### Your Creative Workshop Team

We are Aron Petau and Friedrich Weber Goizel — makers, educators, and passionate tinkerers from a lively makerspace in a Berlin secondary school. 

We bring the world of making to libraries, schools, and youth centers, offering hands-on workshops designed to spark creativity, curiosity, and technical skill.

Whether you already have a makerspace with 3D printers, laser cutters, or plotters, or you’re just starting out — we are flexible. 
We offer both portable showcases and introductory sessions as well as deep-dive workshops that build on your existing equipment. 
We tailor every workshop to your needs, audience, and space.

- Workshops in 3D printing, laser cutting, plotting, and 3D design  
- Flexible setup: using your equipment or bringing our own portable demos  
- Experience with school groups, libraries, and public audiences  
- Custom workshop concepts to match your goals and participants

Let’s turn your space into a hub of innovation and creativity.  
You can book us for one-time events or ongoing programs.
