Yas in Schools has chosen the Silhouette Cameo as the preferred solution for cutting out Formula Ethara Car bodies. This electronic cutting tool is perfect for schools and is a great introduction to basic CAD / CAM / CNC for children. The machine has great potential for other D&T and Art projects in schools aside from Formula Ethara.

Schools can purchase the Silhoutte Cameo from Yas in Schools directly or rent machines from Yas in Schools on a weekly basis
