Yep you heard right, Vectric and Design and Make will be a the Bay Area Maker Faire.  If you use Vectric software or Design And Make CNC Projects to help you "make",  just interested in what they are all about or have a question for the team you should stop by.  You just never know what new things they might be showing off or demoing that just might help make your "maker" dreams come true!
