Overview

The Epilog Challenge is back for its fifth installment!

We've teamed up with Epilog Laser to give away a Zing 16 Laser. The Epilog Zing 16 Laser is an awesome machine: you can engrave and cut a wide variety of materials with pinpoint precision. It's a huge help to anyone starting a small business, or to someone who just loves making fantastic things.

So how do you win the Epilog Challenge? Post an Instructable that shows off your amazing skills and creativity, and proves that you'll make good use of an Epilog Zing 16 Laser. Document your project with lots of great photos, and provide clear instructions so others can learn from your work. And be sure to tell us what you'll do with the Zing if you win!
