The Electrolab is a built from scratch hackerspace willing to provide a nice place to work on any electronic / mechanic project. Our space is located in an industrial area, close to the public transportation (5mn) and from Paris (less than 30mn). It is organized as follows:
- a main room, with whiteboards, storage, couches, and a main 25 seats meeting table
- a fully equiped kitchen + a minimalistic bathroom
- a very well equiped room for electronics (+ storage)
- a very well equiped room for chemistry (+ storage)
- a "big projects" room for projects that need space and should stay in the lab for a few months
- a rooms for mechanics, with a lathe, a milling machine, a band saw, a TIG soldering station, a handheld plasma cutter, two CNC milling machines and a lot various smaller equipment.
Meetings/public openings are every Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8pm till quite late. The lab is also often open on weekends, and for special occasions on other weekdays. We have a social event (home-cooked diner + discussions about current topics) every other tuesday. Workshops are sometime organized. We are still building the place, although we're almost done ! usually we dedicate one weekend per month for this activity. We are far from being elitists: new members, whatever their current skills/projects are, are welcome. Visitors are also more than welcome !
You can check:

Currently, most of those ressources are in french, unfortunately. Anyway, feel free to email us and/or join #electrolab@irc.freenode.net for further information.
