Summer of Extreme Design-Build 2020

3 Tracks

There will be 3 tracks of related learning, but with different goals:

• Enterprise track - for individuals roaring to set up their own microfactory to begin producing in their own communities. You will be equipped with a skill set to produce 3D printers, CNC torch tables, plastic recycling equipment, cordless drills, 3D printing filament, and brushless electric motors.
• Student track - if you are in college and are interested in diversifying your skill set into open source fab labs for material production of appropriate technology - this is for you.
• Teacher track - if you are interested in teaching the Open Source Microfactory STEAM Camp, this track is for you.
