An Austin nonprofit with keycard access and a base membership near $95 a month, or about $950 for a year. That covers six shop areas: woodshop, metal shop, lasers, 3D printing, textiles and electronics, with ceramics on a higher tier. Textiles is where leather sewing and pattern work happen, and every tool group has its own orientation class before the badge is issued.
A reasonable middle option for Austin hobbyists: cheaper than most coworking style shops, with long access hours once training is done. Leather specific hand tools are limited, so most people bring their own punches, awls and stamps and use the space for machines, cutting tables and heavy work. Orientation classes are paid separately and take time, so the first month is rarely productive.
