Making It Through 2020

Submitted by Kate Cebik on Wed, 12/02/2020 - 5:40pm
2020, it’s been a year, right? There have been serious hardships for many people. I don’t in any way discount the very real and difficult losses felt but so many. But also, it feels remiss to not acknowledge the examples of resilience, kindness, and bravery that this year provided. And, I’ll admit, some good news is needed. So allow me to highlight some of the positive moments to come out of MakeHaven this year.

Die bending jig

Submitted by Tony Soares on Mon, 11/16/2020 - 4:47pm

To bend steel rule/flat bar/strip into complicated shapes difficult or impossible to make by other means (e.g., using shear-brake-roll machine). Makes cutting and debossing dies, e.g., to cut and stamp patterns in sheet metal, leather, paper, and other materials, on an arbor press.

Triangle Desk Lamp With Interchangeable Matboard Shade

Submitted by Ethan Rodriguez... on Sun, 11/15/2020 - 10:33pm

This is a cute desk/bedside lamp with an optional laser engraved shade made using a stippling type pattern. It's extremely inexpensive and fairly quick to fabricate. It makes a great gift, especially due to its interchangeable press-fit shade: you can give the base along with one shade as a gift, and then add to it by gifting new shades for other occasions. Depending on the wood/finish and the bulb brightness you choose, it can also look pretty nice without a shade.

Photo Darkroom

Submitted by Joshua Kanter on Sun, 11/15/2020 - 4:19pm

Analog photography is totally rad and magical! Watching a print develop before your eyes never gets old. Let's have a space in Makehaven that affords members the ability to process their own black and white or color film and make prints using real photographic chemistry!

Things we'd need:

Enlargers
Safe lights
Easels
Trays
Tongs
Development tanks
Measuring vials
Chemistry
Paper
Running water
