We have two laser cutters where you can cut wood and some plastics. Unfortunately they’re not advanced enough to take over the world.

Training is required to use these machines. Members get a set amount of free time on the lasers each month. Members can pay for additional time.

This is an open area with extra space so you can work on larger projects. Need to work on your car in the middle of a snowstorm? We’ve got you covered.

Generally we ask that projects are gone by the end of the day but if you need to leave it longer, make a pitch to our membership on our google groups list.

This area contains some of the larger woodworking tools such as:

-Table saw
-Planer (Jet JPM-13CS)
-Thickness planer (Ryobi AP1301)
-Table saw (Craftex CX201)
-Drum Sander (General International 15-250 M1)

There is a dust collection system so you can use these tools without making too big a mess.

This area has surfaces so you can work with some of the smaller hand tools.

Here is where the most important tool for making is located: The coffee machine! We also have a selection of other drinks and snacks in our vending machines. Just remember, the fridge is for food, not science.

A nice quiet place to think or have a meeting. The Calgary Steampunk Assemblage helped us set this room up.
