Castlemakers offers classes to the general public, sometimes with a modest charge, so you can learn new things and to satisfy that inner desire to make something. Registering for these classes really helps us out so to make sure there’s enough equipment and components for class attendees.
Upcoming Classes
Reservations are always encouraged; you can contact us at classes@castlemakers-dot-org or stop by the makerspace. You can also subscribe to our monthly events newsletter to get the information by email.
On Wednesday December 10th at 7 pm we’re offering you can make your own glass holiday ornament using our kiln. You get the chance to learn about glass fusing and slumping by creating a simple holiday ornament from the glass we have at the makerspace. Then we’ll fire it up in our kiln so you can take your design home later. Cost of the class is $25 and spots are limited, so reservations are recommended.
Intro to 3D Printing & Tinkercad – In this all-ages class we’ll give you an overview of how 3D printing works then you design a small part in Tinkercad that we’ll help you print out. It’s a great way to learn the basics of 3D printing and the process to make parts. The class will be on Thursday December 11th at 6:30 pm. Cost of the 2 hour class will be $20, for reservations email classes@castlemakers.org.

Previous Classes
Our classes provide a good way for the public and our members to learn about using some of the equipment in the makerspace. They ranged from 3D printing, laser cutters, CNCs, and more. From electronics, soldering, solar, and of course microcomputers: including Arduinos, micro:bits and Raspberry Pi’s. We’ve even had a class on Artificial Intelligence(AI)! We try to show that anyone can learn old and new technologies – while having some fun doing it.
We’re not limited to technology though, many have an artistic flair, including Cricut classes, creating jelly art, glass fusing, and even welding. What we really enjoy is getting people from different areas & disciplines so they can help each other learn, innovate, and do things they didn’t know they could do!
