member s scott s https www artemisspaceshipbridge com leave a comment more we have a tree house by luckystar on aug 12 2026 under uncategorized sometimes it s nice to take a break that s why every hackerspace needs a tree house on top of our new electronics workbench to be featured at a later date sits a loft adorned with artificial turf we can now touch grass without going outside into the noxious mid summer air the loft features a plush couch a crt television for all your retro gaming needs and a bookshelf housing fiction and non fiction alike matt machado who is also our newly appointed president directed the project he explained that structure of the new electronics workbench and tree house consists of two industrial shelving units like you would find in costco and steel beams laid out horizontally it is a really cool perspective to look down into the space either back towards the kitchen or towards the main area said machado he even said that he fell asleep on the couch the first time he used the new space our first treehouse was built during the early days of hacklab 2 0 on queen street it provided a high vantage point over the classroom and were the best seats in the house during presentations we had discussed reviving the tree house for a while but with the limitations of our current space we deferred luckily our newly assembled electronics bench area presented the perfect opportunity to build up and reclaim space for relaxation i spent some time up there hidden away with a full vantage point of the lab as other members worked away on their projects i lounged in the new space writing this very blog post sometimes it s nice to be above the chaos even if it s good chaos comments off on we have a tree house more hacklab to summerfest by

2025 under blog running a hacker space uncategorized a train sorts through boxes of circuit boards and presents one to the camera luciano cesta every few months the lab welcomes people from across the city and beyond to drop off their old electronics and snap up other items people brought after we take the remainder of the inevitable pile of old electronics to be recycled or otherwise disposed of safely on this jid the entire surface of the 20 x5 table in the middle of the lab was covered many times over with circuit boards laptops tvs monitors mice keyboards tablets phones and the like the air was full of excitement and curiosity as guests and members combed over the veritable mountain of junk one hacker s trash is another hacker s treasure as they say who i don t know but they were probably pretty smart it gives people an outlet to repurpose and find new things to inspire new projects and ideas said hacklab member andrew green and it s great for the environment because we are able to repurpose recycle or give away a lot of perfectly working electronics and tech assessing the full scope of the problem with e waste is difficult but united nations estimates that 62 million tonnes of e waste was generated in 2022 alone which is 82 more than in 2010 perfectly good equipment is thrown away economically important materials are lost to the landfill and the environment and human health are endangered by lead mercury and other harmful substances this time around andrew got his hands on a ti nspire graphic calculator that he later hacked to run his own applications he also got a pinephone that he installed kali linux on to use for security research member scott sullivan recalls a time when he acquired 5 cd stereo system that he used for six years and then took to another jid where someone else scored it a train another member found some theatre props and an arrow squeezedriver a neat little as seen on tv item that drives a screwdriver bit with a squeeze of the hand take a look at the video below if you want to see a hilarious infomercial member loial scored two old 3d printers that he wants to either get working or use to build a new 3d printer he agrees that the event is great for the environment but says that it is a social event as much as it s an ecologically responsible one that seemed to be the sentiment that a lot of members and guests had people were socializing exchanging ideas laughs and stories about what they brought into the event as usual the event was buzzing with activity an equal number of people were socializing and scouring the tables a box of tablets and computer speakers ready to be taken for recycling luciano cesta junk independence day is a way that hacklab engages with the local community everyone is welcome and the door is wide open during the event many people have electronics that sit around for years in drawers and garages never being used there are also many people who could use those items the event has connected those people for at least the past 13 years 1 comment community ewaste junk independence day sustainability more junk independence day october 26 by luckystar on oct 21 2025 under events

going on blog 5 by luckystar on jul 20 2025 under projects spot welding is very useful in makerspaces whether you want to join pieces of sheet metal together to make a project box or make battery packs from existing cells a spot welder is an awesome piece of equipment anton and joshua both recently inaugurated members thought they would try making one themselves spot welders work by using heat generated by a material s resistance to melt metal pressed between its two electrodes unlike other forms of welding no material is added to join the contact points to lower mains electricity to the correct voltage for this welder anton and joshua rescued two transformers from broken microwave ovens they equipped the device with a controller board that regulates the time and the power of the weld the welder can be controlled by a pedal a button or a microswtich that is pressed when the electrodes contact the metal the welder joins a long list of projects that members have contributed to the space in their spare time recently like scott s home assistant demonstration lab a train s frankenstein idex 3d printer and the re arranging of the electronics area while this would be an awesome project on its own like the other projects listed it also enables others to do more at hacklab building tools is something we like doing around here anton said that he was inspired to make the spot welder when he needed to repair a few battery packs for power tools in the shop hacklab members and guests can now repair battery packs on their own avoiding costly replacements from manufacturers spot welders can also be a big help joining sheet metal for ducting creating project boxes and other applications where thin sheet metal needs to be joined as for anton he is already planning for his next projects he said that he is thinking of making either an electronic xylophone or a modified video microscope for electronics microsoldering comments off on a homemade spot welder what s going on
