Each week we'll endeavour to publish some details of the interesting things that members of DoES Liverpool have been up to over the past seven days. You can find out a bit more about them in
our introductory post.
And remember, if you're involved with DoES Liverpool at all, let us know what you get up to so we can include it here!
New Boost Membership Round – July Start
Just a reminder that it's time to apply for the next round of our Boost membership, starting 1st July. Please tell anyone you think might benefit.
Boost Membership was introduced to celebrate the 10th anniversary of DoES Liverpool – the amazing coworking and shared workshop space in the Fabric District of Liverpool. It gives two people the opportunity to use the space free of charge for six months either
with an allocated desk or by having 24-hour access to the workshop.
As things continue to be difficult for people due to inflation, fuel prices and all the economic woes we’re dealing with at the moment we thought it would be worth pointing out that Boost membership is open to anyone, even existing paying members. If 6 months
free membership would help you out at the moment then feel free to apply, of course if you’re not already a paying member you are still welcome to apply.
Applications are open until 11:59pm on Saturday 31st May 2025, any applications received after this point will not be considered. We will endeavour to announce the winners as soon as possible afterwards.
We had a great time at Wirral MakeFest (see photos below), thanks to everyone who took part, and to the event organisers who made sure everything ran smoothly. Just another reminder that this year’s Liverpool Makefest will be on Saturday 5th July. It's the
10th anniversary edition, so hopefully there will be lots of returning makers from the first event - we've been there every time!
Â
Please get in touch if you want to display your stuff on our stand (Github issue here that you can add your details to).
If you or any makers you know would like their own stand then
please fill out the form here before the end of the month. Spread the word!
Things of Note
Adrian McEwen:Currently running what's probably the longest 3D print to be done at
@DoESLiverpool, a reprint (but at higher resolution) of the DoES Tower - a model of the St. John's Beacon here in Liverpool.
It's not actually going to take nearly 10 days, that's the printer being pessimistic; but it will be nearly 4 and a half days 😄
Museum in a Box:We were out yesterday at Wirral Makefest and having a lovely day telling everyone about how MiaB works. We're
featured on the
@DoESLiverpool stand, which is where we have our office.
DoES Liverpool:Some of the DoES Liverpool team, with visitors, at
#wirralmakefest2025Â on Saturday.
Thanks to the organisers. We had an excellent time meeting visitors and other makers.
Mike brought along two panels of his VLG (Very Large Rug), which can be seen in the background. #WeekNotes
PVTV’s Creative Meet-Ups are informal, collaborative sessions where
artists, filmmakers, and creatives of all levels come together to share
ideas, work on projects, and develop new skills. Whether you're into
filmmaking, animation, or experimental art, these meet-ups offer a
supportive space to brainstorm, get feedback, and connect with
like-minded individuals. Everyone is welcome, and no experience is
necessary—just bring your enthusiasm!
Maker Night
Our free weekly evening meeting where you can find out about our space and all the making equipment in it, get a laser cutter or CNC embroidery machine induction, and work on projects from physical computing and electronics to 3d printing, routing and sewing.
Just pay for materials used.
The DoES Liverpool to-do list is stored in the
issues of our Somebody Should repository on github. Head over there if there's something you'd like to report, or if you want to help out fixing things.
