Makerspaces promote collaboration and knowledge-sharing among members. People from different backgrounds and skill levels can work together, learn from each other, and contribute their expertise to various projects.

This includes 3D printers, laser cutters, cricut cutters,  Arduinos, Raspberry Pi, soldering stations, woodworking tools, sewing machines, Digital Cameras, Podcasting kits, and much more. 

Makerspaces emphasize experiential learning and skill development. Members can learn through practical, hands-on experience, gaining proficiency in various techniques and technologies.

Makerspaces encourage members to explore their creativity and push the boundaries of traditional disciplines. It's a place where new ideas can be transformed into tangible prototypes and products.

Makerspaces are conducive to rapid prototyping and iteration. Members can quickly build, test, and refine their ideas, leading to faster innovation cycles. 

Makerspaces foster a sense of community among members who share a passion for making and creating. Makerstaff often host workshops, classes, and events that promote skill-sharing and networking.

Makerspaces attract people from various fields, such as engineering, art, design, computer science, information technology, business, media arts, nursing, education, and more. This cross-disciplinary mix often leads to unique and innovative projects that blend different expertise areas.
