Makespace

Makespace

Makespace is a community workshop in Cambridge, UK, for people to come meet, learn and building (almost) anything.

It is currently being bootstrapped by its "founders" to be an industrial/warehouse building in the city, containing:

* A FabLab including a 2D laser cutter, 3D printer, CNC Router, Soldering stations, etc
* A meeting and training area including a projector, chairs, etc
* The surroundings to meet, work, build, socialise and do amazing things
* Flexible access control

And as a community resource, it'll bring together a network of enthusiasts and innovators, the prototyping industry, consultants, businesses and educational communities in a mutually beneficial way

It is aiming to reach people from all across the East of England, using Cambridge as the initial hub.
