Fab Lab Tulsa (MIT Fabrication Laboratory)
Be sure to watch the videos as it will make more sense. The second video made a bit more sense to me than the first
It is a fantastic opportunity for people to see their inventions come to life (and maybe make lots of money from their idea!)
Fab Lab Tulsa is a community center for innovation, entrepreneurship, and technological education. The community
workspace providing access to an array of computer-controlled
fabrication technology such as 3D Printers and Laser Cutters that can
be used to conceptualize, design, develop, and fabricate almost anything that YOU can imagine!
Fab Lab was originally developed by the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT). It has been deployed to over 100 different locations
on 5 different continents. Fab Lab Tulsa is the only one in the southern states!!!)
Sounds great for our kids and everyone in the area.
Orientation is free at 11:00 on Saturdays. (If you decide to use it you pay for time using the tools.)
In the Union Boundary (on page 27) is a story about it. GTR News - Union Boundary
Repurpose what we have into something else--the old trash cans we will
no longer be using can be for planting potatoes or a composter. Maybe
one has an idea to turn an old weedeater into a robot. There you can do
anything including making jewelry, learning to use soldering tools,
learn silk screening. The possibilities are endless.
Many have a great idea they never did anything with as they didn't know even how to start.
