MAKE Asks: Inspiring Others

MAKE Asks: Inspiring Others


Make: Asks is a weekly column where we ask you, our readers, for responses to maker-related questions. We hope the column sparks interesting conversation and is a way for us to get to know more about each other.

This week’s question: What have you done to influence or help others in making their own creations?

I have a friend who regularly holds rooftop washer pitching tournaments. After telling him about my physical computing experience, he purchased an Arduino Kit and started working on an LED scoreboard that he can control with his IPhone.

Post your responses in the comments section.
