The FabLab gives students hands‑on experience in engineering, fabrication, design, and real‑world problem‑solving. To keep the space well‑equipped, safe, and innovative, we gladly accept donations of materials, tools, equipment, and consumables.
Your support helps students learn, create, and explore authentic engineering skills every day.
We regularly use the following materials for student projects and prototypes:
Wood: plywood (⅛"–½"), MDF, dimensional lumber
Acrylic: 1.5mm–6mm sheets (laser‑safe only)
Cardboard: clean, unused, or gently used
Hardware: screws, bolts, nuts, washers, hinges
3D Printing Filament: PLA (1.75mm), PETG (optional), unused spools
Vinyl: adhesive‑backed sheets or rolls
Foamboard, posterboard, cardstock
Fasteners: Screws, Nuts, Bolts, Nails (All shapes and sizes welcome!)
We also accept new or gently used:
Hand tools (pliers, screwdrivers, clamps, mallets, wrenches)
Measuring tools (tape measures, rulers, calipers, squares)
Small power tools (drills, Dremels, heat guns, soldering tools)
Organizational items (bins, containers, shelving)
Nitrile gloves
Sandpaper
Paint pens/markers
Shop wipes
Wood glue, hot glue sticks
Donations may be dropped off at the front office or delivered directly to the FabLab during school hours.
Please contact Mr. Lockwood prior to dropoff
For larger items, equipment, or bulk materials, please email in advance so we can arrange storage and approval.
We maintain an Amazon wishlist full of products to support the FabLab. If you wish to purchase an item directly from the wishlist for donation to our program, the link can be found here:
Every donation helps students explore creativity, engineering, and problem‑solving in ways that prepare them for the future.
Your generosity directly impacts the quality of hands‑on learning our FabLab provides.
