NYC Resistor, Hackerspace in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, US
NYC Resistor is a workspace in Brooklyn where people work on electronics projects and hands-on creations. The space includes tools for electronics, laser cutters, and machine shop equipment that members use for their projects.
It was founded in 2008 as a nonprofit space where people could share technology skills and knowledge. Since then, it has grown into an important hub for technical and creative collaboration in the neighborhood.
This space brings together people who share knowledge about electronics and making projects by hand. The regular craft nights and workshops create a sense of community where learning and building together are central to daily life.
The space opens on specific evenings throughout the week, particularly for regularly scheduled craft nights. Check ahead to find out when you can visit and what activities are happening during your planned visit.
Each member has a personal shelf to store ongoing electronics projects, showing how personal and long-term the work here is. These individual storage spaces let people leave their work in progress and return to it later.
