ME218 Shop Support Page

This page contains information about the Stanford Student Shops, or the Product Realization Labs. Students in ME218 are not required to use the shop. We would like to emphasize that all projects can be completed, with excellent results, with no use of the student shops. However, if you should choose to use the shop, we would like to help support your efforts.

Product Realization Labs

The shop is located in building 610, at the corner of Santa Teresa and Duena. If you wish to use the shop, you MUST obtain a shop license. These can be purchased at the shop during open shop hours . You cannot purchase a license until you have completed safety training. Once you have a license you can visit the PEARL machine sign-up page to reserve machine time.
