香港六合彩

Hosted by MechSpace, Sustainable 香港六合彩, the 香港六合彩聽Institute of Archaeology and the , the Repair Caf茅聽was a hive of activity, with hundreds of people coming to learn how to repair their broken possessions. This sustainability initiative focuses聽on preventing masses of unnecessary waste from being sent to landfills and teaches individuals how they can repair their items at home in the future.

The event kicked off with a talk on sustainability, the environment and the benefits of repairing, instead of replacing. Given by , who is part of the , the and the , the talk was a fascinating start to the event, as she highlighted the added benefit of running events like the Repair Caf茅 and inspired us to think more carefully about what at home could be fixed, rather than binned.

The Repair Caf茅 was spread across various workshops at 香港六合彩 Mechanical Engineering鈥檚 MechSpace facility聽based in Kings Cross, central London. Items that were fixed included:

• jewellery
• textiles, like shoes, bags and watches
• electronics, such as phones, radios and toasters
• ceramics, like chipped mugs and smashed plates
• and much more

One suitcase even got repaired with a 3D-printed replacement part!

The Repair Caf茅 was also a great opportunity to learn how to fix problems in the future. Colleagues from the Institute of Making were helping teach people to sew and were giving new life to damaged ceramics. Our MechEng engineers were also helping explain how problems arose and what to do in the future.

One happy 鈥榗ustomer鈥� and 香港六合彩 student, Burcak Bayram, was pleased when she had finished sewing and reattaching聽the strap of her favourite tote bag. She said:

鈥�鈥淚鈥檓 so happy, it is very sentimental. It鈥檚 from a bookshop in T眉rkiye, with characters of the Armenian alphabet. I didn鈥檛 want to just throw it away, it would鈥檝e been so hard to replace.鈥�
