How'd They Make That?

The 5th Annual Maker Faire gets underway at the San Mateo County Event Center. Sometimes called "Burning Man for familes," the giant science fair/art expo draws creators and fans from around the bay area and US. This year's event was held on May 22 and 23 - and it's so huge, it takes two days to get through!
