List of rooms and tools in each!
The space is split into four main sections, with another one on the way. With a plethora of tools and machines in each, it can be easy to lose track of what is where. This is a handy dandy guide to the lay of the Makerspace land. Note that many tools require either a tool specific induction or are covered by the general woodshop induction.
Clean Room
This Room is the main clean-working area in the space. We have space set-up for doing Electronics work, and a big table for whatever (clean) work you've got going on. It's our largest, cleanest and oldest space. Usually, this is where we would hold workshops or other events.
