Thursday May 15, 2008 Links for 15th May 2008 - Maker Faire Links - Part 1
These are all Maker Faire ones. Part 1 of 2. They come from various handouts and cards I collected when I was there, and are of things I'd like to look at in more detail. They are in no particular order.
- ShopBot PartWorks and PartWorks 3D
"The perfect software for Sign Making, Woodworking and Engraving."
- Timberkits
"Mechanical Marvels in Natural Wood."
- ALERT
Active Learning Environment with Robotic Tangibles.
- Alameda County Computer Resource Center
"Obsolescence is Just a Lack of Imagination."
- Ponoko
"You choose, create or customize an original design and we'll make it for you."
- GalaxyGoo
"GalaxyGoo is science, art, and discovery. Our primary mission is to increase science literacy. The resources we develop are free to teachers, students, and the general public."
- Surplus Center
Request their 2008 catalog.
- Exploratorium Snacks
"These pages are full of Snacks...but they're not the kind you eat. They're the kind you can learn from and have fun with. Exploratorium Science Snacks are miniature versions of some of the most popular exhibits at the Exploratorium."
- Commuter Cars Corporation
And in particular their Tango car.
"Doubling freeways. Quadrupling parking. 0-60 mph in 4 seconds.
An ultra-narrow, freeway-capable, stable, safe vehicle that fits anywhere a motorcycle fits."
- bug labs
"BUG makes it fun and easy to build any gadget you can imagine. Build familiar things like digital cameras and GPS locators or create new devices like a LoCamMotion or a GeoPhotoShooter or an Accel-o- Mailer or ... the list is endless!"
