June 2nd, FabLab Kobe β held opening event at Motomachi culture building 4F, Kobe, Japan.
FabLab Kobe is still version β, so we need to grow up to let world FabLab admit us as one of FabLab global network members.
First step of FabLab members, we have to under stand FabLab charter.
We will show you the charter selectively.
What’s in a fab lab?
Fab labs share an evolving inventory of core capabilities to make (almost) anything, allowing people and projects to be shared
The inventory contain 3D printer, vinyl cutter, CNC machine, and so on, which help us learn, make, share about creation.
So we focus on the inventory and the work for opening event named..
’Gather Digital tools and the work’
Here is the results.
[Digital tools]
Vinyl cutter
You can make sticker or your own T-shirts with the machine.
Mini laser engraver
Better to use for laser curving rather than cutting because the laser power is not strong. Instead of cutting, you can enjoy curving on the coaster.
Projecter
You can project anything for sharing your work and learning.
