For us, like so many others, Maker Fun was a definite Maker Faire highlight; the combination of craft and technology was deeply inspiring and it was clear that the mini makers were hugely engaged!

Our range of fun, educational kits is extending and now includes the WeevilEye, a Binary Blaster Kit, and a H2OhNo! ATtiny Dev Board / Water Alarm.

We were blown away by the work that York Hackspace had put into their SpaceHack Game, which they exhibited at the UK Maker Faire in Newcastle, April 2014. Find out more here!

Our new products this week include a 5V 2.5A Mains Wall Power Supply with UK, EU, US and AU Adaptors, a 9V PP3 Battery Clip Lead to 2.1mm DC Connector, a Resistor Kit and a Beginner Parts Kit.

Design & Make the Future 2014 was run by Teach Design and took place on Saturday 10th May at the National STEM Centre in York. The day was packed with a combination of keynotes, workshops, networking and exhibitions.
