Hackerspace Nijmegen is participating in NL-DOET today (March, 14th, 2026).

We are going to build cupboards that can hold component boxes (for all our electronical components).

If you like to help out building them, or help out with the renovation tasks (we just moved to a new space). Join us at Winkelsteegseweg 209, Nijmegeen.

Or just come to hang out with us, and see the new space!

Since mid-December, we have been working on a new location in Park Winkelsteeg. The renovations there are starting to take shape and it is beginning to look more and more like a functional space. But it is still a work in progress.

Because there are still 1001 jobs to be done, and because the old space is becoming increasingly uninviting and more like a storage facility, we will be at the new location during regular opening hours (Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 8:00 p.m. to midnight).

The new location is at:
winkelsteegseweg 209, Nijmegen.https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/13592465402#map=19/51.815084/5.815800
You can cycle right up to the door. If you are coming by car, navigate to Vossendijk and park in the car park (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1325500031# map=18/51.816176/5.813876), or navigate to the corner of Hulzenseweg/Winkelsteegseweg and park in the parking lot there (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/825863097# map=19/51.815153/5.819251).

I wanted to flip pages using a footswitch. Now Bluetooth foot switches are cheap, but I already *had* a footswitch, so that seemed silly.

After some brainstorming at @hack42, some rummaging through parts boxes, and some light coding, the prototype works! Just needs a nicer form factor.

We just got our fax machines networked and functional, using #AsteriskPBX on #NixOS at long last! Won't be long now before one of these is living in @DoESLiverpool
