The Yang Aero Maker Space is a special machine shop open to all students, faculty, and staff of ANY major at Georgia Tech. In 2018, the AE School’s Aero Maker Space was renamed the Yang Aero Maker Space in honor of the previous School Chair, Dr. Vigor Yang, who supported and funded the creation of the space. The space is run by trained students, Aero Maker Space Mentors. They supervise the safe and proper use of all equipment and train others.
What do we do?
Our tools are 100% free to use, and no prior manufacturing experience or training is necessary. The Aero Maker Space has a variety of 3d printers, laser cutters, and wood tools located in the Weber SST building. The composites manufacturing and metal tools are located in the basement of the Engineering Science and Mechanics building.
