fab lab - community workshop w/standard set of tools - generally considered fairly expensive
hacker space - community workshop of sorts... started in 80's in germany, share - rather than illegally - taking something that exists and change into something else - generally people who are 18 or over - sharing finances, et al
maker space - general - for making - more of a mission driven space that is community based.. starting to include all these spaces - it's the big circle drawn around everything - even make magazine would agree that maker space is cool

it's got to be a self-sustaining community - of money and people and... -
said charging for workshops keeps people valuing them

more ideal model - not need to ask funding
find people
