I joined MadeStl recently and was super excited to get in there and start working in the metal shop and 3d printing spaces only to realize too late that theyre closed on Sundays. I have a full time job and my availability is limited to weekends so paying $125/month for 4 days of access with no guarantees of being able to reserv the machines i want is just crazy to me.
