Glowforgers in the greater Los Angeles area?
OOOOOhhhhh. Well, title change then. Maybe more local ones wouldn’t need to wait that long. Anybody have feelings on a larger gathering?
I say meet up in Vegas… Glow-Con or Forge-Con
NEGFUG (New England)?
Maybe we should do Seattle so that maybe some of the glowforge team could pop by?
Since you are in the Boulder area, have you been contacted by those in Fort Collins?
The Glowforge Map has 3 in Fort Collins and another 10 or so in Denver/Boulder area.
Do you try the makers in the Denver/Boulder area?
Guess a logical starting point is to gather input from those willing to participate…
Colorado forgers, what thinks the group? Just a meet up for brunch, or figure out a member to host a laser party?
Personal opinion here (and don’t let me stop you), but I really hate anything that uses “UG” in the acronym. It reminds of… well… “Ugh!”.
I was going to suggest a Canadian meetup of Glowforge Lightsmiths!
Anyone take the google map and use all the points of members to interpolate the midpoint for everyone ( preferrably the bahamas?)
Vermont. I think there’s someone else on the map.
Gonna be pretty virtual.
On the other hand, we all have a lot of wood around…
Count me in.
If people who want to attend list
- the continental scope they’re willing to travel and
- their own location,
I’ll painstakingly enter the details
ie.-
US,CA,MX - Edmonton, Canada
I’ve only been chatting with a handful of Colorado locals, none in Fort Collins yet. For GFUGs, I was imagining a monthly-or-so evening for getting together in small groups to chat about problem-solving, show off projects, and share excess materials (say, the admission “price” would be ten or more small laserable items to share, such as tiles, stones, wooden earring blanks, etc.).
Clever site! Each region should use one of their maps.
I’m in! Looking forward to meeting folks in person. Getting together socially pre-GF would be fun, then perhaps rotating hosts once was they are in-hand.
I’m totally down with participating and even helping with a Deep south GFUG. Looks like Atl would be a good place as that is a hot spot for owners.
Any other Maryland, or Northern Virginia folks?
As found at Glowforge Map, North America shows this:
Now this is only self reporting owners (not from Glowforge staff or company).

You can zoom in to get a better visual at the Glowforge Map link. You are not required to login (unless you want to add your location).
TIP: Don’t use your specific address (if you add yourself), but maybe the closest major or secondary intersecting streets.
I am in MD - Laurel
I’m in Lanham, I’m hoping that a number of us in the MD/NOVA area might be able to get together after we get our GF and compare notes, tips, tricks, and ideas.
