Fab Lab Austurland
Fab Lab Austurland opened in November 2014 as a collaboration between the Verkmenntaskóli Austurlands, Austurbrú and Innovation Center Iceland
Fab Lab is short for Fabrication Laboratory. We're set up to inspire and teach people about how to turn idea's into products, prototypes or art & design trough digital fabrication. We work with open source software and have various machines and processes available. Our capability's include lasercutting, vinylcutting, 3D printing, large format cnc milling, molding & casting, designing, creating and programming electronics.
