The Schantz MakerSpace was created for people who share the joy of making things, have a desire to learn or improve their skills, and wish to see the knowledge of craftsmanship survive into the future.
Classes Employees at Schantz Organ Company believe sound craftsmanship is more than just a company goal. It is a passion and a desire to create what few people can even imagine, in an environment that has encouraged this approach for over 145 years.
To keep that passion for skill and craftsmanship alive, the Schantz factory opened its doors to creative, like-minded people who now help us to encourage and teach the makers of tomorrow. Our community is filled with enthusiastic makers who want to bring their creative ideas to life, but lack the necessary tools or experience. We strive to provide educational opportunities and experiences for people who like to build, invent, tinker, and/or learn new skills.
Join us on Monday, September 16th from 7:00-9:00pm for a road trip to the Wayne County Schools Career Center's RAMTEC Facility! Drew Fuller (Robotics & Automation Instructor) will give us a short tour of the facility where you will see the large scale manufacturing equipment students are learning with at RAMTEC.
Read MoreSchantz MakerSpace has helped over 150 students build 3-D Printers. However, not all students have been able to attend the CURA Software training sessions or students are in need of a refresher course on understanding CURA. We've heard your feedback and are happy to announce a FREE session on CURA software training for Wednesday, September 18th from 7:00-9:00pm at Schantz MakerSpace. Rolf Nelson will walk students through the process and be available to answer your questions. If you've ever built a machine in one of our classes, don't miss this opportunity to sharpen your skills!

At Schantz MakerSpace, we designed a class where students could buy CNC Router kits and, over the course of four weekend class sessions, our instructors helped them through the process of building their machines.
Learn About Our CNC Build Classes Our students have built over 100 3-D Printers and we are now rolling the program into the schools. We have completed workshops at Wooster and Northwestern schools and plan to bring the program to others in the near future.
Learn About Our 3D Printer Build Classes An Arduino is like a little computer chip that controls things like electric sensors, lights and motors. It is the ultimate tinkering tool for a maker. Most people aren’t trained in its programming capabilities to make full use out of it.
