I was dissapointed to find that this site was not about resources for "making", as in Maker Movement. I was expecting a good library of things like "How to make an armchair", "How to build your own 3d printer".

Not free, but the most recent Humble Books Bundle has a bunch of stuff targeted to the Maker crowd:

Yes, the term maker is quiet broad these days. There's no reason I can't expand it to the different types of makers I guess. Thanks for the feedback.

In 2009 how was the term used by pg?
