Digital Fabrication
These are machine hours, not studio hours.
Your included Digital Fabrication time is one combined monthly total across all eligible machines. It does not limit how long you can work elsewhere in your included studio areas during your access schedule.
| Pass | Included Digital Fab time | Laser limit | CNC limit | Advance booking |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hobbyist Daytime | 15 hrs/month | 2 hrs/day | 3 hrs/day | 1 day |
| Hobbyist Nights + Weekends | 15 hrs/month | 2 hrs/day | 3 hrs/day | 1 day |

The monthly allowance is shared across your eligible Digital Fabrication machines. It is not a separate allowance for each machine. Professional passes include Trotec Speedy 400 access after certification. Hobbyist passes can add Speedy 400 access for $40/month. Additional Digital Fabrication time is $20/hour, $40 for 5 hours or $70 for 10 hours.
Applies to every pass
A few important access rules.
Studio availability during workshops
Scheduled workshops reserve the studio or equipment they use. Pass holders can use another available area or plan their visit outside that workshop time.
Visit during your pass hours
Daytime and Nights + Weekends passes follow their listed times. Anytime and Pottery pass holders may come whenever NewMakeIt is open.
Training and booking still apply
Access to a studio does not replace required safety training or equipment certification. Some machines must also be booked.
Pottery uses a separate pass
The Pottery Access Pass is limited to the Pottery Studio. Pottery is not included with Hobbyist, Professional or Entrepreneur Access Passes.
