Founding members Nick Britsky, Russ Wolfe and Ted Hansen take us on a tour of i3, Detroit’s premier hackerspace. Although well appointed with extensive workspaces and every tool imaginable, i3 Detroit’s real strength is its members, its sense of community, and the collaboration that occurs when makers have a place to meet and work.
