[Michlib-l] Makerspace Equipment Recommendations

[Sarah Marsack (Roseville Public Library)]

Hello Everyone,

Part of our library renovation will include adding a small makerspace and we are deciding which equipment we would like to start with.  We already have a button maker, 3d printing pen, and a Cricut maker 3, heat press, hat press, and mug press but are hoping to get more for the makerspace.  We were considering adding a 3d printer, laser cutter/engraver, and sewing machine and was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for them. Was there any other equipment that you noticed is popular in your library makerspace and would recommend? Was there anything that you regret getting and would suggest avoiding?

Please reply off list, I can compile a list of responses if anyone is interested.

Thanks,

Sarah Marsack
