If TechShop is like a gym for makers, these are some great workouts to flex those DIY muscles. These projects were built using tools available at TechShop: laser cutters, sandblasters, sewing machines, drill presses, and CNC vinyl cutters, and all sorts of other specialty tools that are generally out of the hobbyist's price range. By making one of these projects, you can experience the joys of vector graphics and sandblasting and cutting things on printers with laser beams attached to their heads. All in one convenient location: at TechShop.
