Thursday night – Engineerin’

Just back from giving another talk at UVM. This one was for Invent Vermont . a collection of independant inventors. dedicated to promoting innovation in our state. My freinds Jerome and Ben organized the even tonight. The idea was to show the members the UVM Fablab and the UVM Instrumentation and Modeling Facility.  Here were about 18 of us this evening. We met in Perkins hall that has this amusing sign.. Engineerin’ .. love it !.

after my talk we wandered over to the fablab. Jeff gave a demo of the printer and laser…

THen one of their members, Tom did a cool demo of silicon modl making. Gotta get some of this glop.

It was another fine evening of geekspeak. I hope these guys will join us in the broader maker community.. It really is an amazing about of activity on this stuff these days. A week doesn’t go by now without some sort of maker activity.. I just love it !

Speaking of love…. Diane and I were standing in the bathroom this mornign. as I brushed my teeth.. this HUGE spider dropped from the cieling between us.. it as over 2 inches across. it was AWESOME !

 

ok.. all for now.. more tomorrow…

nite all, nite sam
