Fab Lab Boot Camp is January 10-23, 2009. The MIT Fab Lab in Lyngen Norway is hosting the Fab Boot Camp training sessions January 10- January 23, 2010. We are able to accommodate up to 15 participants for the training session. The Norway FabLab facility has accommodations on site. The cost of the training is $2,500 US for the two week session (excluding airfare). Unfortunately this year we are unable to provide funding assistance for travel but may be able to offer a limited number of waivers for the tuition. Please register with: Haakon@fablab.no and copy Jorgen@fablab.no as well as lass@cba.mit.edu

Non-profit organization update (11/09): Many of you know that FabFolk incorporated in January 2009. We have made it through the final round of questions for the US IRS to issue our 501(c) tax exemption status. We only have to submit our filing fee - we'll need to fundraise as our personal bank accounts are tapped out from incorporation fees. FabFolk's first regular officer's meeting is Monday Nov 16 at 6pm.

Coming soon! By popular demand, the Fab Folk will be offering one-button ordering for common fab project materials in kit form, shipped to you (nearly) anywhere in the world. See our Fab Kits Store for more information.
