Instructables by Autodesk

Instructables started out in 2005 as a documentation system for open source experimental kitesurfing by members of Squid Labs. When they weren’t solving interesting problems like solar panels for driveways, efficiently harnessing human power, or strain sensing ropes, you could find them sharing Instructables from their workshop. From 3D printing to cooking, to making anything fly, Instructables became the recipient of countless hours of tinkering, soldering, stitching, frying, and fun.

Since its founding, Instructables has grown into an amazing community of curious doers from around the world and is home to hundreds of thousands of projects.

In 2011 Instructables became a part of Autodesk, which believes in empowering innovators everywhere to take the problems of today and turn them into something amazing. By sharing what we make, we are able to connect across boundaries and prepare ourselves with the skills needed to adapt to the future’s challenges. Every day we continue to be amazed by the imagination, curiosity, and simple awesomeness of everyone who shares their creations with us on Instructables.
