General Introduction

Located in the beautiful city of Bamberg which is primarily known for its rich beer culture and cultural heritage it is no great surprise that the Backspace e.V. took up its home in a former pub. After its founding the members took some time to patch up and refurbish the rather dilapidated rooms: a new workspace, different working environments and a lounge were created. Backspace welcomes all interested people to visit them.

Projects

Even after only one year of existence there were already some noteworthy projects:

• DMX Lighting for the Lounge
• A styrofoam plotter for aluminum home casting
• Automated Doorcontrol

Equipment

For the interested we offer a complete workspace including a RepRap 3D Printer, a 2.5D mill and a robust wireless network including a onsite server.
