> It boggles my mind that there's a sizable subset of the electorate who believe voting should only take place on one single day and that's what's best for democracy.

I'm pretty sure they know it's disenfranchising to people voting the opposite way they are, and that's why they want to limit it. I don't believe they think it's truly best for democracy.

They 100% enforce the exclusion clause, sadly.

Ah ok! I'm asking if there's any kind of age limit, will let you know when I hear back!

Right now we're still not holding many special events due to the pandemic. But we have weekly woodshop, laser, sewing, and CNC classes. Plus welding, metal shop, metal milling CNC, wood lathe, and 3D printing classes by appointment. We've also got a number of other tools available ranging from vinyl cutters to an embroidery machine which are more "teach yourself" kind of things.

The best way to get a feel for the space is to come by for a tour! You can sign up at https://www.rvabuild.com/tour (and if you DM me when you're coming by, I can try to be there to say hello!)
