brmlab moved on March 25th 2018, and we spent some time rebuilding our glorious hackerspace. Everything should be working now, expect 250 m2 of hackerspace, including electronic lab, mechanical room, biolab, small chemical lab, High-voltage things, HAM place (+licence), antennas , lockpicks, vintage/exotic hardware, 3d printers, diy cnc, clima-chamber, microscopes, small kitchen, terrace on the roof, …
Our space is open whenever some member is inside. In general, you'll have hard luck finding anyone there during the day, but most of the evenings, it is occupied. If you want to visit us, the best time is Tuesday evening or whenever some event is scheduled. Curious about what you can see in brmlab?
Entrance HowTo
EN
- use white sliding gate on the intersection of Na Třebešíně a Pod Kapličkou
- go straight downhill and then right by the trees to the parking lot
- use the gray door (with brmlab poster) to enter the building and go to the 2nd floor (brmlab signs everywhere). In case the doors are locked, use the bell
- brmlab is on the left (lot of stickers on the door), futlab is on the right
Members can get inside anytime using their key (for the door below) and RFID card. Non-members need to get help from someone inside. (100% chance on Tuesday evenings, about 75% other evenings (less during the holidays)).
CZ
- na křižovatce ulic Na Třebešíně a Pod Kapličkou vlezeme bránou do areálu.
- sejdeme z kopečka a pod kopečkem se dáme doprava okolo krovi k parkovisti
- sedymi dveřmi (s A4 posterem brmlab) dovnitř, nalevo je schodiště, vylezeme do 2. patra. Pokud jsou dveře zamčené, použijeme zvonek
- brmlab je po levé straně (spousta nálepek na dveřích), po pravé straně je futlab
Jsi-li člen, dostaneš se dovnitř pomocí klíče (pro spodní dveře) a RFID karty. Nejsi-li člen, je třeba pomoc někoho zevnitř. 100% šanci máš v úterý večer, jiné večery cca 75% (o prázdninách méně), dopoledne leda když ještě někdo nestihl jít spát…
Public transport
EN
- the nearest well connected tram public transport station is “Mezi hrbitovy”. From here, the walk to the brmlab last cca 7 minutes.
- there are closer bus stops “Červený dvůr” (bus 124) and “Třebešín” (155,175), but they are not very frequently used. From the bus stops, the walk to the lab last cca 3 minutes.
CZ
- nejblizsi frekventovanou zastavkou s mnoha spoji MHD je “Mezi hřbitovy”. Primo u zastavky je pumpa OMW, kde i zacina ulice “U nakladoveho nadrazi” a tou se dame rovne. Postupne se budeme blizit k budove s napisem “Nagano Park”, k ni vsak ale az nedojdeme, nybrz zahneme doprava kolem pumpy “MOL” a dojdeme na dalsi krizovatku ulic “Pod kaplickou” a “Na Trebesine”. Vchod do arealu je primo u teto krizovatky po vasi leve ruce. Cesta pesky trva cca 7 minut.
- o neco blizsi jsou autobusove zastavky “Červený dvůr” (124) a “Třebešín” (155,175), ty vsak uz nejsou tolik frekventovane. Ze zastavek je to jeste asi 3 minuty pesky.
Parking
Usually you can park your car at street near the facility main gate. At some places is parking allowed only for some time.
For supply delivery is possible to park directly in front of the building and use the big elevator.
Bicycle route
If You are into using a bike-sharing we'd recommend Rekola. There is an Rekola parking spot right in front of the areal.
