makersCafe Opens in London

[Brian_Krassenstein]

We have actually seen a couple new cafes open up which catered to the 3D printing and the 'Makers' crowd. It seems like a trending business venture On Thursday such a cafe had its Grand Opening in east London, called makersCAFE. They serve coffee and then charge a minutely rate for use of their machines. The founder of the cafe expects to have all sorts of social gatherings as well, including guest speakers, parties, and little workshops. More details on this new cafe can be found here: http://3dprint.com/12741/makerscafe-london

Let us know if you make a visit.

No photos of the interior or the models of machines they have? Suspicious. The usage prices are way high, esp. for 3D printing.

That is a very good idea for letting more people know the 3D printing. But I have two questions concerned:

1. How to charge the people who use the printer- only $1.66 US dollars? Will people need to pay who try the machine but not printing out their prototype?

2. How to treat those people who have no knowledge on 3D printing? There will be one more extra workers pointed to guild customers?

Chatting 3D printers with friends or investor and taking cafa is the way I really love!
