    My local library has a couple 3d printers, random physical things you can check out (including power tools and a couple Nintendo Switches), they do little maker / art events, in addition to obviously you can go by and chill or do work without having to buy a coffee. Honestly libraries are so wonderful that it’s not surprising that some Powers That Be are starting to catch on and try to make life difficult for them. It’s like a little glimpse of a better world you can go and experience any time you want.

      My library has a whole mini maker space in it. FDM 3D printers, tons of textile stuff, a knock-off cricut, and a load of simple tools. No bigger equipment for wood or metal working but they have a relationship with a local “tool library” that will check out equipment like that for home use.
