Chattanooga had it's first Maker Faire, and I'd say it was a heck of a 1st event. Robots, Arduino's 3d printers.. you know the stuff.

But the real fun was being part of a team that made a very Burning Man-esque "sculpture".. Click on the image to see video's and a couple more stills.

Best part of the build experience: Besides the people, playing with a top of the line welder is a lot of fun.
