Our Space
The Capitol Hill Tool Library has about 640 sq ft of workshop space and 800 sq feet of tool storage, right in the heart of Capitol Hill. Find us down Crawford Place alley and look for the sandwich boards on both sides. The Tool Library has a garage-style window.
Everyone is welcome walking in! Say hi to any of our volunteers, and they help you find, use, and borrow tools.
You can use any of the inventory tools in the shop space, which has a workbench and tables, wifi and restrooms. The workshop also has tools including a table saw, drill presses, a compound saw, and 3D printers.
The inventory storage space is through the workshop in the back corner of the parking garage. Tools are organized by letter-area and shelf-number, going up from 0 on the floor to 5 on the highest shelf. Online inventory searches include each tool’s letter and shelf number.
