3D Printing Workshops this Week

Interested in learning how to 3D print?! We are excited to announce two workshops coming up:

Intro to 3D printing : March 8 from 6 - 9pm
Intro to 3D printing and Advanced 3D printing : March 10 from 9 am - 4 pm  

In a society plagued by over-consumption, the Advanced 3D Printing workshop will teach the basics of leveraging advancements in technology to repair everyday objects and keep them out of landfills.

 
Maker Day + Maker Night
 
Keen to DIY, but don't have the space or tools?

Borrow the tools you need on site without having to drag them home. And best of all, benefit from the expertise and tips of Tool Ninjas

 who will be there to help you out.

Maker Day: March 11th   
11am - 5pm


LAST Maker Night for 2018:
March 12th,  6 - 9pm
Book a workbench

Community Night: March 26th

Now that we're wrapping up winter, your boots and coats will need some care before you can safely put them away until next year. Getting the salt out and conditioning your leather items is a great way to keep them going for many years, and reducing the number of items you have to buy over a lifetime.

Join us for this demo night with long-time professional leather worker Beth, the founder of
Ottawa Leather Works, as she shows you how to bring those salty boots back to life!
 

I'll be there!
