Fab Lab Masterton

Lab closing early due to illness.

There will be a slight delay before opening today. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We've been lucky enough to help out the Fireballs Aotearoa team with their successful retrieval of fragments of the recent Masterton Meteorite. Vik and Tamara have a microscopy lab at their house (we can't fit everything in Dixon Street!) and it was the nearest place for initial handling, preparation, and examining the samples. This is the most recent find from today, with a magnified image of the broken surface.

Open Lab today from 1-4pm

Vik & Tamara at Fab Lab Masterton are on tap if you need a hand with your 3D printer, Arduino thingy or chemistry stuff. (Tamara teaches molecular gastronomy workshops fyi).

Of course this equipment and expertise is available to you for tinkering FREE during Open Lab on Fridays 1-5pm, next to Aratoi/Entice.

Yes indeedy, we are open this Friday 22nd May. If you have laptops that can no longer run updated Windows, we are refurbishing them with Xubuntu. This lets them still be used for Office, browsing, and all the things we do in the Fab Lab - either for yourself or perhaps donated to the needy in the community.

Xubuntu Xubuntu delivers a smooth and unified user experience with an elegant look from the boot to the shutdown with all aspects integrated to one.

Fab Lab will be closed on Good Friday
