2025 Workshop 88 Makerspace 360° Virtual Tour
The Makerspace Visitors are first greeted by our charming entrance, then our charming members. Our creative and knowledgeable community is one of our greatest strengths (not pictured here). Entrance The makerspace is divided into five areas, the first is the general meeting room. This area is primarily used for meetings, classes, laser cutting/engraving, 3D printing, crafts, and projects. Main Room The next area is the workshop / woodshop where makers can do just about anything enabled by a wide array of hand and power tools. Woodshop At the far end of the workshop you’ll find the Shapeoko CNC machine you’ll start to see some of our metal working tools. Far End Of The Workshop The electronics lab hosts tools and supplies for projects of all sizes and skill levels, from basic breadboard circuits to SMD PCB fabrication, from Arduino to Raspberry Pi and beyond. This is one of the most used areas in the makerspace. Electronics Lab The metal shop not only houses our Atlas lathe, SIEG manual/CNC mill, metalworking tools, and supplies but we also have a good inventory of metrology equipment for precision measurement. Metal Shop And finally we come to the storage area where we keep everything that does not belong in the rest of the space. Here, members store personal supplies and projects alongside club projects and Workshop 88 surplus inventory including extra tools, equipment, 3D printers, robotic arms, CNC machines, a robot skeleton that can play a Theremin, and more.
