At HeatSync Labs in Mesa, AZ, I noticed an innovative approach for dealing with the stuff that members leave unattended in a makerspace. If members leave a project out on a table, they can be cited with a parking ticket by one of the board members.
Cool classes and other events around the hackerspace scene.
English-language magazine Exberliner profiles spaceship-themed Berlin hackerspace c-base in their October issue.
For many maker pros, finding the right amount of space can be difficult. One makerspace, Artisan’s Asylum, is offering a different model.
As planned, Hackert0wn will be an entire hacker ecosystem complete with retail shops stocked with spare parts, sleeping pods, a gym that feeds power back into the building, a co-working space, private offices, a cafe with a coffee dispensing robot, a dumpling shop, an aquaponic farm that raises fish and produce for nearby residents and restaurants, and a state-of-the art CNC machine shop. Oh, and all the buildings will be built out of recycled shipping containers.
On Wednesday night, Ft. Worth, TX makers gathered together to discuss creating a local makerspace. MAKE’s Maker-in-Chief Sherry Huss happened to be in town, thanks to an unrelated business summit, and an impromptu meetup was organized at the Woodshed Smokehouse…
Calling all makers interested in setting up a local Makerspace and makers that have kits they’d like to show us. The MAKE team will be hosting a meetup tonight at 8pm (with food and beverage) at Woodshed Smokehouse.
