Anyone know of a DIY workshop/machine shop in NYC? (Ideally something like a Techshop).

I’m graduating from university, and moving to New York. I’m basically looking for something to replace my university’s machine shop for my hobby projects. It doesn’t have to be fancy, just basic stuff like a milling machine, lathe, band saw, sander, etc. Extra points for fancy stuff like a laser cutter, 3D printer, CNC.

Alternatively I could make do with partial solutions, like empty workshop-like space for rent (on an hourly basis), and/or something like a tool library(obviously for hand tools, not milling machines).

I’d like to keep tinkering, without buying machines/tools and working in my apartment.
