Delve into the world of artist alchemy

Walk into room A212 at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and it’s hard to know where to look first. One side of the room, known as the Digital Fabrication Studio, hums with rows of 3D printers, churning out all types of different objects. Across the room, a large laser engraver etches designs into wood, acrylic and other colored materials. While the machines may seem daunting to newcomers, two seniors, Miguel Caba and Yaqi Cai, are aiming to change that with their newly launched Digital Fabrication Club.
