A New Sport: Crate Stacking
Crate stacking is a game. The objective is to stack as many upside-down plastic milk crates as possible and stand on the top. Come try it out at the East Bay Mini Maker Faire this Sunday in Oakland.
Maker Faire
Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth — a family-friendly festival of invention, creativity, and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the maker movement.
Part science fair, part county fair, and part something entirely new, Maker Faire is an all-ages gathering of tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science clubs, authors, artists, students, and commercial exhibitors. All of these people come to Maker Faire to show what they have made and to share what they have learned.
