DIYLILCNC Demo & Lecture at Detroit Maker Faire 2010's Make Stage

DIYLILCNC Demo & Lecture at Detroit Maker Faire 2010's Make Stage

If your organization would like to build a DIYLILCNC, the plans are free for the taking in our downloads section.  However, if you prefer to work with us directly, we’re happy to offer our services in person.

If you represent a small-scale group such as Dorkbot, we’ve got a great lecture about the DIYLILCNC that we can give for free.  If you throw in a few dollars for gas we won’t say no!

If you represent an institution (such as a museum, high school or university), consider hiring us to perform a workshop.  We’ll bring a full set of DIYLILCNC components, and build a functioning device, on site, with the help of your students.  We’re also happy to participate in critiques, additional lectures, or other programming depending on your situation.  Contact us for more information on fees, scheduling, etc.
