We had a DIYbio Cambridge Boston Sommerville meetup this past weekend to get familiar with a nice new hackspace, The Sprouts, to come up with a project for the next few months, and to move and set up equipment in the current space.
The great folks at The Sprouts actually want a wet-space for DIYbiology. They gave us some space and they even had some equipment. We added to that the equipment Mac picked up from a failed biotech.
The whole moving, setting-up thing was quick. We had Kay, Mac, Manuel, Paul, Charles, Jason, and I there, so the "many hands" made the work lighter.
I was happy to see things happening, space being set up, projects being set. Of the things on my to-do list, a few have been now knocked off, allowing me to join existing set-ups.
I took some video of what we were up to.
One last thing: I am so pleased with The Sprouts. They only opened in August, but show great promise. I hope that our group can be part of their growth and give back as even more than they have already so generously given us.
Awesome video! Thanks so much for capturing and cutting together that awesome video, Charlie! Happy Thanksgiving.
