Wood Shop
Even with the best CNC Fabrication equipment at hand, sometimes the old-fashioned tools are the best for the job.
The Maker Hub is equipped with a range of power and hand tools, and staff is on hand to make sure you are comfortable using them.
Check out our Workshops and Events page for Orientation and Introductory Sessions on our Power Tools.
