At this month's Open MAKE: Tools event, visitors were invited to explore their own creativity with our four Featured Makers from around the Bay Area, who shared their art, ingenuity, and techniques.

 

Guests made needle-felted creatures with Moxie, created three-dimensional shapes by sewing sheets of fabric together with Judy Castro, fused plastic with clothes irons, used sewing needles and conductive thread to make circuits embedded in bracelets and badges, and used motors and other tools to take Light Painting to a whole new level.

A worker uses a tool to tighten bolts that hold the tie plates (to which the rails are clipped) to wooden track ties on the Hubbard St. Curve on Saturday, March 9, 2013.

 

Drawing is a thinking tool. When your X grade teacher Mrs. Y told you couldn't draw Z, you stopped drawing. Start again.

This is the Tool Cake that I made for my husband's birthday today. It is a Red Velvet Cake with milk chocolate ganache filling. My 5 year old son insisted that I make tools to go on the top of the cake, I was planning to do a plain madhatter type cake!! The tools are all made out of modelling paste.

I have always been in awe of power tools. I was photographing these to sell... but really they are Art.

At the family business, Seasoft Scuba, we make mostly soft goods but need tools to build displays, storage, maintain machinery etc.

Father and sons tool boxes, just like in the old days side by side.

This is a one and on-half week assignment (to get us back to Sunday due dates). The goal is to celebrate tools. Tools and their use are arguably the basis of life as we know it. Almost every object in our lives is a tool; everything from a hammer or kitchen knife to a camera, computer or bulldozer. For this assignment, pretty much everything from a still life of a hammer or knife to a dump truck or the space shuttle is acceptable. Tools in use are fine and in context great; but the tool must be prominent and obvious. As always, wall grade art is what we strive for.

 

I'm hoping that you will pick a tool(s) that makes an obvious difference in your life or else which portrays a concept that is important to you. If you are a carpenter, hammers, saws and such are important. If you are a cook, knives, pots, stoves, etc. are important. If you are a programmer, I don't know how to take a picture of your editor. If you are a photographer, clearly the camera is iconic. I'm hopeful that we do not end up with 50 pictures of cameras. Anyway, you get the picture (pun intended.)

   

An assortment of wrenches, pliers, snips, cutters. My three knives, each is better for one thing or another. Screwdrivers, including my favorite for delicate work, the Stanley ratcheting screwdriver. Spackle knives, chisels, homemade plane, etc...

the basement was finished around this cabinet. it came with the house. i filled it with tools.

This purse has a buttery soft turquoise suede lining ... and a matching blue birds on the back and under the front flap too.

For my wonderful husband - I ran out of time as I had originally planned on making him some tools too.. I told him he would be able to guess what his gift was after seeing his cake - any guesses? Chocolate cake with home made strawberry filling - I layered the strawberries between the ganache so the berries would not seep into the cake.
