Kansas City, MO – October 15, 2026 – The 10th season of Make48 has officially wrapped, and what a way to celebrate a decade of making and innovation! We invite you to get an inside look at the Season 10 National Championship as it unfolded at the community-centered Operation Breakthrough Ignition Lab in Kansas City, Missouri.
Seven qualifying teams from across the country gathered to take on a challenge centered on community impact, working alongside Veterans Community Project (VCP). It was an unforgettable 48-hour sprint packed with creative problem-solving, hands-on STEM education, and making for a cause.

A Decade of Innovation
Hosted inside Operation Breakthrough's Ignition Lab, the event brought together the next generation of changemakers in an environment built to empower youth through workforce development and hands-on fabrication. Watching the students step up to tackle real-world community challenges proved once again how powerful young minds are when given access to the right tools, mentors, and encouragement.
Events of this scale are made possible through the generosity and vision of our community and corporate sponsors who champion the value of STEM and hands-on learning. A few of our key supporters include: Westlake Ace Hardware, Hovey-Williams, Rhys Ivy, Global Earthworks Underground, Scott’s Kitchen, Fastenal, ShopBot Tools, Trimble, Thunder Laser, MakerBot, Dynamism, Carhartt, BodyGuard, and Quantum Coffee Roasters.
Two full episodes documenting the 10th National Championship will air on Roku early next year. Viewers will be able to catch the complete journey of the teams and their respective competitions on the This Old House Makers Channel, followed by releases on YouTube at the Make48 YouTube Channel.
As we close out this milestone year, we’re already looking ahead to the next chapter, bringing even more dynamic competitions, hands-on STEM challenges, and young innovators into the spotlight. Thank you to everyone who made this season unforgettable. See you in Season 11!
