![2024 Fab Academy Instructor Bootcamp in León](images/leon_2024.jpg){ : style="width:100%" }*The 2024 Fab Academy Instructor Bootcamp in León, Spain. My contributions: [BLDC Modular Thing](https://academany.fabcloud.io/fabacademy/2024/bootcamp-instructors/workshops/BLDC-Modular-Thing/) and [Chat with your repo](https://academany.fabcloud.io/fabacademy/2024/bootcamp-instructors/workshops/Chat-with-your-repo/).

I've set up [Iceland's first Pre Fab course](https://www.fabisa.is/N%C3%A1msefni/Pre-Fab/0-yfirlit/). I think it's essential that prospective Fab Academy students try a few things before starting the course itself, so that they know what they're getting into! Before I started the Fab Academy, [Þórarinn](https://fabacademy.org/archives/2015/eu/students/gunnarsson.thorarinn_b.b/about.html) taught me to mill on the ShopBot, [Hafliði](http://archive.fabacademy.org/fabacademy2016/fablabreykjavik/students/272/index.html) walked me through making a simple capacitive sensor and [Árni](https://fabacademy.org/2022/labs/isafjordur/students/arni-bjornsson/about/) helped me set up a website. It was unplanned and informal, but it helped me a lot.
I've also been scratching my head over how [Tom Dubick](http://archive.fabacademy.org/2016/charlottelatin/students/999/about.html) takes a cohort of high school students through the Fab Academy every year. We need at least one Tom in every country. I noticed in his students' documentation that they go through a short Pre Fab course before starting the Fab Academy. So I thought it couldn't hurt to try it here, too.

<p>There is a before and after the Fab Academy. I now know how an <a href="https://hackaday.com/2020/08/13/under-pressure-how-aluminum-extrusions-are-made/">aluminum profile feels</a>. You know, they don't heat the material that much, they just push it with enormous force until it deforms and takes on the shape of the die. Before I was a disorganized scatterbrain. Now I'm a scatterbrain who talks about designing things in spirals and documenting everything, not because I'm being forced to do it anymore but because I enjoy the process. What is happening to me?</p>
