There will be another KiCAD and FreeCAD meetup tomorrow with Anool on Saturday, May 2nd, at:
TechDraw basics – I’ll demo using the FreeCAD TECHDRAW workbench to produce dimension drawings of KiCAD PCB.
Sometimes, it is useful to add this to project documentation.
Will try & answer questions too.
Join the Jitsi Meeting
Exciting news! Dorkbot PDX will be moving to cyberspace and everyone can now join in:
Part virtual hackathon, part virtual geek social, these virtual biweekly meetings are a time for you to virtually join others for insight, inspiration or just insanity.
Bring your virtual toys for others to see, or log on to see what others have been painstakingly chipping away at in their spare time.
Whether it’s code or chips, hacking of all sorts is encouraged. But we also like to hear your crazy ideas, so please come join us online and bring your willingness to share your brilliance.
p.s. This event is open to everyone, dork or robot. No ^H membership is required to attend. All are welcome. That means you!
We’re meeting on jit.si as well as mozilla hubs, link here: https://kik.to/HY

Hardware Happy Hour (3H) is a meetup for engineers, electronics hobbyists, and hardware hackers that takes place in many cities around the world.
With COVID-19 restrictions on in-person events, 3H organizers have setup a Discord server where we can continue to have virtual 3H meetups!
If you are near Berlin next Thursday, February 20th, then check out this social gathering of electronics enthusiasts:
Hardware Happy Hour (3H) Berlin
We will be returning to the Lovelite bar this time.
Please bring your latest project with you! Anything you’re working on, electrical, mechanical or software works! We want to see the stuff that you’re interested in!
Lovelite will open at 6pm and we will officially start at 7pm.

Follow Drew Fustini (@pdp7) for updates!
Have you ever created a badge? Are you currently working on a badge? You are invited as a guest of honor to Hackster’s BadgeLove! Meetup. We want to take an evening to appreciate the hardware heroes who do the often thankless and frequently futile task of creating PCB artwork, shitty add-ons, and PCB badges.
We are excited to toast the winners of last winter’s BadgeLove! contest on Hackster. Come in person, record a video or join via YouTube Live, and show us what you’ve built.
Join Chris Gammell, Andrew Sowa, Drew Fustini and many more for the next Hardware Happy Hour (3H) Chicago on Wednesday, February 20th:

The next Hardware Happy Hour (3H) Chicago is Tuesday, January 15:
Bring all of your holiday gadgets and gizmos! Did you build a blinky Christmas tree ornament? Did you get a new scope from Santa? Did you take apart some toys? Bring it all to the meetup!
We’re trying out a new location for the new year! Come have a pint, show off your latest project and get to know your fellow Chicago tinkerers.

This group is based upon the idea that you are interested in hanging out and discussing hardware. Please bring a piece of hardware to show off or talk about. Are you interested in hardware, but you haven’t built anything yet? Show off software you have built! Or come prepared to talk about the projects you want to build.
There are no organized talks, it’s literally a show and tell at a bar or restaurant. In case you missed it two paragraphs ago, bring hardware. Seriously, just bring anything to talk about 🙂
Here’s a list of meetups that may be of interest to those that are in New York for World Maker Faire week and weekend:
Join us on Thursday, September 20th for a special pre-Maker Faire Meetup! Hackaday MakeIt NYC is once again teaming up with our friends at Kickstarter, this time bringing you a night of awesome music hacks, snacks and more!
We’re heading East! Join MatterHackers, Ultimaker, and more community friends to kick off Maker Faire New York at Fat Cat Fab Lab for a discussion on different kinds of “Make” with some of your favorite Content Creators. Pizza, refreshments, and great conversation will be provided! All ages are allowed for this portion of the event.
Join the Hack Manhattan “night crew” for some early morning boardgames. In the city that never sleeps, night owls and insomniacs congregate to draw cards, toss dice, move pieces, calculate odds and bluff opponents.
To celebrate our 10 year anniversary and our love of cool hardware hacks, join us for a #BringAHack event in the Big Apple! Join BeagleBoard.org for a casual evening of drinks, snacks and hacks at the Leaf Bar the night before Maker Faire New York.
Where: Mikkeller Brewing NYC, 123-01 Roosevelt Ave, Flushing, NY 11368
It’s Saturday night at Maker Faire NY and Manhattan is…too darn far! So we’re hanging out at the only rooftop bar in Flushing with a gorgeous view of the city skyline.
MatterHackers, BuildTak, and Fillamentum invite you to a casual cocktail meetup just 10 minutes from Maker Faire. Bring your friends and “make” new ones (…see what we did there?) as we celebrate Maker Faire!
Look for our Drew Fustini in purple!
