Topics Discussed
Metal shop footprint - simon_clark
Last week we discusses re-arranging the metal shop. The loose consensus is to get rid of ~80% of the wood, and decommission the blue wood storage shelving, and expand the machine shop slightly. We would have to build an 8 foot wall. We will do some preliminary cleaning tonight.
replacement of metal cutting saw - simon_clark
Maybe.
more reliable laser cleaning schedule - simon_clark
Laser cutter got _really_ disgusting. Tar (MDF residue) builds up on the honeycomb bed. We need two, so we can rotate through, and a pressure washer might assist as well. Blower fan was also full of dust. Many hackerspaces have people/groups who own the maintenance of a tool. Kind of a stewardship program. Even a monthly rota or chart (i.e.: public washroom maintenance).

Experience Guelph event - 60 volunteers - simon_clark
August 31st, the University wants to send 60 volunteers to us to do something. What can we do with 60 people? Can we even fit 60 people into the shop? Can we use a smaller number for cleaning? Inventory? Christmas float? If anybody has a workable, practical, _positive_ application, please email the mailing list.
