Sydney-based troubleshooting PD due to popular demand!


Bob Death will be teaching hands on troubleshooting and repairs of everyday lab equipment and safety around induction coils and VDG generators. There will be an opportunity for you to bring a piece of faulty equipment so you can learn how to make basic repairs. Also bring your multimeter to learn how to use it effectively.


Bob will be guided by what people would most like to learn, so let us know!
