DESCRIPTION:Join Jon and the team to finalise work on our removable micro hydro generator in the stream behind our venue. \nBy the end of these sessions we hope to have the turbine which has been researched and tweaked over the last 18 months up and running. \nThere are lots of small and larger jobs to do to get this done and we’re keen for anyone with an interest to get involved. Participants will have the opportunity to learn and share knowledge as well as be creative. We will be doing some practical work\, mostly outside\, drilling\, fixing\, sawing\, cabling\, and some internet work. \nSessions will run fortnightly from Saturday 1st February until 15th March\, 1-3pm.\nIf it’s your first session\, please arrive from 12.45pm for a brew and a chat.\nTaking place between Studio 1 and the stream. Meet in Studio 1. \nActivities may include: \n\nFixing the cable conduit and running cables between the turbine and the annexe building.\nFixing and connecting 2 x CCTV cameras near the turbine. These are to monitor water levels\, potential flooding\, and for security.\nFitting the removable weir and feed pipe. This is to direct water into the turbine.\nReinforcing the stream bed near the weir to prevent damage during high rainfall. It’s been scoured quite a bit recently and needs some TLC and reinforcement.\nInstalling and testing the turbine generator version1.\n\nPlease note: this activity may include trip hazards\, wet\, muddy\, rainy time spent outside so dress appropriately with sturdy and waterproof footwear etc. \nAges 12+.
