Another shot of the finished and working 3D printers we all built this morning. We all had a lot of fun.

Finally got the Prussa back up and running, the Rostock needs a good deal more work, though.

Setting up for maker faire

For my whistles printed to give away at Chattanooga mini maker faire tomorrow.
Off to set up now.

Got the mill powered up now. Still needs a fair amount of work and some tooling, but it's good to see things spinning.

Finally got around to setting up a proper tray for the keyboard and mouse at the Stereo PC. You can finally type at a comfortable level and not have to worry about knocking anything down!

LAN party underway, feeding each other hot lead and death. 😁

I found some new material at home depot that is 2.7 mm $11 for a 4 by 8 sheet in cuts at a 100% speed 80% power. Also it looks pretty on both sides

Didn't realize that the HackSpace magazine was free to download as a PDF.
Lots of interesting Raspberry Pi projects, plus many other articles to try out as a new project.

Special thanks to Jeff, Michael Rowland, Curtis, Jonathan, Tim Miller and Dennis. They were able to put quite a dent in the mess including sweeping and mopping floors, putting away items and general cleanup. Curtis and Dennis also organized the woodshop better as well. We should try to do this once a quarter.

Michael, Tim and Jeff were also able to clean the laser grid which was starting to get really nasty smelling of smoke residue.

Great works guys. We should buy then a beer!

We are having a lan party again this Saturday.
8pm until late. 25th August at the space.
We'll do a pizza run at midnight..
Come play quake, unreal tournament and more.
Trash talk your enemies while they are in the same room!

Steering wheel for an XBox controller. Works quite well.

Way to go Tim! This thing was full of dirt!
