Basecamp

What is Basecamp?

Basecamp is the project management software we use to collaborate and discuss a number of ongoing projects at Lowell Makes. It serves as an alternative to lengthy email chains and incorporates to-do lists and calendars to help keep things on track. If you are interested in being added to a project listed below, please email [email protected].
