COMMUNITY : FORUMS : EVENTS

The Vancouver Make Faire 2012 was this past weekend. Those that could make it out were rewarded with seeing a 2-person bike spider, drawing robots, a whole village of 3D printers, a fire-burping machine controlled by a Fisher Price keyboard, and of course the Instructables booth where we were giving away stickers, patches and pins to all our fans. 

Instructables members did not dissappoint, I met =D, Kev_MacD and fastermiles who came by the booth and talked about their passions. Also at the Faire:

• We were booth-neighbours with diyified, who showcased her DIY Toys
• I had ChrysN and nick2334 help me staff the Instructables booth and greet so many makers (thanks guys!)
• alejandroerickson had a "zest for mathematics" booth with a tensegrity workshop (it was packed)
• avid bike-hacker snotty shared a few of his custom rides (one of them had a sweet sound setup)
• I learned just how difficult it is to tie Chinese knots at arghc's booth
• aggrav8d had his $100 mural drawing robot in full effect (and it was awesome)

Thanks to everyone who came out and stopped by our booth, it was a lot of fun meeting everyone. Below are a few pictures I took of the event, please feel free to share your own pictures of the Vancouver Maker Faire in the comments below.
