Mat Mets of Make: Online visited a great science store in Kansas City called HMS Beagle.
While in town for the Kansas City Mini Maker Faire, we had the chance to visit the HMS Beagle, which is a gem of a science store located in nearby Parkville. Started by John and Carol Kuhns, they stock an impressive range of geeky equipment, from telescopes to model rockets, rock tumblers, and Arduinos. In addition, they also host science club meetings, star gazing parties, fossil digs, and other fun-sounding activities. If that isn’t enough, they are also the home of Make: KC, an enthusiast group for Makers that meets in their shop on Tuesdays.
