That's really cool; they've even got articles on things like how Lego bricks are made (any FLL people around?).

Re: Make magazine

They sent me a thing about their magizine, but it was too much for me to subscribe to. So I trashed the postcard. It did look interesting but just not for the money for me.

It's not really a magazine but more a book. That's the reason why the subscription cost is so high.
