We offer two wood fabrication studios (wood shops), one in the Art + Architecture Building, our main hub, and one in the Fab Lab, our downtown maker space at 525 North Gay Street. Here, you can use a variety of stationary, hand and power tools to experiment with design and materials, fabricate models, build furniture and more.
The shop in the A+A is about 3,600 square feet and is equipped with three Universal Co2 laser cutters, a Thermwood 3-axis CNC router, a European horizontal panel saw, helix planer and more available to all students. In the Fab Lab, you have access to CNC routers, electric and pneumatic power tools, a Leigh dovetail jig and much more.
From these incredible resources, you learn skills you can’t learn anywhere else, which prepares you for your career and supports your design passion.
