About Us
Orlando's newest Makerspace is open in South Orlando! We are located at 8600 Commodity Cir #158, Orlando, FL 32819. Google Directions to MakerFX.
MakerFX Makerspace is a program of The Maker Effect Foundation. The Maker Effect foundation also produces Maker Faire Orlando.
This wiki is a knowledge base for the resources and tools a MakerFX. MakerFX members have 24 hour 7 days per week access to an amazing and growing list of resources and tools.
This wiki needs your help. If you can spend a little time documenting some part of what we do, we can help you get setup and able to edit. Every little bit helps! Pop into the #mfx-wiki channel on slack, or ask Ian, Jeff, Joe or Neil, to help you get an account.
