Maker | September 02, 2016 |
Happy Labor Day! I've been trying a bit of new format for the Startup Digest: 1 Featured Maker Product, 1 or 2 Featured Events, 1 or 2 articles, and a Video to watch as you sip your weekend coffee.
To that end, if you know of any new maker gear worth sharing or makery events, please let me know and I'll try to get them in the Digest.
As alway, thanks for reading and please share this digest with your maker friends.
