The Maker Movement represents a dramatic shift towards the democratization of design, engineering, education, jobs and manufacturing. Advancements in new technologies such as desktop 3d printing and CNC machining are now putting powerful tools that were once only available to large institutions like NASA in the hands of millions of creators worldwide. This rapid pace of disruption is creating a paradigm shift like no other in history, opening up many new opportunities for independent makers and entrepreneurs that were once unimaginable.The Maker's Field Guide has been written as the first and only resource of its kind - demystifying almost every single tool, technology, and technique involved in the process of building professional quality prototypes for use in design, engineering, product development, special effects, or Kickstarter campaigns.
