Woodshop
We have a pretty well-equipped woodshop. Larger tools include: SawStop table saw, compound miter saw, large bandsaw, planer, jointer, large drum sander, edge belt sander, drill press, and multiple lathes. We have a large collection of hand tools. We also have two woodshop CNCs: a ShopBot that can take 4’x8′ sheets and a smaller Romax CNC.
3D Printing
We run a lab of 3D printers. Our primary tool is a set of six Prusa i3 MK3S+ printers but we have additional printers on hand.
Vinyl Cutting
We have some donated smaller Silhouette machines but our main vinyl cutter is the larger Expert II LX. We have flat / shirt and hat heat presses in screen printing that work well for heat transfer vinyl.
Screen Printing
We have a Merchmakr screen printing system and heat presses. We also have some equipment for dye sublimation but have not set it up yet.

Our sewing shop has sewing machines including multiple heavy duty industrial machines, sergers, a Babylock embroidery machine, space for material cutting, and a lot of donated fabric and supplies.
Machine Shop / Metal Shop / Welding
We have a Tormach CNC, vertical mill, multiple lathes, grinders, MIG and TIG welding station, CNC plasma cutter, handheld plasma cutter, bandsaws, tubing bender, drill press, and a media blasting cabinet. We recently (early 2024) received a large donation of a large box/finger brake, roll bender, notcher, a Piranha ironworker, and other equipment and are working to get it set up.
