3D Printers
Prusa Mendel
Easy fire-and-forget operation. Stable and efficient. Essential spare parts available.
Please read Category:PrusaMendel if you haven't used the printer in a while.
Cupcake Makerbot
Crated, awaiting pickup by owner or repair. Really, this machine is limiting, very difficult to use, no longer needed to repair the Prusa Mendel, and taking up a lot of space.
Outlook
Mill stock replenishment may occur soon, pending some testing.
We ought to trade/sell most of our ABS stock. We don't need more than 1kg. PLA is stronger, except in rare (eg. high-temperature/outdoor) situations.
Costs
$83.76 Receipts mentioned last month have been reimbursed.
Project SPACECAM

GrindDC
Three NeuroSky Mindwave devices have arrived. Alexander Stone has developed a workable multiplayer ping pong game based on their raw "activity" data. Also, adding an LT1168 instrumentation amplifier may greatly improve sensitivity.
Biosignal amplifier is producing real EEG data. Occipital lobe alpha waves are cleanly detected when users close their eyes. Further improvements are focused on comfort (ie. sponge electrodes).
Optical Table
At some (unknown) date, help may be needed to bring the optical table to HacDC. It is still awaiting the opportunity and lifting resources to move in at HacDC.
Estimated at ~$3k, the table will enable advanced optical experiments and attract another field of expertise to the space. Otherwise, it is headed for scrap.
HacDC Licensing Policy
Added "by default" to make the policy less restrictive. However, the article might still conflict with other licenses used at HacDC (including GPL), or even inhibit commercial interest in our space. Might be better if the distinction between website content and HacDC hardware/software projects was made explicitly.
Old Business
- Privacy_Policy is put forward for member vote as officially adopted policy. Notification was sent to members on 04May2013.
- In the week since announcing this was up for vote, there has been a lot of discussion and probably not enough agreement to actually vote on it.
- Licensing Policy is put forward for member vote as officially adopted policy. Notification was also sent to members on 04May2013.
- Vote to approve "Article II: Membership" and "Article III: Expenditures and Reimbursements" from the Proposed Standing Rules.
- Shop Rules is put forward for member vote. Such rules as these are pointed to in Article VI in Proposed Standing Rules.
