* [http://machinesroom.org/machines-workspaces Machines Room] is a short distance from Hackspace, just along the canal. They have a small Epilog laser and are commissioning a larger HPC. Costs are higher than the hackspace but still based on you doing the work, so fairly cheap by comparison with service jobs. Attendance at a training session and membership of the Machines Room is required. They will quote for work done for you, and have a shopbot CNC router too for heavier work. Opening hours are normal business hours. They also keep some material stocks. | * [http://machinesroom.org/machines-workspaces Machines Room] is a short distance from Hackspace, just along the canal.
