Near Chicago? Come 3D print, laser cut & CNC for FREE until Oct-20

fustini

I visited the GE Garage in downtown Chicago for my 3rd time on Tuesday.  It's an amazing temporary TechShop with 3D printers, a laser cutter, CNC mills and even injection molding!  I highly recommend visiting if you are in the region before it closes October 20th:

    GE has partnered with Chicago Ideas Week to bring the future of fabrication technologies to a space where the community can walk in off the street and work with some amazing hardware like CNC mills, laser cutters and 3D printers. The group is also giving classes at select times on using the equipment and general electrics.
