The Industrial Design Shop provides the tools to fabricate both small scale models or full size prototypes and functioning products. Wood, plastics, dense foam, and metals are among the many types of material that can be machined or manipulated. All students must complete a shop orientation course before having access to power tools. At the bottom of this page in the downloads box, you can access a PDF version of the shop handbook.Machines of the shop include: Several band saws of various sizes, a "Sawstop" safety table saw, jointer, thickness planer, various belt, disc, and spindle sanders, a panel saw, several drill presses, wood lathes, a scroll saw, vertical mills, metal lathes, metal tube benders, sheet metal brake, sheet metal shears, vacuum forming machines, and a pizza oven for plastics slumping.Down-draft tables and several work tables for assembly/construction are available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. The tool room has hand tools for student check out during shop hours. The shop houses a spray booth for exclusively water based paints/finishes. Five full time technicians are on staff and available to help students with technical questions about materials and fabrication techniques.

This course is offered to fuel those who pursue their own special talents or inventive faculties. The resulting forms must be designed and built as complete, full-size, and useful prototypes - that is, the first of a series. The only restrictions on form are simple and logical: to be able to execute the project with available materials, tools and personal finance. Furniture, mass production ceramics, lighting, portable structures, and textiles are potential projects.
