BLDG 61: Woodshop Tool Appointments

The BLDG 61 woodshop is available by appointment only. No walk-ins can be accepted, so book ahead! Make a Tool Appointment   Sessions are LETTER-CODED based on the level of supervision a specific tool requires. Tools in the ?A? category require the least staff guidance. Tools in the ?B? category require some guidance. And tools in the ?C? category require the most supervision. The machines available in each session are listed below. Staff are not able to change your category. It is up to patrons to select which category provides access to the tools they need. If they do not yet know which tools they need, patrons should attend Open Studio or sign up for Robby's Woodworking Office Hours to make a plan for their project.   A B C Time slots for tools and processes that require little to no supervision while working primarily at the workbench in the shop.
