<description>MAKE Magazine:- <![CDATA[Turns out, a woodshop class isn't the best place to chat - noisy saws and vents, coupled with a constant vigilance over not losing a thumb. I was glad to see Travis again on Wednesday morning, with a window of relative quiet in the shop, and to hear more about how his journey was going.]]></description>

<description>MAKE Magazine:- <![CDATA[Additive rapid prototyping in plastic materials is becoming quite accessible to home and hobby users. If you&#8217;re a hobbyist on a typical budget wanting to rapid prototype in metal, however, you&#8217;re limited to subtractive methods, i.e. CNC machine tools like mills and lathes, and even those are not exactly &#8220;cheap.&#8221; Professional 3D printing services like [...]]]></description>

<description>MAKE Magazine:- <![CDATA[It used to be that having your own quadrotor drone was cutting edge. Now that the average joe can pick one up at their local mall for a couple hundred bucks means that you've got to step your game up if you don't want to be seen as pedestrian. That's why today's aspiring UAV enthusiasts are working with swarms. Not just any swarms either, but swarms of nano-quadrotors. These days, budget conscious drone makers are going small to cut costs and shed ounces.]]></description>

<description>MAKE Magazine:- <![CDATA[You've likely heard about shape-memory alloys (SMAs), metals that change shape when heated to an  activation temperature.  When cool, they are malleable and can be shaped like a typical metal.  However, when heated to activation, they return  to their preset shape.  At the atomic level, the crystalline structure  of an SMA changes with heat from one regular structure to another.]]></description>

<description>MAKE Magazine:- <![CDATA[It&#8217;s a simplistic question, possibly even naive. Put it to a chemical engineer or a materials scientist, and she or he will almost certainly not come back with a single answer, but with (at least) two questions: What do you mean by &#8220;plastic?&#8221; Do thermosetting materials like epoxy count? What about polymers that are reinforced [...]]]></description>
