The complete presentation of membership including the ability to set it up can be found on the main Ace Makerspace website: https://www.acemonstertoys.org/membership/

Shared tools

All tools in the space and many general supplies are available to all members. There are some pieces of equipment that require formal education prior to use (example: Laser cutter). Before using any piece of equipment look it up on this wiki and read up about it.

Access to classes

We offer a lot of super low cost labs and classes. Members get first dibs. See the Ace Makerspace Calendar for dates and time. Also if you are so inclined to teach you can do that.

Unlimited guest privileges

AMT Members have unlimited guest privileges. Members are responsible for their guests in all ways. Here are the parameters:

• AMT Members must be in the space with their guests at all times. No giving keys and codes to non-members. Ever.
• All guest must sign a release of liability form before touching tools
• AMT Members are responsible for ensuring all guests adhere to the membership agreements, social contracts, rules and safety measures in the space.
• AMT Members are responsible for any damage or messes their guests are involved with or create.

Community and culture

We are a pretty social group who enjoy co-working and sharing knowledge. Membership gets you tapped into that via events, email discussion boards and direct communication. As an all volunteer organization, Ace depends on its members to determine the direction of the org with input, action and effort. We have a sustainable inclusive culture of transparency and respect.

Provisional vs Full Membership

When you first sign up to be a member at Ace you are considered to be a provisional member. Provisional members can become Full Members after a couple of months of membership by request. Full members become part owners of the Ace Monster Toys non-profit corporation, and are thereby able to participate in governance, by voting for the board and for bringing other provisional members into full membership. There is no other difference between full and provisional members. We encourage everyone to become a full member so as to become more involved in the governance and management of ACE, but it is not required.
