Re: Who's going to a Barnes and Noble's Mini-Maker Faire?
Hello all,

I am happy to report that in Holland Michigan our mini maker faire was amazing. I was sitting at a table where we were showing kids how to solder a circuit board. We had two solder stations set up and we had people waiting in line from the time I got there until after I left. I think we ended up with close to 150 circuit boards complete from Friday to Sunday.

I was also very surprised to see that the girls really took the show for wanting to sit down and solder. I bet it was 2 to 1 girl to boy for the three hours that I was there. I never got one break and I would gladly do it again.

Tim
