I'd try pvdthings, they're on ig and stuff. The idea is it's like a library but for tools. So you pay a membership to use tools that are super useful but niche. Stuff most people use once and then never again, or they just don't have a place to store it so it's not worth buying. For example like a pressure washer, or a car dent removal kit, or a ladder or something.

They likely have woodworking tools, though I doubt they have a shop. The people that run it are chill. Other than that I'd look into the Steelyard, this art space north of Atwells. I don't think they have a woodworking shop there but I'm sure they know where the shops are, if there are any.

PVDThings sounds awesome if I had access to a shop but unfortunately since I'm in an apartment i can't really do it here :(

I'll definitely call both of those places tho and see what they're about for future reference or if they know anything about local shops! Thanks for the recommendations

I have a half-decent home woodshop if you just need some space to make the occasional project. I'm not running weekly classes or open shop hours over here, but if there's something you need to get done feel free to PM and we can talk.

Jointer, planer, table saw, sliding miter saw, drill press for the bigger machines, then all your standard smaller things orbital and pad sanders, circular saw, track saw, drills, drivers, grinders, biscuit joiner, bench grinder, loads of clamps, etc.

There's several around, but it's more of a friend type situation. Dm me and we can discuss further
