OpenSpace on Arduino, soldering, and makerbots (possibly with practical demonstrations)

What is (bring mine)
  • soldering
    - flux
    - lead-free or notlead free
  • an Arduino
    Show it off. Microcontroller. It has its own dev language.
  • a makerbot? (I only wish that I had one of these)
    - prints plastic, can make shapes that modern manufacturing can only do in many steps
    - prototyping
    - ideally self-replicating
  • hackerspaces
    - there's one in pretty much every city, and usually several
    - PS1 in Chicago
    - Janga in Bangalore http://www.jaaga.in/bangalore-hackerspace
What would you do with one?
  • Everyone say an idea
And then we will discuss... I expect it to be over relatively quickly (especially considering that not that many people are signed up for it...)
