General Equipment
Our Equipment
You can come to TechLab during our open hours and access a variety of tools for use within the space. We have a small collection of tools and equipment that do not require any training to use. If you would like training, just let us know and someone in the space can demonstrate proper usage.
Hand Tools
We have a few types of manual saws, hammers, pliers, wrenches, socket sets, vises, clamps, screwdrivers, and more.
Power Tools
TechLab has a Dremel Rotary tool, a power drill and an impact driver for your use.
We also offer a power drill checkout kit with assorted driver and drill bits. Reservations for this kit can be made here.
Materials
We have a small collection of MDF, acrylic, and hardware for folks to use as needed and within reason. We cannot guarantee any particular size or type of material will be available, nor can we guarantee any stocking any particular hardware assets. If you have a specific project you are looking to work on, please plan to bring your own materials.
The same applies to adhesives, tapes, and other consumable that might be needed for the completion of a project. We might have some, but if you want to guarantee availability, you should plan to bring your own.
Due to ventilation concerns, epoxy resins and adhesives may not be used in our space.
Helpful Resources
To learn how to use our equipment, stop by whenever we are open or attend a workshop or event.
