Join us for this jewelry open studio session. Bring new ideas or half finished projects to class. We'll work on the best way to approach design and technical aspects to complete your vision. Don't worry if you don't have a project, we'll come up with a jewelry design that you will love to make! This is a great way to network with fellow makers.</p> <p>Intro to Jewelry Prerequisite Required&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> https://themakerlab.org/event-6879667 https://themakerlab.org/event-6879667 Fri, 13 Nov 2026 00:30:00 GMT <p>Celebrate the 2027 Super El Niño and the Holiday Arts &amp; Crafts Festival with a Snow Stake making two-fer! In this two‑part class, you’ll design your own Snow Stake, cut it on the CNC plasma cutter, and weld it together. You’ll make one to take home, if you choose, and one to donate to the Festival. In the Thursday design session, you will add your design to the group cut file. No experience necessary as we will be available to help guide you in learning the node editing tools to combine your custom shape to the top of the snow stake in VCarve. Saturday's Metal Shop times will be staggered so no one will need to wait. Intro to Metal is required, but you don’t need CNC experience — our instructors will guide the cutting. The class is free if you just want to help and learn while creating a snow stake to donate to MakerLab or for just&nbsp;$30 you can also keep one for your own yard. Proceeds from the Holiday Arts &amp; Crafts Festival get reinvested into our MakerLab space for us all to continue to use! Think Snow!</p> <p><img src="https://themakerlab.org/resources/Pictures/Snow%20Stake.JPG" alt="" title="" border="0"><br></p> https://themakerlab.org/event-6882379 https://themakerlab.org/event-6882379 Sat, 14 Nov 2026 17:00:00 GMT <p>Celebrate the 2027 Super El Niño and the Holiday Arts &amp; Crafts Festival with a Snow Stake making two-fer!
