San Mateo Fairgrounds are buzzing tonight with the preparations for the Bay Area Maker Faire. Here’s a behind-the-scenes peek at the setup and festivities, including booths from some of our favorite sites, interesting vehicles and creatures on display, and one exceptionally large batch of paella.
More photos below the fold.




















Thanks for the sneak peek! I’ll be there on Sunday, is there some kind of map to tell where your booth is?
Looking at the overview map at http://cdn.oreilly.com/make/makerfaire/bayarea/2011/mfba11-insert.pdf
I am guessing you’d be in the Expo Hall, near the Electronics / Arduino area (?)
Is it true there’s no Internet available at Maker Faire?
Great to meet you in person Ian! It’s stunning to realize this is only your hobby, you are certainly productive!
