What is "making" anyway?
In my introduction I mentioned I have a large community of "makers", and outside of my day job and my family, that is where most of my energy is spent.
Many of you might not call yourself a maker, but a bet a whole bunch of you are :)
Makers are people who, well, make stuff.
They repair things.
Assemble things.
Paint, code, sculpt, weld, glue, solder, wire.
Laser, saw, CNC, melt, mould ...
Makers are awesome.
Being a programmer, I am massively into Arduino
And Raspberry Pi
I use those to make robots and quadcopters! (I also have a DJI Mavic Pro drone)
I have 14 3d printers (incomplete list here), two laser engravers, and a CNC, plus I teach the above at our local maker space :)
There are a few manifestos going around, I am sure you can find them.
What I agree with is
If you can't open/fix it, you don't own it.
It's not just about figuring it out, it's about sharing what you learned.
Makers make the world better :)
