🚧 Buildout Update! 🚧

Big things are happening at Rockwall Makerspace!

The new space is officially coming together, and we’re targeting mid-February for completion. Walls are going up, plans are turning into reality, and the sound of progress is somewhere between power tools and happy makers 😄

We’ll continue sharing updates as we get closer to the finish line—so keep an eye out for progress pics, sneak peeks, and opening details. We can’t wait to welcome you into a bigger, better space built for creating, learning, and making cool stuff together.

Stay tuned… the sparks will be flying soon 🔥

Rockwall Makerspace will be closed through the end of the year. We are looking forward to seeing everyone at our new location in February 2026!

Be sure to follow us for status updates, grand re-opening information , member events, and volunteer opportunities!

Also, stay tuned for the announcement of our 1st annual Used Tool Raffle happing right here on FB - just in time for Christmas!

🚨 Update + Call for Volunteers 🚨

Hey Makers!

We officially have 8 weekends left in 2025, and as of today (Nov 1) — our lease at 1.0 is up.

After some serious pleading (okay, begging 😅), I managed to get our landlord to let us go month-to-month, but we must be completely out by Jan 1. That gives us two months to finish building out 2.0 and pack up 1.0.

We’re going to need all hands on deck to pull this off. Here’s how you can jump in:

⸻

🧹 1. Packing Up 1.0

We need someone to take the lead on organizing a ‘cleaning, sorting, and packing crew’ for each area — woodshop, metal shop, electronics, etc.

December will likely be a full shutdown month while we pack up, and the space won’t be usable.

If you’re interested in leading this effort, message me directly with any supplies or materials you’ll need — I’ll make sure they’re delivered to 1.0.

Members: we need all of your personal supplies, materials, and projects removed ASAP! We will only be moving RMS property - everything else will be tossed!

⸻

🛠️ 2. Construction Help at 2.0

We’ve had a few amazing weekend warriors showing up consistently (you know who you are 🙌), but we need more people to help us hit our move-in goal.

If you’ve got skills in carpentry, plumbing, electrical, or HVAC, we’d love for you to lead a small team or just jump in and help wherever needed.

Join us on our Discord if you are interested in helping out:

We’ve come too far to slow down now — let’s finish this year strong and bring Rockwall Makerspace 2.0 to life together. 💪🔥

However, our new members can still stop by and pickup their key fobs. Just text or call me beforehand for building access.

🎉🚙🦆 It’s almost time for one of Rockwall’s biggest traditions — the Rubber Duck Regatta & Jeep Festival at The Harbor! Since 2012, this event has brought together families, friends, and Jeep lovers for music, food, games, and of course… the famous duck race!

📍 Come see us at Rockwall Makerspace Booth #46 on Saturday, October 11th!
We’ll have our Spin-the-Wheel giveaways, cool merch, and info on how you can get involved with our maker community.

💛 Best of all, this festival benefits two amazing local causes: Boys & Girls Club of Northeast Texas and Grace Clinic. So when you come out, you’re not just having fun—you’re helping our community.

🎶 Live music, Jeep Show & Shine, Kids Zone, Food Trucks, Tailgate fun, AND thousands of ducks racing for prizes (including a brand-new Jeep Wrangler 🏆).
