Sadly, I was unable to attend this weekend's World Maker Faire.  You can find some pictures here:

    Hi Maggie,

     

    Sorry you didn't get to the faire, but then, neither did I.  However, thanks to your post, I could see the excitement in the kids who got their hands into tearing appart old electronics.  I think I saw a number of future engineers gleefully ripping things apart.  Reminds me of my younger days. image

     

    I will keep my eye out for future events, they look like a lot of fun and definitely creative.  There is no such thing as junk, there are only left over components that have yet to reach their full potential!

     

    Thanks

    DAB

    I thought the kids were great!  My boys tear apart stuff all the time.  I love it.  Of course, then I have a lot of "components that have yet to reach their full potential" laying around, waiting for just that.

     

    Maybe I'll get there next time.  They really are a lot of fun.
