Description

Erfindergarden ([ɛɐ̯ˈfɪndɐ] Erfinder means inventor in German) started with Minecraft Hacking Workshops for children that we tought in fablabs all over Europe and soon became a regular Friday Club in the Fab Lab Munich. Since 2016 we are having our own location. The first location was a small shop in the Oefelstr. 9 near the river Isar where we developed a local DIY community of teenagers, kids and neighbours.

Since August 2019 we have moved to the Viehhof and are building a workshop space in and old tram. Since November 2019 we also a small lab near by with all our 3d printer, the laser and the electronics party. We are still working to get our full infrastructure working again but we plan to open a open Fablab in 2021.

We are inspired by the ways children learn when they are on their own like painting with hands or building things with legos or minecraft blocks instead of being forced to remember facts and figures. We want to replicate this style of learning and give them the playground to create, explore and experiment with digital and also non digital fabrication tools.

We now a the complete list of machines of the fablab inventory like a big CNC, a Lasercutter, a Vinyl Cutter, a Precision Milling and several 3D Printers.

Big kids can use the lab every Saturday and during our workshops.

We also offer Fab Academy - the official program to train fab lab staff called "How to make (almost) anything" since 2017 as the only fab lab in the South of Germany. If you are interested send us a mail to academy@erfindergarden.de.
