The Bench Manual
Technical schematics, firmware templates, and real-time lab schedules. Forge & Wire provides everything you need to transition from digital blueprints to physical, bench-ready hardware prototypes with tactile feedback.
Core Lab Assets
Active Workshop Schedules
Detroit and Berlin labs are fully equipped with dedicated soldering stations, 3D printers, and precision CNC machinery. Check real-time bench occupancy and reserve your physical workbench before heading into the lab.
Open-Source Firmware & Schematics
Access our curated repository of verified component datasheets, custom PCB templates, and bare-metal C++ firmware drivers. Every schematic is verified by our resident engineers to ensure hardware safety.
Book a Bench Review
Resident Engineers
Schedule a 1-on-1 session with a resident designer to review your physical prototypes, debug firmware, or optimize your enclosure designs for CNC milling and high-precision physical assembly.
Get direct technical feedback on your schematics and layout designs. Our instructors spend their mornings in active commercial labs and their afternoons helping you debug physical prototypes at the bench.
