Ribbon Cutting Rocket

Submitted by Make Haven on

We are having our relaunch monday and we want the mayor to have something better than a regular ribbon cutting to kick it off.

One idea is to build a simple air powered rocket. We could decorate it with MakeHaven bling and fly it into a tower of cans or something? 

There are some great plans out there but they would take some work (for example:http://blog.makezine.com/projects/make-compressed-air-rockets-kit/)

Now that you have created your bags we will build our board. This will introduce you to basic construction with wood. 

Note: Only members qualifiied to use woodworking tools may use the saws. 

 

Material cost plus fee for non members.  More details to come.

MakeHaven Relaunch Public Event

Come celebrate the new and improved MakeHaven

Since our founding in early 2012 we have been working to create a New Haven makerspace for artists, engineers, hobbyists and entrepreneurs to come together and make things. For the space to be successful we needed to build a community of members and build the infrastructure to support their work.
