About

Metal Fab's Tidy-Friday is when we clean the shops and do maintenance on equipment. If you’d like to participate, we’d like your help! It's a great way to get involved with Metal Fabrication and enjoy some social time.

We plan to hold these social clean-up events from 10 AM to noon every second and fourth Friday. We gather to clean the shops, perform equipment maintenance, enjoy each other's company, and share a bite.  

As Metal Fab Studio volunteer David Hays puts it: "BARN is not only a place we go to make this or fix that. BARN is a social place, a gathering place, our third place, that’s not home or work. Having a cup of coffee, a bite of pastry, or a slice of pizza will give us cause to pause, grin with friends, share stories, and laugh a bit."
