Overview
Mission
Provide a community industrial workshop for the education and practice of the industrial arts in woodworking, metalworking, electronics, and other fabrication technologies.

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Membership-supported. 79% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
