Hacking @ Electric Picnic

We had the pleasure of being invited to form a temporary hackerspace at the Electric Picnic music & arts festival. We set up our hackerspace with the help of members from TOG, Milk labs and 091 labs in the Mindflied area of the Picnic. We made our home in the Ingition Stage sharing the tent with the Science Gallery. Over the weekend we had a host of interesting people dropping by with over 200 people learning to solder.

A4 Stand

Working on some plexy glass today taking the plexy and putting on side of bench you are able to heat up the side of it and then press down on it with piece of wood. This is shown in images below. What I did was took a piece of red plexy bigger than A4 and then measuring in few cm on each side bending over making sides. Then to fill in back and bottom just cut piece of see threw plexy and glued with super glue.
