We now have a ko-fi, so if you can't use the space but would still like to support us in some way you can now donate through the link below. It can also be found in the new linktree in our profile above.

Now that we have a metal lathe and mill, we can make parts for the lathe and mill. This week one of our metalworking leads had been pushing the machine's limits with stainless steel, making a replacement plunger for the lathe tool post

Thanks to all of our volunteers for our tidy-up weekend! Day 2 was just as productive as day 1, though we didn't get as many photos.

Day one of our tidy-up weekend has seen great inroads into organising and clearing the space. Lots more to do, but a great job done by our volunteers today!

Last night one of our members ran part 1 of a green wood spoon carving workshop. We learnt proper knife technique and started carving our spoons to rough shape. Next week, we'll continue with carving out the bowl part. A great time making shavings, and not a single injury 🙌
