We are delighted to be invited to this year’s Electric Picnic, taking place this weekend. The new and improved Bubble Bird House will be spreading bubbles all over the Midfield area.
Since the Dublin Mini Maker Faire, we have replaced the fans of the bird house with new more powerful ones. This should help the bubbles blow even further around the site. It turns out that bubble mixture and motors don’t mix . We had to replace all the motors due to corrosion. But never mind all that, with all the replacement parts now in place version 2.6 is better than ever.
To find us, look for the Science Gallery tent ( our hosts) in the Mindfield area. Map Here
Our projects have been featured on many websites , newspapers and tv over the past few days. This is all in honor of the upcoming Dublin Mini Maker Faire. Our Buzzer Gamer featured on Silicon Republic. The giant ARduino Started kit was showcased on Makezine. Our newest created the bubble bird house was expertly demoed by kids on the RTE news.
If you want to see these and out drop down to the Dublin Mini Maker Faire on Saturday 27th July.
We are very proud to be a supporting organization of this year’s Dublin Mini Maker Faire. We will have a stand at faire and our famous Learn to Solder area. In order to finish our projects and give other makers a chance to finish theirs we will be open every day to the public in the lead up to the faire . Opening hours after the fold. Drop by and say hello.
