<human>:  How did the maker movement start?
<bot>: The Maker movement started in the 1980s, but it really took off in the 2000s. The term “Maker” was originally used by 3D printing enthusiasts to describe people who use 3D printers to create things. However, in recent years, the term has come to mean anyone who makes things, whether they use 3D printers or not.
