User Rating: 4.8 out of 5
Address: 450 Front St, Staten Island, NY 10304
Metal working at its coolest is at the plasma cutting class offered by Staten Island MakerSpace. Plasma is electricity induced state of super hot gases, that can carve up metal exactly like a hot knife through butter. When it comes to cutting up metal, plasma cutting is the most advanced technology out there. Of course, owning a plasma cutter privately is not really practical, but the skills you acquire from this class can easily be used professionally. This class is perhaps the coolest in our list of metal working classes in NYC, due to its novelty and high-tech factor. Most modern metalworking workshops utilize plasma cutters to shape raw blocks of metal into beautiful objects, and this can be a highly marketable skill, which is why this class is on our list of metal working classes in NYC.
