Do you want to come and try-out our makerspace in Darling Square Library? Join this regular 3-hour session to get hands-on experience with 3D printers, laser cutters, electronic kits and hand tools including soldering irons.
Bring a simple idea or project you’d like to explore, or we’ll set you up with a starter project kit. You could learn how to use an Arduino, build simple circuits or create your own water sensor. These small-scale starter kits come with easy to follow how-to guides.
For each session, 2 experienced facilitators will be on hand to show you the ropes and discuss your ideas. There will be an emphasis on peer-to-peer learning and learning from publicly available resources within the class.
If you have a project idea you’d like to explore we encourage you to email us at makerspace@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au before your session so we can best support you.
