Best Makerspace Pomona Near Me

4worldlovers: We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit hackerspace / makerspace and collaborative workspace based in Pomona, CA.

We enjoy giving back to the community by providing a creative space and project help and guidance.

People come to our space to work on projects, explore their inner artists, make cool gadgets, and interact with a community of like-minded individuals.

We are makers, artists, DIYers, hobbyists, combat robot creators, ham radio amateurs, tech enthusiasts and...well... just normal people, doing stuff regular people do. (except MAG Cat, he has cat duties.)

Join us and work on your projects here. Share it. Inspire others! Get inspired. They might share some tips and tricks or even be interested in joining your project. There's a lot of expertise in our members and many are happy to share their knowledge.

And if you don't like us enough to join in holy makermony, you're still welcome visit anytime. Check the calendar, Facebook and Wiki to see what MAGLab is doing.

We have a wall full of general-purpose tools and supplies like screw drivers, tape measures, drills, hammers, saws, and much more

The (partially) sound-insulated presentation room with AC, a projector and whiteboard services our meetings. The electronics room has a lazer cutter, 3d printers, variable power supplies, oscilloscopes, a logic analyzer, soldering iron and other electro-doodads.

The workshop houses a mill, lathe, drill press, grinder, jig saw, forge and other destructive machines. If you're woodworking or metalworking, chances are we have a machine for your needs.

We have a restroom with working toilet, and sink, and running water.

You could say that we have everything and a kitchen sink .

We don't always plan our open hours... The space is open whenever a key member or officer is at the space. Our doors are always open Tuesday and Friday evenings for our business meetings and open project night respectively. There's a public monthly Open House on the last Saturday of every month.

4worldlovers: At Be A Maker Club, we want to ignite the curiosity and passion for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) subjects in young minds through the exciting world of Computer-Aided Design and 3D printing. We firmly believe that STEAM education can be a thrilling journey, and we're dedicated to making it accessible and engaging for all. We aim to empower the next generation of innovators, engineers, and problem solvers by providing them with the tools and knowledge they need to turn their creative ideas into reality.

Learning about 3D printing encourages young minds to unleash their creativity. It’s a canvas where they can turn their wildest ideas into tangible objects. This hands-on approach to design and innovation empowers them to think outside the box and find innovative solutions to real-world problems.

3D printing equips young people with practical problem-solving skills. They learn to dissect complex issues into manageable parts, design solutions, and bring them to life. These skills are invaluable for tackling challenges in any STEM field and beyond.

As our world becomes increasingly tech-driven, understanding 3D printing technology is vital. It demystifies the advanced tools used in various industries and enables young learners to adapt to a tech-savvy world. They gain a deeper understanding of how technology shapes our daily lives.

Learning about 3D printing instills an entrepreneurial spirit in young individuals. They can design and create products, prototypes, and inventions. This fosters a sense of ownership and encourages them to explore opportunities in the world of startups and innovation.

3D printing promotes sustainability. Young people can design products with minimal waste, and they become more conscious of the environmental impact of manufacturing. This knowledge contributes to a generation that cares about sustainable practices.

Understanding 3D printing enhances career readiness. It prepares young people for jobs in STEM-related fields, including design, engineering, and manufacturing. Employers value practical skills, and 3D printing experience is a strong asset on a resume.

We’ve worked on improving the lives of over 10,000 young people through in-person maker practice.

Our unique pedagogical model encourages young people to make 3D objects as a way to learn STEM. Research conducted by Claremont McKenna College shows that 46% of our students are girls and 100% of them said they had fun and would keep making.

We have numbers that push us to give in our best and make sure that we break our own records. We are happy to be growing and helping more day by day.

Our instruction teaches the basics of product design. We detail the process it takes to turn an idea into a physical product.

We cover the key concepts of mechanical engineering and digital design as they are applied to 3D modeling.

Our students learn to use CAD software like TinkerCAD, Fusion360. Shapr, Solidworks, Blender and OnShape.

Learn how to assemble a 3D printer, tips for maintenance, and the right types of filaments and resins to choose for fabrication.

4worldlovers:
Sitting on a former Pacific Electric Red Car line 2 blocks from the birthplace of the electric guitar lies Orange County’s happy hacker home where rainbows and unicorns are frequently shot down by mech-mounted Tesla coils and flamethrower-wielding drones.

All communication lines have been severed and only the frequent rush of the nearby freight trains provide any clue to the nature of the world outside.
