Fablab Vagur is an introductory fablab for making simple parts and protype for kids at school. It is located in a primary/secondary school where it makes us close to the young generation of makers.

Our community is mostly organized around children and teenagers projects. We are also lucky to bring to the Fablabs parents and family from time to time.

Up to 7 persons open the lab every month coordinating by one fabmanager : Tina.

In five years, we got different ways of financing our Fablab : - Private donations in 2017 - Municipality in 2020 - Finance act in 2022

We are still looking for our stable economic model and always look for new partners to support us.
