World Maker Faire
The World Maker Faire was awesome!!!
Highlights:
- 3D printing village: the machines, the prints, everything
- Giant mousetrap
- Free pouches of applesauce
- Vegan paella
- Gumball machine that dispensed candy with a text message
- Pour-over coffee robot
- Umbrella violin
- Meeting Kacie (PrettySmallThings)
- Tiny cupcakes
- MakerShed
I also gave two intro to 3D printing talks for Make, and a sewing pattern generation talk. They were fun.

Hey Jenny! I saw your great talk on getting started with 3d printing at MakerFaire. I haven’t got a printer yet – I’m planning on building one to make formers for fibreglass rocket nosecones – but I was realy interested in what you were saying about being able to take images of an object, upload them to the interweb somewhere and get a 3d model back that you can then tweak. Can you remind me of the place you werre talking about that did this?
Thanks
Chris
