-# VHS Laser Cutter 
- 
-One of VHS' most popular tools, our [80W CO2 Laser Cutter](/wiki/tools/redsail_cm1080_laser_cutter), and the associated [filtration system](/wiki/tools/laserfilter), is managed by the [Laser Cutter Committee (LCC)](wiki:committees:lcc). The laser cutter area is located just past the entrance to the paint and mess room, along the west wall of the space.
