Join us for our open nights every Wednesday and be part of a culture that celebrates learning by doing, experimenting, and making.

Electronics

We have several highly skilled members in our community who can support you with your electronic prototyping. Our maker space is equipped with all the tools you need for anything from basic to advanced electronics, available for use while you’re in the space.

3D Printing

Bring your ideas — or even your 3D models — and we’ll help you bring them to life. Our 3D printer is capable of running for extended periods, so multi-day prints are no problem. Just be sure to bring or purchase your own filament.

Welding

We offer a complete MIG welding setup capable of working with most metals. Our trained hosts are available to help you get started and support you throughout your metalworking journey.

Woodworking

At MakerLabs, we also celebrate working with natural materials. Bring your project, cut some wood, and create something amazing. With a wide range of tools available, you’ll have everything you need to tackle most DIY projects.

AND Much More!

We’re always excited to welcome new skills and tools into our community! If you have talents to share or equipment to contribute, we’d love to have you be part of our journey.
