Fab Lab Club UF

In the Spring of 2013 Fab Lab Club held various design charettes to figure out what to do with scrap wood pieces donated to us from a previous project. Early on we decided to focus the efforts of our first project on our Fab Lab as it lacked a comfortable atmosphere. We had designs ranging from light fixtures, to shelves, to gator tail sculptures! Ultimately we decided to create an undulating form, which we are calling "Abstracted Geometric Dunes" It is suspended from the ceiling and features 3D printed pots to add some much needed greenery to the space. It has had a big impact on the lab for the short amount of time it has been up and was a great first collaborative effort by the club!

Each Fall the clubs within the College of Design, Construction and Planning put a big event together to get students involved. This year The Fab Lab Club made its debut! We put together a photobooth complete with corbusier eyeglasses and basswood bowties made in the lasercutters and had guest appearances by Zaha Hadid and Bjark Ingles. Overall the event was a huge success!

This week we are moving on to 3D Printing! meetings Wednesday at 6pm in the Fab Lab!

First Meeting of the semester tonight! We have a lot of exciting things to share with you, be the first to know and come tonight at 6pm (we'll be in the A2 Fab Lab-Arch 307)

The UF A² Fab Lab Open house last Thursday was a great success! Check out the pictures to see what you may have missed!

The UF A² Fab Lab, a collaboration between the College of Design, Construction and Planning and UF College of Fine Arts, hosted an open house on Oct. 24 at 6 p.m. that was open to everyone on campus and in the Gainesville community. The event had live demos of laser cutters, 3D printers, a 3D scanner and CNC router, as well as student work on display, information on the Fab Lab Club and the new Fab Lab internship program.
