have purchased your machine.

Training also assists you on the maintenance of your machine so that it is longer lasting. An example of this is a breakdown of the printhead that results from negligence or cleaning and incorrectly using the printhead. Most printhead malfunctions come from user error.

AM will also train you on the different vinyl paper that you can utilize to print.

What about the Custom-made paintball gun?

The TruCUT CO2 laser cutter and engraver was used to customize the paintball gun. A nice contrast was simply created by using a silver design on the black gun which came out looking pretty cool.
