For the first time in 2026, it’s time for our semi-regular last-Sunday-of-the-month afternoon session! We’re meeting from 14:00 til 16:00 on Sunday 25th at the Remakery/Welshmill hub.
Feel free to bring any projects you’re working on, use the tools, discuss any interesting tech you’ve been looking into, ask questions, or just catch up.
The 3D printer is ready for action, as is the laser cutter, and also the CNC machine (but that needs a training session and a bit of supervision to use.)
For everyone: a quick note about techshed finances. The hire of the Remakery costs £24 each session. Historically we asked for £3 per session, and £5 annual membership, but recently we’ve been very lax about asking. Even at £3, with current attendances, we don’t break even.
So, any thoughts on that would be welcome. Any contributions for membership and attendance last year would also be welcome.
there’s a big bamboo sphere in the remakery, explained in this facebook post
six attendees, all agree that continuing with a 2 hour monthly session is good, and £5 per session should more or less work out. Collected £10 from each player, for the present and previous session
mention of projects aquatic and fluidic, electrical and artistic, and of course several of us don’t have active projects, only stalled projects
discussion about the Bath share and repair library of things, where there’s a good timetabled approach to volunteering, and a program for trainee repair person
discussion of different kinds of projects - techshed-wide community projects, small-scale collaborations, funded assistance on projects, solo projects where what we share is the interest and enthusiasm
ideas welcome for things to do or to discuss at future meetups
