Revision as of 17:39, 11 March 2022
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) is dedicated to supporting our maker community in their creative process by providing shared space, shared tools, materials and a knowledge base to turn their ideas into reality.
We have on hand several Raspberry Pi boards, of various models, as well as other computers throughout our space for all our members to use
(without any additional required training).
Safety First
Members must know the following information:
- In case of emergency, call 911.
- Our physical location is:
- 735 East Pikes Peak Avenue
- Colorado Springs, CO 80903
- use this when ordering pizza or an ambulance

- Review the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) information of unknown products before use.
- SDS information is available via the QR code on the hazardous chemical storage cabinet or this spreadsheet.
- Do not bring dangerous chemicals to the makerspace.
- Spray paint, stains, and other approved items must be stored in the hazardous chemical storage cabinet in the Vented Room.
- Please DO NOT paint indoors.

Area Captain -- Volunteers needed
Classes
- Pikes Peak Makerspace announces its Upcoming events, including classes, on Meetup
Training
- The Raspberry Pi was originally going be a computer that could only run the Python language. (That is how it got the second half of its name.)
Events
- Pi Day, March 14th (3/14), is celebrated yearly often by eating pie, pizza, and/or reciting the digits of pi.
- It was started in 1988 by the Exploratorium museum in San Francisco: https://www.exploratorium.edu/pi
