Holiday Head Start
Get your holiday projects started now in the Makerspace.
Beginning in July, the Makerspace will have featured projects for you to accomplish and extra help to get your custom creations done long before December. Yes, we are encouraging you to not procrastinate and we'll help you get your projects done early so you (and our staff) don't experience the extra holiday stress later this year.
View our main page at mcdl.info/Makerspace to see all the equipment we offer and watch videos on how to use the items. Remember, appointments are highly encouraged!
Below are a few projects we will have ready for you in July to help you begin using the space and get gift giving in the bag early!
