Access Pass

NewMakeIt Access Passes

Make here.
Build what’s next.

Choose the schedule and level that fit the way you make. Your pass gives you access to its included studio areas throughout your selected access times, not just a small bank of monthly studio hours.

The most important thing to know

Your studio access is not counted in monthly hours.

The 15, 20, 25 or 30 hours shown later on this page apply only to included Digital Fabrication equipment time. Your pass lets you work in its included studio areas throughout your access schedule, as long as the area is open and is not being used for a workshop.

Step 1

Choose when you want to make.

These schedules apply to both Hobbyist and Professional passes. Access is always during NewMakeIt’s posted operating hours.

Applies to every pass

A few important access rules.

01

Workshops take priority.

If a workshop is running in an area you want to use, that area is unavailable to pass holders for the duration of the workshop.

02

Use your selected schedule.

Daytime and Nights + Weekends passes follow their listed times. Anytime and Pottery pass holders may come whenever NewMakeIt is open.

03

Certification still applies.

Access to a studio does not replace required safety training or equipment certification. Some machines must also be booked.

04

Pottery is the one area-specific pass.

The Pottery pass is limited to the pottery studio. Hobbyist, Professional and Entrepreneur passes include pottery and the other studio areas.

Questions

Quick answers before you join.

Does my pass limit how many hours I can be in the studio?
No. You may use your included studio areas throughout your pass schedule. The monthly hour allowances apply only to Digital Fabrication equipment time.
Can I use an area while a workshop is running there?
No. Workshops take priority. You will need to use another available area or return after the workshop has finished.
Does a Hobbyist or Professional pass include pottery?
Yes. Hobbyist, Professional and Entrepreneur passes include access to pottery and the other studio areas during the pass schedule. The Pottery pass is limited to pottery only.
Can my employees or collaborators work with me?
Entrepreneur pass holders may arrange access for more than one person. Contact NewMakeIt with the number of people you expect to bring so the team can confirm the right setup.
Do I need certification before using equipment?
Yes, where required. Your pass provides access, but you must still complete the applicable safety training or certification before independently using certain equipment.
Can I use the lasers and CNC machines when I sign up?
Yes, but you must complete the required certification before using the lasers or CNC machines independently. Equipment must also be reserved where applicable. Professional passes include Trotec Speedy 400 access after certification. Hobbyist Access Pass Holders can add Speedy 400 access for an additional $40 per month.
