OFFICIAL OPENING
Save the date: On November 19, 2025, we will celebrate the official reopening of FabLab Chemnitz!
Note regarding the offer/restriction: We have been offering the weekly open workshop from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. again for a while now. However, we are still working on a few key areas until the opening in order to restore the original workshop offering from Philippstraße and are struggling with various infrastructure problems in the Stadtwirtschaft.

Fighting against the Hangprinter patent

Hangprinter

Dear Hangprinter fans,

recently it was painfully brought to my attention that there are people in the US who thought it would be an insanely great idea to wrap the Hangprinter concept, which has been open source for years longer, in a US patent and publish it in January 2022. This patent should never have existed, as its contents are not a novelty and therefore not suitable for patenting.
