This class will cover safety of the powder coating area, powder coating gun, air compressor and the powder coating oven. You will get to powder coat an item to take home to show off to your friends! Once you complete this class you be authorized to use the powder coating equipment.
Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The coating is typically applied electrostatically and is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a “skin”. It is usually used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint. Powder coating is mainly used for coating of metals.

A Gameboy Macro is a modified Nintendo DS console that has had it’s top screen removed and a resistor inserted so that it still boots through the system checks without a top screen. The Gameboy macro is intended to play Gameboy advance games using original Nintendo hardware emulation.
The class will cover working with very small screws, taking out screens, shell modification and a tiny bit of soldering of a resistor and a speaker wire.
Every participant will leave with a working gameboy macro (that needs a bit of cosmetic touch up from removing the top screen). If anything breaks during reassembly I will have spare parts to ensure everyone completes the project.
All ages are welcome, but minors must have parents in the room.
