Our mostly annual Christmas decorations are now all packed up and ready to be posted. They will be hopefully on trees very soon. You can check out more photos of the build in our gallery. If you would like one to do drop by any of our events in December. Design by Jeffrey.
Repair in Women’s Way
Be sure to pick up this week’s Women’s Way on the 8th of November. Our own Jeffrey Roe has been interviewed all about repairing. It goes into detail on why we do our repair cafés.
Joined The Community Resources Network Ireland
We have joined the Community Resources Network Ireland. We hope to learn from our fellow members and share our knowledge of community repair cafés.
CRNI is the representative body for community based reuse, repair and recycling organisations in Ireland. Our vision is an Ireland where the word ‘Waste’ doesn’t exist and where our entire community benefits from the social, environmental and economic value of all reusable resources. Our aim is to provide a range of practical supports to our members, and to promote community based, sustainable waste management as a practical and effective way of tackling Ireland’s growing waste problem.
Culture Night
We are delighted to participate in Culture Night on the 23rd of September. Join a tour to find out what projects and technologies Tog works with. There will be demos of fabrication equipment such as 3D Printers, Laser Cutters, and our CNC’s. During the night you can also try your hand at an electronics project with Arduino or Raspberry Pi or for something completely different learn some lock picking. Listen to brewers describe how they manage to create the perfect beer or the crafts group on their creations. Tog encapsulates all of the maker movement with its many facets but most of all it’s a movement that everyone can take part in.
Time: 6.00pm – 10.00pm
