New to the community. Well it finally arrived after 72 days. My New Glowforge Pro.
I got it connected today for the first time. and just looked around and reviewed settings, designs and of course the manual. I finally got around to trying to us

e it. This was my first print. turned out okay but was not lined up correctly so little off. Hey practice makes perfect right.
If anyone has any links for classes on 3 dimensional printing, abobe 3 dimensional graphics, I would love to sign up for some classes and just practice more.
thank you,

Hello and welcome!!

@celesteprobichaux has given great advice. Come here and explore the community. There are 7 categories. You can research the entire GF community or the individual categories.

The forums can be intimidating and often confusing for new owners. Since there are seven categories and seven days a week —-I would break it down and choose a different category every day. Ask questions and make comments.

When you are not lasering — make a bowl of popcorn, get comfy in a favorite chair and start reading. Watch YouTube videos and join a GF Facebook group.

Here a few links to get you started.

The Glowforge community has many talented, creative and very intelligent members and we are here to help each other.
