We are undergoing some much needed updates! Some things might be outdated. Thanks for sticking with us!

Located in San Leandro and open all days of the week, our maker space/workshop includes tools to allow you to cut, polish, facet and more to rocks of all shapes and sizes. Here are our workshop hours, and map. Below are the tools avaliable in the workshop to our members. Workshop access (outside of classes) requires a membership and completion of the Beginner's Cabbing Class.

Our workshop is run by volunteers. Check our calendar, newsletter, or socials for open hours. They change week to week.

Schedule Updated May 22nd 2026

Before showing up to a class at our workshop, please make sure our classes coordinator has space for you, and that you've completed your beginner's cabbing class.

If you're a new member who hasn't taken the beginner's cabbing class, we will reach out to you once there is room.

There is currently about a month-long waiting list for all classes. (Looking for knowlegable volunteers to help us out to reduce our waitlist!)

If you're knowledgeable in lapidary or want to help run the workshop or a class, please reach out to us at info@ebml.club! We'd love to have you!
