Dublin Maker is Ireland’s biggest maker community showcase event. It gives a real opportunity for makers to excite and enthuse the general public about
the great making communities and their projects. This year it moves to Merrion Square to allow for even more making madness

The open call for this year’s Dublin Maker is now open to all inventors, makers, hackers and creators. Whether you have taken part before or still tinkering on something crafty, you can apply for a place at our biggest Dublin Maker yet.

OPEN CALL

Tog is proud to be a supporting organisations again this year.  We have been involved in the running of the Dublin Maker since its first year, now almost 5 years ago. We see the event as the highlight of the maker calendar in Ireland.

Bridge Building Results

We had out 4th annual bridge building sessions for engineers week last weekend. With 80 tickets sold we had a fun packed day.  The winner bridge held an impressive 28KG before breaking. They are pictured below.

We had a great talk from Cahill Fergal, which lead to some many different bridge designs. Check out our gallery for all the snaps from the day. -> Gallery.

As with every year the best part of the day is the destruction. The scouts really got behind the sprint of the day.

Finally we would like to thank Engineers Ireland for the financial support to make this event possible and the volunteers from the Young Engineers Society
