Your session, your agenda.
There is no canned curriculum. Tell us what you are making and where you get stuck, and we build the day around it. A few of the things people ask for:
From request to hands on the machine.
Send a request
Fill out the short request form with your location, your machine and what you want to learn.
Plan it with your trainer
Your trainer reaches out to talk through your goals so the session is built around you.

Learning beats guessing.
Videos and manuals get you far. Standing at the machine with someone who runs these lasers every day gets you there faster, and you skip the expensive trial and error.
Before you book
How much does hands-on training cost?
A 4 hour session is $600 and an 8 hour session is $1,000. Both are one-on-one and in person.
What will training cover?
Whatever you need. Every session is customized, and your trainer talks with you before you book to plan the day around your goals, your materials and the projects you want to make.
How is this different from the free training with my machine?
Every Thunder machine includes one free hour of one-on-one remote training. Hands-on training is in person and runs 4 or 8 hours, so there is time to go deeper and practice with a trainer right beside you.
Do I need to bring materials?
We provide basic materials to practice on. If you have a specific material you plan to sell on, mention it on your request and we will talk through it when we plan your session.
How do I schedule?
Fill out the request form and pick the location closest to you. Your trainer reaches out to plan the session and set a date.
Still have questions?
Email [email protected] or call 903-522-4070. If your machine is down and you need help now, email [email protected] so our tech team can jump in.
