Check it out, you can see Crenn pop in and out of frame at several points as well as show off some of his awesome robots! Love the Rasberry Pi bot mate!

Check out the guy with the funny accent tell about his robot at ~11:00.
:P
If only air travel wasn't so expensive, I would love to rub shoulders with all of you. lol awesome video :)
It would be better if the robot actually did something in the video, sadly the battery did actually fall off and unplug itself. It's something I need to fix as it's not the first time it's happened.
OvRiDe, funny accent? At least I don't have a Steve Irwin accent!
billygoat333, rubbing shoulders occurs often in the hackerspace, whether we like it or not!
I also travelled home on the trains with Dave, it was a good night! Didn't get home until basically midnight!
That's an impressive workspace/facility, I still haven't found anything similar in my area. Not that I've actually put much serious effort into searching for one, sadly.
We also don't have those awesomely tasteless colourful Hawaii-linux shirts. Again, not that I've actually searched for one ... although I admittedly cannot make myself feel too sad about that.
I notice that today's hackerspace is something akin to yesterday's MIT worklabs ... all about microcontroller-fabbed fabbing fabbers, CNC-styled machinery making more CNC-style machinery, etc etc. Everytime I see stuff like that I just can't help but think of the guys at the machine shop using their lathes to manufacture more parts for more lathes, sort of a circular logic thing.
So what's wrong with the Steve Irwin accent, anyhow?
You can probably find a space near you here: http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/List_of_Hacker_Spaces
I don't have one of those Hawaii Linux shirts as it was part of LCA2013, but it was for volunteers only I believe.
Usually there is a sort of iteration process going on with making things, and the next generation is generally better than the last in some way. It's also a good way to learn how things work.
People generally expect you to have that accent. And have a degree of disappointment when you don't...
