We are running a sewing clinic on a monthly basis at Swansea Hackspace. The workshop is running on a drop in basis and is open to all skill levels. You can also bring your own machine or use the one that we have in the space! Did you always want to give it a go but threading a sewing machine feels daunting? We can help you take your first steps. Is your machine playing up recently? We can show you the basics of servicing and maintaining it. Do you have a project you are stuck with or you never have time to work on it at home? Come and meet other sewists and get inspired to finish it!

Interested in finding out about amateur radio and how to get licenced or have a licence and want to check your new radios performance on our equipment? One of our existing licence holders should have all the info you need.

This is your hackspace. Whilst the directors have to take care of the paperwork and legal aspects of running the hackspace, they are volunteers and members just like you and don't always have the time to put on workshops of their own. You don't need to be a director to run a workshop or other event, you don't even need to be an "expert" at anything.
If you have any kind of skill or craft that you are enthusiastic about, maybe something you just got started on, or something you wanted to try out but never found the time. Pretty much anything that you want to share with the world, or that would be more interesting if done as a group, can become a workshop of some kind.
If you have such an idea then please share it, simply pick a date from the calendar that isn't already in use, and let the directors know. This can be a one off, or a recurring event, choice is yours.
We welcome anyone that would like to run a workshop, or add Suggestions you would like to see.
