The Edgerton Center Student Shop provides training in the use of machine tools, access to them and guidance in project planning, to any current MIT student. The monthly training program is conducted in the evenings and consists of twelve hours of hands on instruction, showing the basics of milling and lathe work by making two small parts. Students with adequate experience and a familiarity with machining may gain access by taking a safety lecture which is offered every other week.

 

For more information regarding our training classes, send an email to mdbelang@mit.edu.  

Shop equipment consists of 3 Bridgeport millers, 2 EZ-trak CNC mills, HAAS CNC lathe, 4 metal lathes, bandsaw, drill presses, belt sander and many hand tools.

We also offer a Dimension 3D Printer for student use. This machine can be used for a fee. It prints with ABS Plastic and can be seen by visiting the shop during normal hours.
