About

Fabricate: To make or build a physical object
Fabrication: The act or process of fabricating

Fabrication is happening at the University of Rochester every day. In research, independent studies, curriculum, and extracurricular activities, getting something made is a staple experience for many UofR students. It's difficult to realize in time just how many resources are available on campus, let alone to grasp the wide scope of fabrication knowledge on the Internet. While this website can never be all-encompassing, you can learn enough student-relevant knowledge here to get yourself started quickly and get useful ideas for your project. 

The UR Guide to Fabrication started as a Kauffman Entrepreneurial Year program project to collect the essential knowledge behind effective and efficient use of UofR fabrication facilities and make it simply accessible to everyone. Today, this website updates and expands through the contributions of community members and the curation work of passionate volunteer administrators. We hope you find what you're looking for, and invite you to share what you know and make our community ever better.

Sincerely,

The UR Guide to Fabrication Team
