GE Garages
I'll put more verbiage here eventually, but GE brought a maker-oriented road show called GE Garages to Rice. Since that's so close to the house, I took the family down there on Sunday. (As a side bonus: Bernie's Burger Bus was there, and it was free!)
The Makerbot Replicators are 3D printers - they print 3D objects using melted plastic. Extremely cool stuff. The blue tape was there because the printers were outside, and it was a very, very windy day.
The outfit was Bea's idea, since she knew we were going over to Rice.
Beatrix wanted to see me weld something, so the 2 of us went back on Monday. That will be another post...
