Classes and Collaboration lead to Happy Makers – Part 2

This a follow up post to this one. I’ll list a few more ongoing classes and collaborative build efforts at our space.

Ceramics 101

This class is required before working in the ceramics and pottery area. It teaches you the general rules of housekeeping and basics of materials used in this process. Class details here.

Polymer Clay Basics

This class is designed to give you an overview of the Polymer Clay process. This medium can be used to make a wide variety of small accessories and jewelry pieces.

Woodturning

Felisha has been introducing the addicting process of wood turning to many makers. The beginner class covers tools, sharpening, turning spindles, basic work holding strategies, and finishing. By the end of the class each person will have completed a bottle stopper!  Students actually learn on Felisha’s professional machine at Our Daily Salt. Class details here.

Trash to Cash

Tom had an ingenious scam idea to clean the makerspace. He shows you how to take a pile of junk and determine what has value and how to take it to the scrap yard and get cash for it! The money made from recycling is used to improve the space.
