Season's Greetings!

A client is interested in a Maker-type space in their new building, but is wondering if it is possible for this type of space to be unstaffed (at least at times.)

It seems counterintuitive to me to have a space with tools and materials that is not staffed, but perhaps folks on the list might be able to provide some successful examples of (or techniques for) unstaffed Maker-type spaces?

Conversely, feel free to chime in if you think unstaffed Maker spaces are a loopy idea.
