Access

We're open Monday through Friday when classes are in session. Our last day of operation in Spring 2017 is May 2. Ninja schedule 2017 Spring v8.bmp


The Maker Ninjas (student workers) and faculty members responsible for the operation of the MakerSpace are listed under People, and users with special requests are encouraged to contact them.

Users with special need to access the Maker Space should get in touch with the Director or one of the Advisors, who are listed under People

Training

Preventing injury to people (and equipment) is our first priority. To do this, users must demonstrate knowledge and competence. Users can earn a "badge" that certifies their competence. The various badges, and the equipment authorized by that badge, can be found here: PPE

Along with the badge, the user's RFID card will be recognized to turn on power to equipment. For example, a user who's completed the requirements for the Metal-1 badge will be allowed to use the drill press, vertical band saw, and some of the portable tools.

Information on basic training, and on the badges that can be earned to use power tools, can be found at Badges and Training
