We went to the third North Bay Young Makers meeting in San Francisco this weekend. Andrew, Chelsea, and Alf learned the basics of coppersmithing from Alexis Turner, an amazing artist. Here is her website: http://www.lexiebecjewelry.com/leather.html. Working with the handsaw was pretty challenging. Art and Andrew also went to the session on 3D fabrication with Andrew Taylor of Autodesk.
Afterwards there was a "plussing" session where we told about our project. Chelsea and Alfia stayed at the table and told about our project. Art and Andrew walked around and looked at other projects.
After lunch we listened to speakers. There was Dale Dougherty who founded Maker Faire. Alexis Turner the jeweler, and Tom Lipton who makes stuff for Lawrence Berkeley Lab also spoke. It was interesting and inspiring.
