Help us build a new woodshop dedicated to woodworking education! 🪵🪚🛠️
The TCM woodshop is one of the most well-loved areas of our workshop, and we get requests all the time for more opportunities to learn woodworking skills. To be able to offer these classes, we’re building a new space dedicated entirely to education, and we need your help to make it happen!

This project will take new tools, supplies, construction, and more! At the links in our bio, you can donate to fund the project, or purchase new tools/supplies directly from our registry. As a volunteer-driven organization, every bit of help makes a big difference!

Broken appliance or backpack buckle? Bring it in to TCM for our plastics repair clinic!

Plastics are often the first thing to be thrown out when broken, but our volunteers can help you save them from the landfill! Using 3D printers, we can repair and replace broken plastic pieces, giving your items new life!

Our next clinic is this Thursday, 4/16, from 6-8pm. Sign up for a time slot at the link in our bio to bring your item in, and our volunteers will fix your item or help you come up with a repair plan.
