The Workshop is a proposed membership-based industrial makerspace bringing professional-grade woodworking, metal fabrication, forging, CNC and digital fabrication together under one roof.
The Workshop is being designed for makers who need more capability than a garage can reasonably provide. The planned model combines 24/7 credentialed facility access, safety certification, equipment reservations, secure tool checkout, project storage, public classes and a member Marketplace.

3D PRINTING & PROTOTYPINGA membership should make sense because it replaces equipment cost, space constraints and shop overhead with access to capability.
Members access approved areas after training and certification. High-risk and high-demand equipment remains subject to operating and reservation policies.
Individual classes and instructor-led projects are planned on a class-by-class basis for the class price plus materials. No membership required.
Certified makers will be able to sell commissioned projects through The Workshop Marketplace, creating another path from skill to income.
Individual classes and instructor-led projects will be available on a class-by-class basis for the class price plus the cost of materials. No membership will be required.
Classes create a low-commitment way to experience the shop, learn safely and decide whether membership makes sense.

Interested in a Day Pass? Join the ListAfter your included 20 shop hours each month, additional general shop access is $15/hour, billed in 15-minute increments ($3.75 per increment). We will alert you before overage starts and request your authorization before charges begin.
Need more time regularly? At standard monthly pricing, 27 hours on Hobbyist would total $254 in dues and overage, compared with $249 for Builder. Enrollment, annual upkeep and other charges are separate.
You may choose to upgrade to Builder before further overage. When upgrading within the same billing month, that month’s Hobbyist overage will be credited toward the membership dues difference.
All users must complete orientation and the certifications required for the equipment they intend to use. Day passes are limited to approved general shop areas between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.; member access follows the applicable membership and certification policies.
Materials, classes, dedicated instruction and designated machine charges are additional. Staff assistance beyond ordinary check-in and general support must be arranged and priced separately.
Access is subject to operating policies, equipment availability and reservations. These are proposed post-opening terms; no passes, memberships or extra hours are being sold through this page.
