2016-12-16 The Maker Manifesto

I guess that manifestos are supposed to be overly ambitious and hyperbole?

Holy Moly I'm not sure how it is that I only came across this Maker Manifesto tonight, but maybe it's for the better because if i had seen the tooling list on pages 23-26, may never had gotten started in waiting around forever trying to figure out how get all of the prescribed tooling - sheesh!
