Join #MWF2014 and see a 3D printer in action

In the Sala D’Arme of Palazzo Vecchio (Demonstration Hall) throughout the days of Feb 19 & 20 there will be a “Makers Corner” powered by MakeTank, with a 3D printer in action and an exhibition dedicated to digital technologies and how they may be used in a museums context.

Members of the MakeTank community as well as architects from Studio MP Architettura e Design will be on hand to show you how Maker technologies and mindset might be implemented in your museum.

MakeTank is a marketplace where people who combine design and artisanship with digital fabrication and open hardware techniques can list and sell their work.
