Maker Faire Part 2.

After seeing the fire breathing cycle dragon thing, I saw that the guys were taking the steamroller for a spin.




I wandered off and found the largest paella pan that I've ever seen.


They were only using the small ones to actually cook the paella...


For some reason I felt like eating a cupcake when I saw this guy.


I found a couple of different flavours ...


And more importantly, how they work.


There was a very cool CNC wood router that was cutting face profiles out of MDF.


This guy passed me as I was wandering along the displays.


He was slow but steady.


There were lots of big funky bicycles around.






This one was very cool, with one huge wheel and two smaller wheels.




They had a circular angled track that you could ride the bikes around and above a certain speed climb up the track. Apparently it was a lot easier to go counter clockwise than clockwise and they didn't have an explanation of why.


Remember the mouse trap game ? There was a life size one on display.
