Who and what the heck is Pocket Factory?
Bilal Ghalib and Alex Hornstein are traveling around the country for a month with a Prius-full of low-cost 3D printers, starting a business printing and selling things on these machines. Modern-day troubadours, moving from town to town with 3D moneymakers in their trunk, eliciting inspiration and fascination where they travel and making a living for themselves off their ideas and wits. They’re chronicling all the successes, failures and stories from running a design and production business using Maker 3D printers as their production machines. You can read about their exploits weekly on Make, and also on pocketfactory.org.
