A mention about our work on the culture blog over at Spacecraft Clothing.
A time lapse with Make.Shift Project and Mac and Mac Electric on how to build a bicycle power generator.
Meg is busy cooking up a hideous beast of a parade float for the St. Patty’s Day parade on Saturday. Come watch the parade starting at noon on Cornwall Ave.!
Thanks to Katie, Audra, and of course the marvelous Scott Rickey for making us some awesome buttons! Two fer $1!
We’d like to thank our friends at Kulshan Cycles for donating a gift certificate to our volunteer electrician JD Martin. We at Make.Shift are suckers for bicycles, and we really wanted to show JD how much we appreciate his hard work on our Power Wheel bike generator.
We’d also like to thank Boundary Bay Brewery & Bistro for donating a growler of their fine IPA to volunteer electrician Matthew Renick, whose help has also been instrumental in getting the Power Wheel up and running!.
Thanks!
