Hi, Are any of you guys going to the Maker Faire in California next month? I'll be there! Mike

Mike, I'll be there. Samantha

Mike · Answer

Great. I love that show. Lots of fun for the whole family!

sfoy · Answer

Mike, Are you participating? Have you started an EZ-B project? S

Mike · Answer

Not participating. I started an EZ-B project 3 weeks ago. I am building a Wild Thumper 4WD Chassis as a basic platform for an autonomous vehicle. I try to spend 2-3 hours a week working on it, so it is coming along slowly. :-)

sfoy · Answer

Mike, I'm on my second robot and I started it last May-June. Things have changed. I'm scrapping my base and redesigning it. It's a slow process but it'll be fun. Name TBD That's my current guy. But a very slow process.

cyberdude · Answer

Been out of touch lately. I'll be there at least one day. Not sure if I should bring my wall-e. I haven't touched him in awhile.

DJ Sures · Answer

We should arrange to all meet. Either there or somewhere near. We won't have a booth this year but we will be there

Mike · Answer

Cool! There is a pretty good British Pub about 100 yards from the entrance to the Expo Center. That would work :-)

DJ Sures · Answer

Me? Beer? What, am I Canadian or something? That's a good idea! We haven't decided which day we will attending yet... Most likely the first day.

cyberdude · Answer

Cool. I know that bar. Just over the tracks. On 25th. The swingin' door?

Mike · Answer

Yes. The Swinging Door on 25th. Are you local cyberdude?

cyberdude · Answer

Yup. Foster city.

sfoy · Answer

I would love to come by I don't think I could afford the travel to both maker fair.

cyberdude · Answer

Someone set a time for the meet-up! DJ, you have the greatest restrictions, so may I suggest you pick a time? The bat is literally half a block from the front entrance to the expo center, right over the tracks, on the left ; )

DJ Sures · Answer

Let's meet on Saturday. I will presenting twice that day. I know one time is 1:30 PM in the Maker Shed. I am unsure about the second time. I will post soon as I hear back

Mike · Answer

Great! I am free all day on that Saturday. I plan on getting to the Faire about 30 minutes before it starts. So around 9:30am. I'll have my wife and two kids with me. I will hang out most of the day. I only live a mile away from the fair grounds, so it is very convenient for me.
