    Bonus Fun Fact:

    In the classic science fiction fantasy film Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, legendary sound designer Ben Burtt created the stomping sound effects for the iconic AT-AT Walkers by recording an industrial metal sheet cutter and mixing it with the recorded sound of artillery shell explosions. While the metal sheet cutter in question may not have been a laser cutter, it paves the way for an intriguing concept: what rich palette of science fiction sound effects that can be crafted with our OMTech Fiber Laser Cutter
