Fab Labs (fabrication laboratories) are small scale workshops with modern computer controlled equipment such as laser cutters, CNC machines, injection moulding machines and circuit board printing giving the ability within one room to create just about anything from engines to electronic devices. The concept has been developed at the Center for Bits and Atoms at MIT [1], and they have helped set up nine Fab Labs around the world so far - see a list of them at http://fab.cba.mit.edu.
