Make (stylized as Make: or MAKE:) is an American magazine published since February 2005 which focuses on do it yourself (DIY) projects for individuals and groups, involving computers, electronics, metalworking, robotics, woodworking and other disciplines.[1] The magazine is marketed to people who enjoyed making things and features complex projects which can often be completed with cheap materials, including household items. Make has been described as "a central organ of the maker movement".[2]

In June 2019, Make magazine's parent company, Maker Media, abruptly shut down the bimonthly magazine due to lack of financial resources. It was subsequently reorganized and began publishing quarterly issues, starting with volume 70 in October 2019.[3] Make Magazine is currently published by Make Community LLC.
