For schools
Makerspace and STEM lab setup, maintenance and staff training.
We work with public and private schools, universities, libraries and museums. We help plan and equip a makerspace, keep the machines working under a maintenance contract, and train teachers and staff until they are confident running the space on their own.

Serving New York City, Long Island, New York State and New Jersey
What we do for schools
- Makerspace design and setup
- Planning the room, choosing and buying equipment, installation, ventilation and safety setup, and storage and workflow so a class can use the space without confusion.
- Maintenance contracts
- Scheduled service visits for your makerspace and labs: cleaning, calibration, replacing worn parts, and repairs when something breaks. One contact for all the equipment instead of a different vendor for each machine. All maintenance and repair work comes with a free warranty.
- Teacher and staff training
- Hands-on sessions on your own equipment covering safe operation, everyday use, simple fixes and how to plan lessons around each tool.
- Courses and workshops for students
- Classes in electronics, programming, robotics, 3D design and fabrication, run by us or co-taught with your teachers. For programming and hardware classes, SenetLab gives every student the same ready-made Linux desktop in the browser, with access to real devices.
- 3D printer repair
- Repairs, calibration and preventive maintenance for Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, Ultimaker and other 3D printers. See 3D printer repair.
- Robot repair
- Repairs and software help for classroom and research robots. We rebuild NAO V4, V5 and V6 robot batteries through our dedicated service, NAO Battery Repair.

How a maintenance contract works
- Site visit. We list every machine in your makerspace or lab, check its condition, and note what needs repair now.
- Plan. We agree on a visit schedule, what is covered, and who on your staff is the main contact.
- Regular service. Scheduled visits keep the equipment working. Between visits, staff can report problems and we come in for repairs.
- Training. We train your staff on each machine, so day-to-day use doesn't depend on us.
Common questions
- Can you maintain equipment our school already owns?
- Yes. We start with a site visit to list the equipment you have and its condition, then agree a maintenance plan.
- Can you train teachers who have never used the machines?
- Yes. Training is hands-on, on your equipment, and covers safe operation, everyday use and basic upkeep.
- Can you help before coming on site?
- Yes. Book a free video call and show us the problem. We diagnose it and give you a free quote, with no commitment. Some issues can be fixed during the call.
- Do you work outside New York City?
- Yes. We serve all of New York City, Long Island, the rest of New York State and New Jersey. If you are somewhere else, contact us anyway: the free video call works from anywhere, and we will see how we can help.
- Is your work covered by a warranty?
- Yes. All our repair and maintenance work comes with a free warranty. If something we fixed fails again because of our work, we come back and fix it at no charge.
- Do you repair robots?
- Yes. We rebuild NAO V4, V5 and V6 robot batteries through NAO Battery Repair, and help with robot software and other repairs.
Not sure what is wrong? Start with a free video call and quote.
A teacher or staff member shows us the machine on camera. We diagnose the problem, tell you whether we can fix it, and give you a quote. Sometimes we can talk you through a quick fix on the spot. Nothing is booked until you say yes, and all our work comes with a free warranty.
