EAT FOOD TALK SHOP

Please join us for a night of project sharing, summertime story swapping, and some CNC demonstrations!

It's time for our regular 2nd-Thursday-of-the-month open house / project salon / OMGBBQWTF called EatFoodTalkShop! We're going to get these going again from their brief hiatus due to moving. So count on a monthly show-and-tell for Makers! Bring a project, or a story, or just curiosity and questions.

Please drop by and help us eat food, drink libations, and share project stories. We'll be showing off our recently finished projects for Wikipedia and Bookrenter. Frank will strut his stuff as well with a few demos.

We'll have some food and drink, you bring some more and your friends! Kids welcome, but it is a shop and a party. Lots of sharp corners. And they might learn some interesting new words.

Please join us for our first open house at our new location. We've got lots to celebrate!

From finally finishing up our big move, to our great new fabrication studio & offices, to Jeffrey's passing his orals for his Architect license, to this fine hot summer that seems to finally have arrived... Boy we have so much to celebrate we're bursting at the seams!

So please drop by and help us eat food, drink libations, and share project stories. We'll be showing off our recently finished project: our new digs! Frank's got upgrades, our new office rocks, and the fabrication studio is all setup for fast production.

We'll have food and drink, you bring the friends! Kids welcome, but it is a shop and a party. Lots of sharp corners. And they might learn some interesting new words.

You can find us at our new digs:

Just a reminder that our big holiday party is tomorrow! Please come! Starts at 5 pm, goes 'till 10 pm. We'll be playing games, taking pictures, eating food, drinking drinks, and more!

See you soon!

Hey there!

Rub your hands together and put your jacket on. It's time to warm your soul at Because We Can!
We'll be cooking up some hot cider (with a nip of something special if you're good), and making little BWC keep sakes.

Come see what we're making! We're not even sure exactly what it will be! But most likely, you'll get to take one home.

Bring some BBQ, snacks or drinks to share.

We still have some small prototype pieces for sale, and we have a ton of Trees from our store available for sale!

So come on by, bring a friend, bring a project, buy a tree, drink some cider!

6:30PM - 10PM at the Because We Can Studio. http://www.becausewecan.org/

Hey all! It's time for another EAT FOOD TALK SHOP tonight. 2nd Thursday of the month. It's still at our shop, but will be hopping around town in no time.

It's kinda like a Dorkbot / Meetup / Maker Day / Pepakura but with BBQ & beer and a little more fabrication-focused. Bring something to share and something to show off (or at least the desire to talk to other fabricators). Bring your friends too! This time we'll be carving pumpkins. So bring a gourd of your choice and carve away! We'll be making hot dogs - so bring something to add to the mix... Goes from 6:30 PM to 9PM at The Because We Can headquarters. There's parking, a new grill (yay!), and old grill, a big fridge, a big robot, and plenty of room. We don't have a video projector or forklift (yet) so if you need one to show off what you brought then you'll need to bring your own. We hope you can make it!

Watch out for the giant fire snail that showed up last time!
