General Information

MakeICT's FabLab is an open 300 sq ft area dedicated to fabrication and rapid prototyping. Here is where you can test ideas, and concepts before moving on to more expensive materials or processes. Or, simply enjoy the creative process and see what you can make. The FabLab currently houses 3D printers, foam cutter, and LASER engraver/cutter.

Per MakeICT policy, all machinery and tools require prior instruction and certification before use. We want all our members and guests to be safe, and the equipment kept in top condition so all can enjoy.

Bryan Barr is the Benevolent Dictator over the FabLab.

Mike Doolittle is the FabLab BU - backup.

FabLab Area Safety

  1. Do not use any machine you are not trained on and comfortable using. If at any time you are unsure of what you are doing, stop immediately and ask for help.
  2. Do not use any machine that is not in good working order. Stop, unplug and leave a note on the machine and notify the FabLab BD OR Mike Doolittle.
  3. NEVER ASSUME A TOOL IS PROPERLY ADJUSTED. Always check the tool prior to use.
  4. NEVER MODIFY OR HACK THE 3D PRINTER, FOAM CUTTER OR LASER CUTTER.
