Anyone going / displaying at Maker Faire in San Mateo?

I will be there with a non-car display, pending acceptance.

If you like Myth Busters, BattleBots, welding, flame throwers, sculpture/art, building motor vehicles (sure), hi-tech stuff, chemicals, electricity, machinery, music and food - you gotta go!

So, yeah, Factory Five builders are "Makers"!

This is a great family event - get the kids out of the house, and they will have a great time!

I'm going to go on the 19th. It would be a great place to show a factory five car too.

Everyone needs to go to this event! It's like the Exploratorium on crack.

Sadly, I am not able to go to this event, even though I gathered a team and will have a booth there. My team is Maker 2707 - "Not Your Grandpa's Ham Radio 2." On display will be cutting-edge technology that ham radio people are playing with today - it's nothing like what you think. . . ..

Got to go next year.

Wouldn't it be great if Dave and Factory Five Racing pulled in with their "big truck" with demo vehicles!
