Overview

Noisebridge is, amongst other things, a provider of infrastructure for technical and creative projects, and a community of like-minded individuals. TechShop is also something along these lines, with stronger focus on providing professional grade tools, such as laser cutters, CNC mills and Shopbots. Members of Noisebridge and Techshop frequently have overlapping interests and requirements.

In order to help members of both organizations locate resources at either place, we've started to put together this resource listing. We encourage people to get off their butts and do cool projects, and use this list to expedite the process of doing so, by finding the tools you need, at the location that is most convenient for you.

Please help populate this list to the best of your knowledge, that will make it more useful.

Apparently, Noisebridge members can get a 1/2 price membership to TechShop. And the other way around. Awesome!
