Your lab questions, answered.

NWATT Lab is a collaborative engineering makerspace in Coventry, operated by NWATT LTD. It brings together electronics workbenches, prototyping, creative equipment, project deployment and a growing mentor network for people developing their own projects.

Find us at Office F1, Enterprise House, Foleshill Enterprise Park, Courtaulds Way, Coventry CV6 5NX. Arrange your visit with the team before travelling.

We are registering interest ahead of opening. Visits are by confirmed appointment; regular opening hours and member sessions have not yet been announced. Request a visit and wait for confirmation before travelling.

Yes. Tell us what you want to make and your current experience. We will discuss a suitable starting point, relevant guidance and any induction needed before using equipment.

No. Interest is welcome from individual makers, students, creators and startup teams. Initial membership is proposed for adults aged 18 and over; final eligibility and access terms will be confirmed before sessions begin.

The proposed founding membership is £49 per month for the first 20 places. This is an indicative offer: final pricing, included hours, introductory period and terms are still being developed. Other proposed options are listed on the membership page.

No. Registering interest is free and creates no payment commitment. It lets you tell us about your project and the access you would find useful.

Membership inclusions are not yet final. Equipment availability, materials, print jobs and mentor support are discussed separately, with any charges confirmed before you agree to proceed.

You can enquire about shared low-voltage electronics workbenches for circuit assembly, sensors and embedded development. Share your measurements, interfaces and tools needed so we can confirm the instruments and session arrangements.

The collection includes a Bambu Lab H2S, an ELEGOO 16K resin printer and a Creality Ender-3, plus a Bambu AMS accessory. The exact resin model, Ender-3 variant, AMS pairing and materials are confirmed for your project. Resin processing is staff-managed.

Yes, enclosure prototypes are a relevant project to discuss. Bring a CAD model or dimensioned sketch, board dimensions and connector positions. We will review material, print orientation, fit and any finishing requirements before agreeing the job.

Enquire about an arranged session using Sony A7 IV or A7 III cameras, the FE 24–70mm F2.8 GM II lens, additional lenses and lighting. Share your shot list so space, sound conditions and equipment can be confirmed. A soundproof studio and off-site camera hire are not established offers.

The collection includes a Cricut Maker cutter, UV printer, garment printing capability and heat press. Cut-vinyl lettering, labels, suitable hard-surface graphics and garment transfers are possible workflows. Full-colour printed stickers require a separate printing step; artwork and material compatibility are checked per job.

You can enquire about a managed prototype deployment on the in-house server. Share dependencies, compute and networking needs, and the data you intend to use. Allocation, access, isolation and backup arrangements are agreed individually.

No. This is staff-controlled specialist equipment, outside self-service member access. Specialist requirements need a separate review; live high-voltage experiments are excluded from shared member bench sessions. The stated ratings do not imply simultaneous maximum output.

Bring a short project description, the result you want, relevant drawings or files, dimensions, materials and your timescale. Mention power requirements and any special handling needs. We will confirm availability and the access arrangements before a session.

Our growing network spans hardware, firmware, application development, frontend and backend, systems, electrical and creative disciplines. Tell us where you are stuck so we can discuss relevant expertise and confirm availability, scope and any charges.

Send your project goal, the specific question and what you have already tried. Include the relevant discipline and preferred format. The team will discuss whether an appropriate mentor is available before arranging support.

Individual profiles and portfolios are coming soon as the network grows. The mentor page currently explains the disciplines and topics you can enquire about; contact us to discuss the expertise your project needs.

Yes, we welcome enquiries from people who want to share relevant experience. Tell us your discipline, practical background, portfolio and the kinds of projects you would like to support.
