Workshops

From London Hackspace Wiki

We try and hold at least one talk at our monthly hack evenings, and we also want to start running more involved workshops at our space. If you want to give one of these, or you've got a suggestion, this is the place to let us know.

Regular Hackspace workshops

Workshop When
Hackspace safety induction Usually available on Tuesdays - request in advance
Laser cutter induction Usually available on Tuesdays - request in advance
Any chance of doing these daytime sometime? I have a young family so evenings aren't good for me. Thanks.
