[Specialized Skills] Build a Compact FM Radio!

Part of TIB FAB's specialized skills series, this workshop builds a compact FM radio while teaching PCB mounting and component-placement techniques for tight-tolerance enclosures. The focus is on going beyond simple kit assembly: learning how to fit a working circuit into a minimal case, with attention to mechanical case design and the basics of laser cutting. Participants take home the finished radio. The curriculum covers parts-placement know-how for product design, case fabrication via laser cutting, and is pitched at people aiming to start a manufacturing business as well as those with standard soldering experience. The session is capped at 5 attendees, open to ages 15 and up. Standard soldering skill is assumed; absolute beginners are directed to a separate intro session on soldering, testers, and oscilloscopes. Venue is Tokyo Innovation Base 2F TIB FAB, fee is 700 yen, and meet-up time is 11:50. Advance registration in the TIB member app is required.
