The Maker Shed is open for business at the Portland Mini Maker Faire and MakerBot is in the Tent! You can take your Replicator 3D printer home today for $2000.
We’ve got an array of kits (check out these rare Japanese kits from Gakken), Maker Media books like Getting Started with Arduino, and a great only-at-Maker-Faire subscription deal ($25 for 5 issues of MAKE!).
80+ makers, food trucks, speakers (including MAKE’s Dale Dougherty at 2PM) and more—all going on today and Sunday at OMSI, the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry.










It’s a lot of fun. We’re having a great time, and our kids are having a great time. Too much to see and do in one day.
This was so awesome! I’m excited for the exhibit coming to OMSI!
