(cross-posting to a couple of other local LJs)
Periodically, I see posts here asking, "Is there somewhere I can go to do this one thing with a table saw?" Very soon, the answer will be "Yes, if you can schlep your project down to the Union Square area."
A non-profit community workshop/craft space called Artisan's Asylum is opening near Union Square in mid-June - there are actually 2 different spaces: a small classroom/studio a couple blocks from Union Square, and an ENORMOUS workshop very close to Brickbottom Studios (near the intersection of Washington and Rt 28, also close to Union).
They are currently raising funds to get the larger space fully equipped in time for the June 12 opening - the larger equipment (including a CNC mill - VERY HEAVY), currently located in the smaller space, needs to be moved by professionals; funds will also go towards buying materials to finish furnishing the spaces, and buying additional toys. I mean tools.
