Facilities

 

 The Mines Campus Machine Shop is a 4,300 square-foot manufacturing facility housed on the first floor of the GRL Annex building.  We are a CNC machine shop, also equipped with a wide variety of manual machinery and hand tools.  We regularly machine aluminum, steel, stainless steel, and plastics.  We also work with high-performance alloys (ask us about your application).  Our space includes a large area for assembling very large (think 20-foot trailer) pieces of equipment.  We do limited onsite testing for acceptance purposes, but taking data happens in your own spaces.

How do I get there?

The Campus Machine Shop is located on the north end of the first floor in the GRL Annex.  (Please note:  this building is not the GRL!)

To get there:  walk west (towards the mountains) on Maple Street, between the GRL and the McNeil Parking Garage.

There is a pedestrian path around the left side of the Labriola Building constructions site.  Follow the signs around to the west side of the Labriola building.  You will see the GRL Annex on the left side of the road.

Enter the main doors and walk down the hall to the other end of the building.  The Shop doors are normally locked during the day.  So, you may need to press the doorbell to be admitted.
