Living in the Future, or, HackLab Buys a Cupcake
by Leigh Honeywell on Sep.17, 2009, under Uncategorized
On September 1st, I sent an email to the HackLab discussion list asking for folks to commit. Less than 24 hours later, members and non-members alike stepped up and pledged $700 in addition to my initial commitment of $200. Our MakerBot Batch 7 CupCake CNC will ship in early October, hopefully in time for MiniSoOnCon!
3D printing is so amazing. This is the MITS Altair of a DIY revolution whose shape I’m not at all certain of. I couldn’t be more exited to see what the hacklabbers make and how we improve the machine, too.
In alphabetical order, the donors were:
3ric Johanson

Welcome to the future, folks.
