It’s time for Make: Live’s Best of 2011 show! We’ll be looking back at our favorite episodes from the very first season of Make: Live. Go behind the scenes with us for some of our most memorable moments– from goofs and gaffes to last minute surprises and change ups. And don’t miss the best of robots, blinky LEDs, fires & explosions, electronics and giant mobile contraptions.
We hope you enjoyed our gift guide coverage this year and our Kit-A-Day Giveaway. We had some 20,000 comments/entries all total and well over 3000 social media reposts. We gave away 28 days worth of kits, including five MakerBots. Congrats to all of the winners.
By now you’ve probably heard of the Make: Ultimate Kit Guide. If you haven’t, it’s a special publication where we, the staff of MAKE, sought out over 175 of the top kits of all kinds and rated them on quality, instructions, community, and more.
Happy Holidays from the Maker Shed Team! Still need to get that perfect gift? It’s not too late! The Maker Shed is shipping until 3PM PST today so you can still get that Ultimate Microcontroller Pack, Arduino, Supercap Racer or anything else in our store sent to your door by tomorrow!
To celebrate the release of our latest publication, the Make: Ultimate Kit Guide 2012 (and its companion website), we’re giving away at least one of the cool kits reviewed in the issue each day during the holiday season. Today’s giveaway is for a Gakken Mechamo Inchworm Kit (a $69.99 value.)
