This was the first time Make Magazine & O’Reilly Media was doing the show in Austin, and they expected 25k attendees. Inventors, hobbyists, garage tinkerers, robots, and craft makers displayed all their stuff. Everything from art cars, to pedal powered fair rides, to a life size mouse trap, Pleo the robot pet, to ping pong ball shooting robots & more. We’ve posted all the Maker Faire videos on our site so you can get a sense of what the Maker Faire all about.
