Makers, mind-fire, and grassroots engineering in Detroit

"Wouldn't it be really cool to have a mind-controlled flamethrower?" Matt Oehrlein is a maker — he designs machines not only for a large company, but for himself. After finding himself at a new job in unfamiliar Michigan, he decides to join a "makerspace" called i3 Detroit where he and other local residents come together to build whatever machines they can imagine.
