Do not bump the machine while it is running, the magnetic safeties are sensitive and will kill the laser if it thinks the lid is open.

The Laser Cutter is expensive and dangerous. DO NOT leave it unattended. Things can start on fire.
Some jobs take a long time to run. If you need to run to the bathroom or something, find someone to watch it for you.
