Makerspaces seem fun! Unfortunately, there isn't something like that where I live (Iran). Wish you the best in building your factory!

I don't know whether this'd be possible for you and your situation, but have you considered trying to start one?

Try to find other people who might be interested, and get some of the basic equipment a makerspace would have... and then work on some projects with the other people. If you can't afford the some equipment, perhaps ask some local businesses etc to sponsor the makerspace.

There's info out there on how to set one up https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+setup+a+makerspace

Creality has open-sourced at least some of its 3D printer designs.

Maybe worth a look to see if the parts are available where you are?

Even if not, you'd probably learn a lot just by trying to hack one together from the parts that ARE available.
