| Meeting #1 Wednesday, April 30, 2008
7:00 - 9:00 p.m.
Free Pizza and Soda !! (prizes too) (:-)
If you like to use your hands (and your brain) to make stuff come down tomorrow night.
The first NYC Make group was set up 5 months ago in downtown Brooklyn and is a great success. See their website here.
However, if you don't live close by, it can be a little difficult to get there. Soooo..... for the rest of us (here in Queens, but also Bronx, Brooklyn, Nassau, etc), we are starting a second group that's easy to get to and has easy parking.
So whether you like making models, electronics, silkscreening, pottery or pretty much anything else that gets put together using skill and imagination, we want to meet you. More details about Make and MakeNYC2 at the links below:

Pictures from our first Make-N-Take last Saturday
|
Saturdays at 10 am
Make-n-Take kits let you have fun building a 1/24 scale model car or plane. No glue is required and we will provide you with all the tools you need. Cost is only $3 per model. Parents are encouraged to be present during the half-hour or so required to complete the model.
|
|
Make 'n Take can also be used by Boy Scout troops, schools, for birthday parties or other group activities. By using a simple SnapTite kit that is easy to assemble, kids get interested in the hobby without being overwhelmed with a more complicated model that requires paint and glue.
Parents tell us they love the interactivity and fun modeling provide while getting their children away from video games. Make 'n Take helps children and adults of all ages rediscover the fun of building a precision-engineered model.
