 +#### CO2 laser safety glasses
 For the Trogdor, Glowforge and Xtool D1 machines, the laser light should be contained by their respective enclosures. The laser “should not” fire if the access doors are open. It is imperative that one does not defeat/bypass the door interlocks such that the laser will fire with the door open. This is dangerous for the operator as well as anyone else who may traverse the immediate area. For the Trogdor, Glowforge and Xtool D1 machines, the laser light should be contained by their respective enclosures.
