Seattle rain is here!

When using power tools outdoors, keep tools, cords, and electrical connections dry, and always use GFCI protection. Never use tools that are wet or damaged.

Stay safe, and when the weather gets too wet, take a rain check!

We’re excited to share that the West Seattle Tool Library has received a $1,000 Neighborhood Grant from The Starbucks Foundation!

Thank you, Starbucks , for recognizing the work happening here in WSTL and helping us put more tools, skills, and resources into the hands of our neighbors.

Here’s to stronger, more connected communities!

Fall is in the air—and apples are everywhere!

Got an apple tree that’s working overtime? Turn that fall harvest into fresh homemade c***r with a c***r press from the West Seattle Tool Library!

Because really, who needs to own a c***r press 365 days a year? Borrow it when you need it. Return it when you’re done. That’s what the Tool Library is all about.

Get the c***r press: https://wstl.myturn.com/library/inventory/browse?q=c***r+press

You know what’s coming, Seattle…rainy season is almost here! Now’s a great time to clean those gutters, clear leaves and debris, check for leaks, and make sure your home is ready for wet weather.

Need a ladder, shop vac, caulk gun, or other tool? Check WSTL before heading to the hardware store!

Meet Toby! He's been teaching our milling class for 4 months now, and he's awesome at it. By day he runs his own construction company, but he still makes time for WSTL because he believes in community support and loves helping people get comfortable using tools.

Outside the shop, you'll find him coaching Little League Baseball, hanging out with his pets, and off fishing somewhere.

Thanks, Toby, for sharing your time and skills with our community!

We received a special member testimonial this month, and we love hearing how WSTL helped make a big project possible.

"We sanded and refinished the existing cabinets, installed new LVP flooring, brand new trim/baseboards, new countertops, new lighting, and are currently waiting to get the new backsplash and a microwave/hood combo installed above the range.

Thanks again for what you guys do at the WSTL, without you guys we would have been buying these tools that we definitely didn't need to have full time. You guys are a lifesaver!"

Ever been curious about 3D printing but not sure where to start?

We’re thinking about putting together a beginner 3D printing class at WSTL and wanted to see if anyone would be interested!

And while we’re asking—what other tools, skills, or projects would you like to learn about? Or maybe you have a skill you’d love to share and teach a class? Let us know in the comments! We can help you get a class set up.

Did you know we've got fun, hands-on classes at the West Seattle Tool Library?

Bring your dull tools to our Tool Sharpening Class and learn how to get those edges back in shape. Or, if you've been curious about crochet, our beginner-friendly Crochet Class walks you through the basics while you make a simple bookmark.

Two great ways to pick up a new skill and meet fellow makers. Reserve your spot at wstools.org/classes
