Cutting Table

The 4' x 8' cutting table is perfect for laying out and cutting your textile projects. The Textiles space also comes equipped with a variety of cutting tools, which have a few firm rules of their own:

• Fabric scissors are for cutting fabric ONLY.
• No using paint, markers, glue, or any other adhesives on the cutting mat. These things should be done on the work tables in the adjacent room.
• Use only the force needed to get through your material. Do not gouge the cutting mat.
• Never iron material on the cutting mat. The heat from the iron will destroy the self-healing properties of the mat and cause significant warping.

You can also use the Epson printer with some printable heat transfer paper to create full color designs!

Note: We do not stock heat transfer paper, but you can buy it online!

Button Press

One of the most demanded items in the Makerspace is a set of robust button presses.
