Hi Everyone!

My name is Jamie and my husband, Nathaniel, and I just sign up for Makerspace!!
We had our first tour last Thursday and did a resin class on Saturday.

We are SOOOO excited to be part of this space and want to eventually try just about everything! BUT…our current project is going to be a resin “river” table…we are obviously going to start with a few smaller things to learn our way around.

Any help with this or anyone who just wants to say hi - we are super friendly and would LOVE to meet you whether you are into resin or not! We are from Australia and New Zealand - pretty cool story how we ended up here in Dallas. We love to travel, make friends, eat good food and be CREATIVE!!

See ya around!

Hi and welcome!
One of the first things you have to learn is that posts have to be at least 20 characters and that’s why I’m writing this second sentence.

I met Jamie and Nathaniel on Saturday.
They’ll be prototyping their resin river table in a piece suitable for inclusion in the 10x10 show.
What a way to jump into DMS culture!

Welcome aboard and Happy Making!

Welcome to the Land Upover! Welcome to Makerspace. I think the idea of starting of with a 10" x 10" (25.4cm x 25.4cm in non-moon walker units) is an awesome idea for setting started.

Look forward to seeing you.
