What Are You Working on What Do You Need?
Back by popular demand, we'll be expanding this section of DIY DAYS. Those attending DIY DAYS will be able to do a 60 second presentation. Interested parties will be able to sign up on the day. Please note that it's on a first come first serve basis. The only thing that we ask - please keep it to projects you're working on. No company sales pitches.
