I have continued to chronicle my path to a working mini FabLab at home over at MakerHouseHolds.net (which is a pendant to MakerHouseHolds.eu, a site to start collecting material around making in the context of globally networked, resilient local communities.)

So head on over to read how Elmine and I put together the electronics for our laser cutter in “Bringing a Laser Cutter to Life: Phase One“.

The finished electronic components. Tried and tested.
