Factory 3 Awarded Grant to Expand and Upgrade Shops
I'm excited to share that Factory 3 has been awarded a grant from the Maine Coworking Development Fund!

With the help of this funding, we’ll be installing the container next to our building, hooking it up to power, and adding a heat-pump based HVAC system. The new space will serve as additional shop space—likely for a CNC router—with plans to eventually build a spray booth inside as well. Alongside this project, the grant is also funding
