About /usr/space
/usr/space is a makerspace in Leobersdorf, run by the Verein zur Förderung der technisch-sozialen Kompetenz und Kreativität (association for the promotion of technical and social skills and creativity). The space at Hauptstraße 26 is open to members and anyone interested in technology or art. According to the municipality, members of different ages share their knowledge there, for example in mechanics, electronics, computing and astronomy. The association buys tools and equipment that individuals could hardly afford.
Regulars' evening and membership
Every Wednesday from 19:00 there is a regulars' evening at the space. If you want to become a member, it is best to drop in there first, read the statutes and submit an application. The board decides on admission.
- Membership fee: 25 euros a month
- Reduced: 10 euros for pupils, students and pensioners
- Supporting members: a voluntary higher fee, also for companies
Repair Café
At the Repair Café you repair whatever you can carry yourself, with help from volunteers: radios, DVD and Blu-ray players, kettles, toasters, microwaves, laptops including software, or toys. Tools, some parts and experience are free, and a donation is welcome. Excluded are large appliances such as washing machines, high-voltage and medical devices, and cars. The Repair Café takes place several times a year, alternating between Leobersdorf and the Zöchlingtrakt of the Wasserschloss Kottingbrunn, each time from 9:00 to 15:00. The dates are on the association's website.
Keeping old computers in use
One of the association's aims is to keep using old computers with Linux instead of throwing them away. In the End of 10 project it helps people switch after the end of Windows 10.
