It's the demo night we've all been waiting for!

Our plumbing expert will share basic home plumbing tricks and give you the confidence to tackle a simple leak yourself. We're covering how to fix a leaky tap and re-assembly of said tap, difference between ABS and PVC pipes, and we'll also do a soldering demo.

There is ample time for Q & A, so bring your plumbing-specific questions!

Some tools are good for many things while some tools are good for one thing and one thing only. One such tool is the biscuit joiner (sometimes also called a Lamello joiner) - we have two of them at the OTL!
Thebiscuit Joiner is designed for only one purpose - to help join pieces of wood together, typically to make table tops or other furniture. Think of it as a small circular saw that cuts horizontally.
To learn more about how it works, drop into the Ottawa Tool Library and speak with one of our #ToolNinjas!
