You have the idea, we have your tools
Welcome to Makerverse, a place for creative and curious makers within the FHNW. Here, students and staff meet, evaluate their concepts, experiment, drive group projects forward, and design the plans of tomorrow.
What to expect
Here you will find everything related to digital fabrication, from 3D printers and laser cutters to sticker plotters.
This combined workshop comprises a large machine and assembly room for woodworking, as well as a textile and paper workshop, which is also used for training and further education.
Whether welding, drilling or grinding: a wide range of metalworking opportunities awaits you here.
News
The Makerverse will be accessible from October 2025.

Be inspired by projects from other users. These often arise in interdisciplinary teams, which investigate their questions through experimentation and testing. Selected projects can be rented and tried out as a box.
Maker Clock
The MakerClock is an Arduino-powered clock. The inspiration for it came from the maker movement. The purpose of the MakerClock is to learn and practically implement the various techniques and activities required to make such a clock yourself.

ciro – the painting robot
Teachers and pupils program symbols, drawings or texts that the painting robot “ciro” draws on large pieces of paper or on the playground. The Makecode Editor from Microsoft provides a fun introduction to programming.

CookieCaster 2.0
CookieCaster 2.0 is a freely available web application that allows users to draw their own personal cookie cutters (cookie molds) and print them later using a 3D printer. Validation of the cookie cutter shape and sensible printing values (wall thickness and height) prevent the shape from being unsuitable or even unstable for 3D printing.

Water box
The water box can be used to examine water in terms of temperature, turbidity, electrical conductivity and pH value. The values of the various sensors are recorded using Arduino-based control electronics. Measured values can be read directly from the box or measured and saved over a certain period of time.

Maker marble run
The main aim of the Maker marble run is to awaken an interest in technology among pupils and teachers. The marble run is playfully designed on a PC and then produced using a 3D printer. After assembly, the students can try out the track and learn how to use technology in a playful way.
