Fabrication Equipment
To ensure the safety, well-being, and comfort of all residence, University Housing Services prohibits the possession and use of certain fabrication tools and
industrial-grade equipment in all residential facilities. These devices present fire, electrical, noise, and chemical hazards that are incompatible with the residential
environment as they may emit heat, fumes, or noise that pose risks to personal safety and facility infrastructure. Additionally, they often require ventilation, firesafe environments, or electrical loads beyond the residential facilities capacity.
Unauthorized possession or operation of prohibited items may result in their immediate confiscation, conduct referral, or housing-related sanctions, including
possible removal from the residence halls.
Prohibited Items Include (but are not limited to):
• 3D Printers (FDM, resin, SLA, etc.)
• CNC Routers or Milling Machines
• Vinyl Cutters or Plotters
• Laser Cutters or Engravers
• High-powered soldering stations
• Other fabrication or prototyping machinery
Alternative Resource:
Students interested in 3D printing, vinyl cutting, laser engraving, or other maker activities are encouraged to use the Stinger Studio Makerspace, located in the
University Library. This supervised space offers safe access to creative tools, project support, and a collaborative environment. Please visit the Stinger Studio
Makerspace website for hours, equipment, and project guidelines.
