# FAQs
## Who can use the space?
We want to service as many people as we can. This means we allow students of any Major/Minor to use the space as well as Cedar City Community members. However, keep in mind our primary objectives mean our students have first priority on machines and assistance.
## Do I have to pay?
We handle machine upkeep and maintenance though users are generally expected to provide their own materials or purchase from us in the case of [[! - 3D Printing|3d printers]] or [[! - CO2 Laser Cutters|laser cutters]].
