All things Maker board

I Am a Maker

I AM A MAKER

with my own two hands I forge the future

from my imagining

my work, my sweat with these tools

i can build worlds here

i put wire and foam transistor and plastic rubber

metal and wood together to make something new

what does it do where will this take us new places

new worlds

all from my workshop
