About

Maker's Edge is a membership-based, DIY makerspace and prototyping studio set to open August 1, 2014. We believe in the mission of making and want to give tool, class and mentor access to the central Texas community of students, tinkerers and entrepreneurs. We imagine a space where thinking and doing are connected and encouraged.

Our community currently has no makerspace shops, yet we have a large network of schools, tech companies and artisans that would greatly benefit from the cooperative experience of creating in a makerspace. The first step is to procure a 3D printer. This one tool can generate excitement and clearly communicate the idea of a makerspace to Waco, and help us create the tools and swag as we seek corporate sponsorships and engage potential members. Also, we hope to have summer youth classes to help ignite the makerspace movement as we move towards our August 1st opening.
