Children’s dismantling Saturday: taking apart electronics, Paranduskelder, Tartu

Come and take electronics apart with us!

When electrical devices are broken or simply outdated, they do not necessarily have to be thrown away entirely. If the device itself can no longer be repaired, many of the parts inside can be reused. For example, an old computer CD drive contains a tiny motor that can be connected to a battery to build a toy car.

Taking electronics apart is exciting because a machine contains a huge number of strange parts. A common home printer may hold 300–500 different parts, and an office device even 1,000! There are small screws, plastic pieces, wires, and each part has its own function. Taking machines apart is a hands-on way to understand how they work.

Time and place: 28 November 2026, 11:00, Paranduskelder, Kastani 42, Tartu.
