Maker Faire
This is not a tip but rather a report - I had a great time yesterday and today at the Maker Faire in San Mateo. My most favorite exhibit was Crabfu's steamtoys which showed off such gems as a steam powered centipede and an R/C tank. Another favorite exhibit was Jeff and Anca's cardboard hat making station. They brought along a bunch of cardboard scraps and let everyone build stuff - my daughter built a nice volcano, complete with burning village.
I'm really jazzed by all the stuff that I saw. I can't wait to get into some robotics with my daughter this summer.
