One of our highlights of Dublin Maker 2025? Watching Dubby McMakeface - our very own Dublin Maker mascot - come to life thanks to the incredible craftsmanship of the team at Flynn Fabrication.

Over the two days, Dave and his team took our wee mascot from a sketch to a full complete sculpture - embodying the spirit of making, creativity and collaboration that drives our community and our festival!

I've still videos in post to do for the #IrishMakers Podcast and when my friend, Nathan (main interviewer on the podcasts) received a give from #Makers Unite Discord group, it was really touching. I nearly teared up when Nathan told me and then he made this video... 😭🥰

Thanks again to all the supporters and encouragement. It's been a rollercoaster this year with this podcast & meeting so many folks.

For #Makers here, I am part of Irish Makers Podcast (production) and in between podcasts and videos, I release regular Maker-related news and events. I just published a Youtube short.
If anyone has Irish Maker events and announcements, especially coming up to Christmas, let me know, so we can include it in our news. #ThanksInAdvance
