Orientations, bench rental and machine time as separate things to book, because they are not the same hour and not the same price.
Online booking
Offer induction, bench and machine sessions around real workshop availability. A reserved workbench leaves the makerspace page immediately.
Learn moreOne live timetable
Put project blocks, laser time and machine closures on one workshop calendar, with the correct bench or machine on every entry.
Learn moreA taught session with a tutor and eight places, a space by the hour, and one machine everybody wants. Three products, three prices, one workshop.
A taught session holds what the tutor can supervise. When the places are gone the session comes off the page rather than quietly overfilling.
Everybody wants the one machine. Booking it by the hour as its own thing is what stops the queue forming around a bench nobody needed.
Each bench is bookable in its own right, so closing one for a repair leaves the rest of the workshop online instead of shutting Saturday.
Built for your workshop
Customers reserve genuine makerspace bench inventory, and the selected workbench disappears as soon as the booking is complete.
Hold the same makerspace bench weekly or monthly on Free, stopping on a date or after the final session.
Keep the full booking and orientation time window together while unrelated inventory stays available.
Reserve the resource and dust collection requirements together so staff have one current record.
Keep the organizer and project booking details on the booking for a clear handoff.
Create an itemized estimate for the bench days, the machine hours and the materials.
Switch a member to a different bench. What they paid and the sessions before it stay put.
Block the precise period needed for machine closure, leaving every ready resource bookable.
When you teach the induction rather than hire the bench out, the number of places is the number of stools, and the page stops selling at it.
A member picks the machine, the hours and pays. It lands in the diary while the supervisor is still cutting something.
See shop orientations, laser cutter time and machine closure together, with the actual resource attached to every entry.
Keep payment status with the bench session, including offline money recorded on Free and complete online card checkout on Pro.
Pro collects the complete bench hire fee online for the bench session. Record cash or bank transfer on Free.
Record cash or bank transfer manually on Free, keeping the bench hire fee visible beside the bench session.
Send an itemised estimate for the project booking and agreed extras, then keep later payments with the accepted details.
One app for every booking
The laser cutter is one machine. A booked hour leaves the page at once, so two members are never sent to the same bed at the same time.
Email the maker their bench, arrival time and dust-extraction notes ahead of materials are carried into the workshop.
Add your whole team and get booking for nothing.
