Fiber Arts

Everything from quilting to leatherworking can be done in this station, using basic-to-industrial machines for sewing/serging, cutters, needles, and all the basics needed for your project. We have several sewing machines, serger, and lots of material. Leads are here to help you learn to use the space safely and enjoyably. Classes occur regularly to introduce tools and techniques to both members and non-members, and qualified Spark members may use the shop at any time. To get certified, members should check the "Rules and Access" section below, or talk to one of the Fiber Arts leads, who can be reached by email at [email protected].

Tools

The Spark woodshop leads have assembled instructional guides for the commonly used Spark power tools. These guides are used to teach classes. Members who have woodworking experience and want to get signed off on access to the tools should review these guides and the associated manufacturer's manuals prior to meeting with the Woodshop Leads. More information is available on the Woodshop Access page.

Some tools do not yet had guides and teaching material made. Sometimes, this is because low usage of the tool has not yet justified a guide. In these instances, the guide space reads "E-mail Leads." If you have a need to use these tools, e-mail the Woodshop Leads to set up a time for instruction. Other tools do not yet had guides because the teaching material is still being compiled, as is the case with the CNC machine and the lathes. These tools are marked in red in the table below and are not yet available for student sign-off.
