Maker Faire San Mateo 2008

Normal people have lots of fun family activities like zoos, aquariums, state fairs, etc.

Well us nerds need family activities too! So Make magazine puts on a big fair each year where us geeks can have a massive show-and-tell!

This fair has everything from weaving looms to crazy art cars to robots to giant Tesla coils.

We spent all day last Sunday there. Laura took some fabulous pictures. Enjoy!

Re: disco ball

The disco ball contraption is one of several robots made from power tools.

You probably don't want to be close to this thing when it's running :-)

Cool!

I like the contraption with the Ryobi saw and a disco ball. I have no idea what it is, but it's inventive for sure. :)
