Ladyada's Workshop!

Here's Ladyada and Mosfet at the Adafruit workshop. They work on making electronics for young people who might want to be designers, scientists and engineers! Adafruit was founded in 2005 by MIT engineer Limor "Ladyada" Fried. Her goal was to create the best place for learning electronics and making the best designed products for makers of all ages and skill levels.

This is a pick-and-place machine. It uses cameras to pick up super-tiny parts to make the circuit boards you'd find in computers, cell phones, TVs and pretty much anything electronic!

This is a laser cutter. It can cut plastic, etch wood and help make many of the enclosures for electronic projects.

This is Ladyada's desk, she uses a computer, a soldering iron, microscope and other tools to design electronics!
