# How do I book a vinyl cutter?

Vinyl cutting times can be booked via the **[ORB](https://orb.arts.ac.uk)**. 
* To book a collection time visit  **[ORB](https://orb.arts.ac.uk)** on your laptop or desktop and select **[Find Rooms and Spaces](https://orb.arts.ac.uk/lccworkspacesandinductions)**.
* Students will be asked to complete an online quiz the first time they book the vinyl cutter on the **[ORB](https://orb.arts.ac.uk)**. 
* Please book a morning or afternoon slot to use the vinyl cutter.
* It is essential you arrive promptly so there is enough time for you to complete your job. Please bring your files with you on a USB to the appointment. We are currently only accepting .ai illustrator files that have been exported into .dxf format.

* Artboards and/or files should be labelled with the corresponding material/colours to be vinyl cut. 

* Payment will need to be made via the **<a href="https://estore.arts.ac.uk/product-catalogue/london-college-of-communication/3d-workshop/materials/vinyl" target="_top">Estore</a>**. After the job finishes a technician will inform you of your total cost depending on amount of material used.
