8th Seattle Hardware Meetup @ FixturFab
Seattle’s hardware community is coming together again for an evening of connection, collaboration, and conversation around all things physical product design, prototyping, and manufacturing.
Whether you’re an engineer, industrial designer, machinist, or just passionate about building things — this is the place to meet others shaping the future of hardware in the Pacific Northwest.
We’ll be meeting up at Fremont Brewery where our gracious hosts have reserved an event space for us. Following our guest talks and Open Mic, folks are invited to meander over to FixturFab for an Open House.
