Despite only a few weeks in the planning, TC Maker's faire featured 16 exhibitors and attracted more than 500 visitors -- not bad for the hacker collective that didn't even have a space 2 months ago.

MAKE contributor and author Bill Gurstelle demonstrated some of his experiments with static electricity and experimental musician Tim Kaiser put on a show.

However, the hit of the show was the life-sized Operation game made by TC Maker members Jim Wygralak and Nick Lee, which consistently engaged both grown-ups and kids.
