Discussion about FabLab powered by Orange

Fablab powered by Orange is the place where representatives of different environments, ages, occupations can meet and exchange their ideas and knowledge.
We will host events, trainings, workshops for kids, youngsters and adults. Our audience is not only Warsaw and surroundings but whole Poland as well as international participants of Orange Foundation projects.
We will also cooperate and support start-ups gathered in Orange Fab.
On top of that we would like our lab to become the place integrating maker movement community not only in Poland but also abroad by co-organizing meetups, events, workshops with other FabLabs (i.e. labs affiliated with The Solidarity FabLabs project).

This is the general thread for discussing the lab; the thread is also visible on its page at https://www.fablabs.io/labs/FabLabTwarda

hey,
i’ve received an automatic email were i was asked to provide more details in slug and description sections.
could you please let me know what kind of details you expect?
thank you and have a great day!!!

At first I couldn’t contact them. For some reason, they have Facebook listed everywhere, but there are automatic replies. Then I wrote a letter, but there was some kind of misunderstanding or they took too long to answer me and plans had already changed. Then I asked my wife to call and she tried for about a month to arrange for us to come. I began to suspect my wife that she did not want to come to an agreement. I started calling myself and for two weeks now I have not been able to visit this fablab. Nobody needs such a fablab!

For the past two weeks, I have been unable to attend this fablab since I began to call myself. This kind of fablab is unnecessary!

Frustrating if you cannot contact a certain fablab, especially if you do not know the reason. Do you need some specific info or support?

Thank you, i will try

Hello! I am sorry to hear that you had problems organising your visit at our Lab.
If you need information about our open workshop and tours at FabLab - the monthly schedule is always listed here at the end of each month https://fablabwarszawa.pl/warsztaty
For open workshop (otwarta pracownia) and tours (oprowadzanie) you do not need to make reservations. All details are in each event description.
If you wish to come and organise a tour apart of our regular tours, please contact us via email.
Greetings!

Hi, sorry to hear you had problems contacting us. I see you posted your comment on the 8th of May - it is around our public holidays in Poland and usually our suff (as most of the people in Poland) takes vacation at that time - from the last week of April to the first week of May. I suppose that could be the reason why you had problems to reach us.
We are open and working - if you have any questions please contact us by email.

Finally it happened! I finally saw what was going on there! Thanks to Alexchandra.

Some of the exhibits amazed me, some machines were very expensive, I liked the machine that creates embroidery on clothes.

In the evening I came to the electronical workshop - which turned out not to be a workshop at all, but simply “the opening time of the laboratory” (maybe I have wrong meanning of the workshop word). But I met very nice people with whom we fixed my computer and then cheerfully disassembled old CD-ROMs for spare parts. Thanks
