We look to provide a place for people to meet and have fun, and to share new games with each other. Gaming runs from 1:00 until everyone wants to leave! Anyone is free to come and play from any of the games we’ve brought, or bring your own to share with us. All ages are welcome – gamers under 18 please bring a parent / guardian.

Many DIY projects require welding. This can be a show stopper for many hobbyists. Do you dream of building a roll cage, bicycle, tools or furniture?
In this two day introductory workshop, you will learn the fundamentals of welding.
Taught by Wade Barocsi an automotive welding and metallurgy instructor at NVCC.
Dates:
Saturday March 18 10am – 12:30pm and Sunday March 19 10 – 12:30pm.
CTH Member Cost $59 + $20 materials fee.
Non-Member Cost $79 + $20 materials fee.
We will start with a bit of basic theory and safety. It can be intimidating to get started welding because of the potential dangers involved and the complexity of the equipment.
Starting with torch welding has a lot of advantages, what you learn by torch welding is applicable to all other forms of welding.
We will also talk about welding on a budget, and what types of welding are best for you.
This two day class will cover:
• Safety
• Oxyfuel welding
• Oxyfuel cutting
• Brazing
Additional classes will build upon what you have learned and will include;
• MIG welding (GMAW)
• TIG welding (GTAW)
• Plasma Cutting
