Aran Finishes Prusa i3 Build!
Aran apparently didn’t read the CHS guide for successful procrastination. He didn’t even need a gummy bear to get him through the dark times! I believe he was able to put it together in around 9 hours.
Aran and Christoffer Start Prusa i3 MK3S Build
Good start!
Udita Still Making on West Coast
Months ago, at the Cambridge Hackspace, Udita made custom-fit shelving for her apartment. There must be some “Murphy’s” law for making shelving for a closet, because next thing we know she’s taking a job on the West Coast. She generously donated her tools to the CHS. THANK YOU UDITA!!! Here they are pictured
And here is the latest project she did on the West Coast. She says she misses us and I hope that new project trips “Murphy’s” law again and brings her back! Her tools will be waiting!

Mankoti E180 3D Printer Tuning
Last night Kurt tried out the Mankoti e180 3d printer. This was from his email:
Photo Fun in Photo Space
A friend of mine, Emily, is a yoga instructor. I’m helping her get some images for her Instagram account and she’s helping me get the studio set up.
This was the first shoot. The light in the upstairs studio is simply amazing. When Omar first showed Ed and I the space I knew we wanted it. It has not disappointed.
Here are some images from the 2nd session
She also allowed me to test a special defocus control lens from Nikon, the 105mm/f2 DF.
$275 Accessory or DIY in 1 Hour on Laser Cutter?
After some frustrated Googling for a cheap tablet holder I built my own. Becoming competent at Inkscape and the laser-cutter served me well.
Harnek’s Makerfleet
A first-glimpse of Harnek’s Makerfleet “farm” of 3d printers. Very exciting!
Richard’s Toolpass Install at CIC/Boston
Thanks to CHS member, DC Denison, laying the groundwork with CIC and District Hall, Richard’s Toolpass is going out in the wild. The above video shows him installing it at the CIC Cafe at 50 Milk Street in Boston.
Everyone in the maker space in New England works together!
DC, Richard and Ed have represented CHS at a few events at CIC and District Hall.
If you are reading this, and have any interest in making things, there are many places and events throughout the city to get you started. Everyone is welcome! No project or idea is too small or too crazy! Indeed, some people don’t view themselves as makers at all, they just want to build bookshelves for their bedroom closet.
All are welcome!
And next time you’re at the CIC Cafe in Boston, check out Richard’s Toolpass next to their laser cutter.
