Detroit MakerFaire Trip Report
By amackie
Another year, another fun-filled weekend at The Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. Agnes, Ben, Bevan, James and yours truly spent the weekend manning the Kwartzlab booth, handing out hundreds of buttons and stickers, meeting a plethora of really interesting folks, and chilling with peeps from other makerspace booths such as Kansas City, PGH (Pittsburgh) and I3.
Thanks to those above who came out to man the booth! Special thanks to Agnes for the banner and fabric plants, Ben/Bevan/James for making stickers and buttons, Ben for the Kwartzlab passport stamp, Mark P for the TARDIS and glowing Kwartzlab sign, Chris B for the mechanical webcam eyes project, Paul W for the Bananaphone, Jeff S for the laser guitar and Brainiac component tester.
We won an Editor’s Choice ribbon! Woot! And Agnes won three for her booth, Agnes Makes! Woot^3!
Pictures are pending!
