Ok peeps, hit me up with hot glue gun recommendations.

If it can run cordless, that's a bonus.

Been a busy little while at the 'space of late.

Saturday 7th June (yes, a few hours from now...) is our next open day. 10-4pm

We'll be around to show the space and answer questions about joining. We've also got a wildebeest puppet to show off!

@CatRyan made me a quilted zipper slip case for my #PocketReform using #emfcamp fabric with a complimentary orange liner.
Today we gave our tuck shop a little spruce up. We've added a worktop, lifted the coffee making area and moved some of the fridges around the different rooms to better fit how we're using the space.

Merry Christmas to all you makers!

We hope you're having a lovely time and all your makes have found loving homes.

We'll see you all in the new year! We're reopening on Monday 6th January 2025!

@leigh_hackspace has made this fundraising piece for Leigh Spinner's Mill (https://www.spinnersmill.co.uk/). A central acrylic elevator raises up a shaft behind perspex on a continuous nylon belt, stopping at fundraising goals on the way.

The windows to the left and right will be used for high value donor plaques.

Cut from 18mm MDF and acrylic on our Shapeoko XXL CNC, painted, with some vinyl detail.

Tiny knife.

Made this for a @leigh_hackspace member, that I'll leave ... anonymous (he seemed quite happy with it).

Printed with 3DQF PLA on a Prusa Mini with .6mm nozzle, .3mm layer height. 2 inlay layers printed first, then cut out and badge layers printed in second colour with z hop height set to 1mm to not collide.

Plastic pin back superglued to rear.
