We just got back from Maker Faire, and it was amazing! We encourage every new employee to come to a show like Maker Faire so they can meet all of the incredible people who make what we do possible. This time we had eleven teal shirts in attendance and I heard, nonstop, how incredible it was to meet everyone.
And now, a random chronological dump of pictures from my phone.
When we first got the Makerfaire Glowforge units online:
Thanks for the pictures, creative shot from the lid camera!
Must be an exhaustive process, packing everything/transporting the works to, from the airport to the exhibition - setup, testing before the two day show… on your feet all day both days - then tear down and repack. Home stretch, move the circus back, unpack and setup again.
Congratulations, You guys made it look easy. Now go back to work to get a break. Draw a free breath and celebrate a job well done!
Thank you all for taking the time to show off the Glowforge. It was great to finally see it in action. I made a short video of it engraving the parrot my mom drew.
I was surprised by how enthusiastic she was about it. It helps that the Glowforge is much more accessible (especially for low-tech people like my mom) than something like a 3D printer. We were both impressed with the various examples of Glowforge made things they had at the booth.
