Just a reminder there is a business meeting this Tuesday 4/8/2014 at 7PM sharp.

It’s Friday night at the space, clearly that means its time to work on projects, clean, and of course, update all the computers!

Thanks to everyone that showed up at our weekly 3D printer night. The smoke is not from the 3D printers, someone donated smoke machines and we couldn’t resist playing with them.

Our next learn to weld class will be on 5-24-2014 from 2:00 pm – 5:00pm. Tickets are available on Eventbrite at the link below.
