The Makerspace Workbench: Tools, Technologies, and Techniques for Making

Create a dynamic space for designing and building DIY electronic hardware, programming, and manufacturing projects. With this illustrated guide, you€ll learn the benefits of having a Makerspace€"a shared space with a set of shared tools€"that attracts fellow makers and gives you more resources to work with. You€ll find clear explanations of the tools, software, materials, and layout you need to get started€"everything from basic electronics to rapid prototyping technology and inexpensive 3D printers.

A Makerspace is the perfect solution for many makers today. While you can get a lot done in a fully-decked out shop, you€ll always have trouble making space for the next great tool you need. And the one thing you really miss out on in a personal shop is the collaboration with other makers. A Makerspace provides you with the best of both worlds.

Perfect for any maker, educator, or community, this book shows you how to organize your environment to provide a safe and fun workflow, and demonstrates how you can use that space to educate others.
