One of our members built a 3D printed Battle/Death Racer. If you haven't heard of them: Death Racers are small motorized vehicles where the goal is to knock the hat off the other rider's figure. The more racers, the better the duels.

Now he just needs a few more makers to build their own so the battles can finally begin.

Look who just came around the corner, it's Wall-E!
This little robot is one of our members' projects, and he is currently working on his autonomous capabilities so he can drive around without external help.

We got a new table saw and had the chance to test its additional safety feature, which helps prevent injuries from contact with body parts.

No wiener was seriously harmed in this experiment! We hope to integrate the saw into our current setup soon.

As mentioned in previous posts, our Munich Maker Lab logo often serves as a test for different production methods, from 3D printing to screen printing and embroidery, but this one was not on our bingo card: the Munich Maker Lab logo as a tufted rug.

As part of our electronics workshop, participants can turn leftover electronic components into creative tiny creatures. This little wizard even got a staff with a working lantern.

Some impressions from our last hands-on soldering workshop.

We do not run this workshop regularly, but a new date is planned for fall, including some special Halloween soldering kits. Stay tuned for updates.

Since a while, we have a lent screen printing machine in the lab and one of our members is currently doing a lot of experiments with it.

Here are some impressions from the first self-made Munich Maker Lab screen and the first prints.

One of our members has kindly lent an embroidery machine to the lab.

Here it is in action...

Some impressions from our setup for the Kreativ Labor Open a few weeks ago, with some colorful DIY lighting.

Some impressions from our last Open Doors Day, with a wide range of offerings and lots of demo projects on display.

It was a great chance to show what the lab is about, share ideas, and give visitors a look at what we build and explore together.

One of our members recently joined a stained glass workshop to learn the basics, and quickly turned that knowledge into her own creations.

She designed and built two beautiful pieces after the course, each with its own distinct style.

Some great pieces made in one of our Tiffany stained glass workshops, now on display in our demonstration shelf alongside many other fine things built at the lab.

One of our members got tired of cutting screws to the right length by hand, so they printed and built a handy jig for the Dremel to do it precisely.

The main visual part of this project is finished. It started during a lab reorganization: old components that still work but disappear forever once they go back in the box. So we put them on the wall instead — breadboards, opened devices, circuit boards on display for everyone to see and take if useful.

Small repairs, real impact: the dishwasher wheels had gone brittle over the years. Chris and Chris designed and printed replacements. The first PLA version got a flat right away, but ABS holds. Also rescued: a thyme shaker with a broken lid, now fitted with a new printed lid featuring a "T" hole.

Two members rescued a lonely bike from the trash. Since both wanted to learn more about bike repair, they went all in: completely disassembled it, cleaned and oiled all the important parts, repainted the frame and put it all back together. The result is a nicely refreshed retro bike.

Our Bluetooth sound panel was getting buggy, so one motivated member rebuilt it from scratch using our electronics stock. The new MuMaLab Control Panel has soldered connections, industrial-grade buttons, a logarithmic fader and a sturdy TRS aux input. No more crackling, no more loose connectors.

No proper maker yard without a proper flag. One of our members took the initiative and ordered a Munich Maker Lab flag to make our space easier to find in the industrial area and somehow we ended up with two delivered. A happy accident, because now we also have a great banner inside the space, so no one can miss where they are.

Welcome to the club, flags.

We now have a second button machine and this one handles bigger buttons too. A member even built a custom app to design the prints.

Name tags for the Kreativlabor Open are ready. Come by and make your own button at the Open Doors Event!

One of our members collected some old wooden boards and crafted a cherry end grain cutting board from them. It took time, patience and a fair amount of effort, but the result turned out better than expected.

Recently, we helped out our neighbors from the Spectrum Maker Space. They had sourced a special rubber material to laser-cut a custom stamp, with the housing to be 3D printed on top of that.
The result is really nice and we are thinking now to make also custom stamps with our own Logo.

Yesterday we hosted the 3rd Open Workshop Stammtisch together with werkbox3 and treibut at the Kreativlabor, welcoming guests from Munich, Freising, Rosenheim and beyond. We toured all three initiatives, exchanged ideas and wrapped up with a barbecue. Find open workshops near you: https://offene-werkstaetten.org/

After selling our old DIY-built CNC machine, we now have a new one on loan from a member. Setup with housing and proper controls is in progress, hopefully ready soon. A great example of our free-to-use principle: members loaning their machines to the community when they don't need them at home.
