Maker Spaces

Many communities have maker spaces in which members access common shop equipment.  For example, in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho,  there is the Gizmo maker space (Link https://www.gizmo-cda.org/).  Gizmo has two excellent CO2 lasers, very good 3D printers, table saws for cutting plastic sheets, drill presses, milling machines, lathes, etc.   Meeting people in a maker space is a good way to network with local entrepreneurs.
