As we reopen our doors on 2/22/22 at 2:00pm, you may notice some changes in the MakerSpace! More than a fresh coat of paint and newly redone concrete floors, we are excited to share lots of updates and upgrades to equipment, hours, online reservation system, circulating maker kits and on-demand equipment tutorials:
New Equipment:
-
Two new Trotec laser cutters that are more powerful, faster, and larger.
-
Two new dual extrusion Ultimaker 3d printers, and a Formlabs resin printer that bring industrial quality 3d printing capabilities for our patrons.
-
A new X-Carve CNC router that is both much faster and larger than our previous CNC machine. This machine is now in the CNC Router room (formerly the Sound Booth) in the MakerSpace.
-
Larger and better quality monitors on most of our PCs in the MakerSpace, which is extremely helpful when doing 2D/3D design, video editing, etc.
-
Higher quality Hakko induction soldering setup, and a more powerful fume extractor for soldering.
-
A new US Cutter vinyl cutter with vacuum hold down and optical lens.
