Located in Jubel Hall, the Spartan Light Metal Products Makerspace is where Washington University students, faculty, and staff will bring innovative ideas to life and join together to develop ideas that will impact the community and the world.

We welcome both those who are new to making and experienced makers into a collaborative and multidisciplinary environment.

The makerspace is divided into two sections: the Studio Space and the Advanced Machine Shop.

Studio Space

Equipment access is available to all faculty, staff, and students who complete the online member orientation.

Advanced Machine Shop

Equipment access is restricted to individuals who have received advanced machinist training and approval from Dennis Tapella.


STUDIO SPACE HOURS
MONDAY – THURSDAYFRIDAY – SUNDAY
10 AM – 8 PM12 PM – 5 PM
Spring semester schedule. View our calendar for closures due to holidays and University breaks.

For all equipment, you should complete the associated training before coming in. Members can do walk-ins for general consultations or use simple hand tools. For power tools and more advanced equipment (like the laser cutter and Bantam mini-mill), an appointment is required to use the equipment.
