Personally the most interesting question I haven’t seen asked is how he searched for cheap properties.
Just before I closed on the warehouse, I reached out to the Megabots people to see if they wanted to move Megabots here, but didn't get a reply. The overhead cranes and large open interior spaces give opportunities not available anywhere else.
I literally had living spaces for artist and entrepreneurs on my original proposal, and I was hoping that it would become a destination makerspace where big names could come and access the amazing workshop I was planning to set up.
I was also planning to build a permanent robot combat arena here too, kind of like what they built in Norwalk.
