What's happening at the Fab Lab this week? Well, we have Sublimation and Ceramics still open for the public and for members! Visit the "Adult Classes" tab on our website to sign up!

Basic Sublimation:
Sublimation is a special ink that turns from solid to gas when heated (sublimates, for science nerds) and then likes to attach to a substrate (a solid surface). In this case, the ink attaches to polyester, and transfers the image onto the material, whether it is a coffee cup, a plate, or a piece of cloth! Learn this cool technique and open up possibilities for personal gifts, and custom coolness!

Basic Ceramics:
Have you always wanted to try making a vase, bowl, or mug of your own? This basics ceramics class may be just what you need! In this class you will learn several different techniques for how to work with clay on the wheel and off of it. You will learn by first observing the instructor on technique, and then working with your own chunk of clay to get it wedged, formed, centered, and thrown.

Basic Woodshop:
In this beginner woodshop class, we will be creating one of the most important tools you can have in a wood shop: A push stick. Push sticks keep your hands and fingers away from the spinny sharp things so you keep all your bits where they should be. In order to make the push stick, we will use every major tool in a wood shop. The table saw, the chop saw, the drill press, the band saw, various sanding machines, a table router, and a hand router. We will teach you the safe way to handle and prepare all the tools, and you will use them to create your own safety tool!
