Always wanted to build a go-kart but don’t know how to weld? Or maybe you would like to make an iPhone game, but don’t know how to program? Or perhaps you have ideas for some cool electronics projects, but don’t really know how to get started? More likely, you have even better ideas. Our Fall DIY class series is just the thing to help get your projects out of your head and into the real world.
We offer hands on classes in all areas of Fabrication, Design, Programming, etc. Examples include Welding, CNC, Arduino, C Programming, CAD, 3D Printing and Stepper Motor Design to name a few. Check them out at our class registration page. Nowhere else in Houston will you be able to learn so much in such a short time and get hands on experience with such exciting topics, and all for such reasonable prices.
This year, all of us at TX/RX Labs are very pleased and excited to be in a new and much larger facility at 205 Roberts St., Houston, TX 77003.

I just heard about Hackerspace and the whole world of Makers. This is all so very cool! My 9 year old daughter is a maker at heart and I know would love to be part of this. How old does one need to be to join/take classes? Thanks!

Sorry for the slow reply to this. I'd say it kind of depends on which class, and on the 9-year-old. I would encourage you to come out to either the open house that we have each Friday night around 7:00pm, or to the Pancake Science Sunday about 11:00am on each Sunday and come talk to the folks there and get a feel for the place, and I think that will do more to answer your questions than is really possible here in the comment section.
