Welcome!
Thank you for joining our community space.
Got things which need some TLC, are perhaps a bit broken and you haven't had the time or skills to fix them yourself? Don't throw them away, bring them to THINQTANQ and have a go at fixing them. We will have a mix of experts and complete beginners all willing to get stuck in on their projects! You don't need to be a handy man to fix most things and with a combination of coffee, internet videos, encouragement and some skill sharing you could well revive your posessions, save money and reduce your refuse footprint. Even if it can't be fixed, you will still have a great time, meet new people and learn new skills!
We will be part of a world-wide event celebrating REPAIRING STUFF. Our location may move, but sign up here and we will keep you up to date with the RC.
FAQs
We will have some tech experts, electronics, programming, general making, 3d printing and more. If you would like to add your skills and experience to the list, please let us know at exploremesh@gmail.com
Just drop us an email on exploremesh@gmail.com and let us know. We will get right back to you!
Try to keep the things small enough to carry! But if you aren't sure, drop us an email at exploremesh@gmail.com and we will give you an idea if its a good idea to bring it!
No, probably not. We have our own stuff to fix too but we can give youa helping hand, steer you in the right direction and help you build your confidence so you can get to work inspiring others too!
We will pair a fixer up with a fixee so they can work on the item :) We plan to pop the coffee on, open the biscuits and take it as it comes. If you are happy to chat in a relaxed and awesome atmosphere whilst tinkering and learning new skills, this could be your new saturday destination!
There is no minimum age, but for safeguarding reasons under 18's need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
There are lots of parking spaces around the area but our favourite is the car park under the Staples building. It is close by, offers long stay and is good value.
Simply email exploremesh@gmail.com and tell us what is on your mind!
Mmm not really (save the trees!). Bring your e-ticket or just make sure you can remember your name!
