CNC Router Tips Podcast Episode 44Build Your Own Makerspace with Mike Heidrick. In the episode we talk with Mike Heidrick about why you should build your own makerspace. After trying unsuccessfully to work with local government to bring a makerspace to his community, Mike Heidrick decided to build his own makerspace. Aptly named the Mikeyspace, Mike built a 40’X64’X16’ polebarn with a 10’X24’ porch - two 14’X14’ overhead doors, 3 pedestrian doors, and 4 36”X48” double hung windows, and 5" thick concrete floor with radiant heat. The project has taken nearly 3 years to complete but features a full CNC machine shop, CNC woodworking shop, welding equipment and a drive in theater. And this is just the start.Bill Griggs contact info:Twitter: @BillGriggsWebsite: http://cncroutertips.comSHOW NOTES: http://cncroutertips.com/44Websites MentionedJoes CNC http://joescnc.comMaker Masters http://makermasters.comThe Makers Guide http://themakersguide.comHabitat For Humanity Restore http://www.habitat.org/restoresBloomingtonmike Youtube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/bloomingtonmike#CNC Router Tips https://www.facebook.com/groups/cncroutertips/Mach3 Software http://www.themakersguide.com/home/products/mach3CNC Starter Bit set http://cncroutertips.com/bitsVCarve Demo Video http://cncroutertips.com/demoVCarve Software http://themakersguide.com/vcarve8Triple Edge Finder http://themakersguide.comResources http://cncroutertips.com/resourcesHow to leave a review on iTunesGo to this page.https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/cnc-router-tips-podcast-spreaker/id1031116372?mt=2Click View in iTunes.Click on ratings and reviews in iTunes Click the Write a Review buttonLeave an honest rating.Then write a review Just a few words.
