Project Descriptions

• 3D Printing: We've got a Makerbot Cupcake (on loan from Andy Walker) and a mutant early Reprap both extruding noodles of melted plastic on command. If you need a custom small plastic part, design it in a CAD program and come print it out.

• HacDC Spaceblimp: Near space initiatives and Hackerspaces In Space contest.

• Machine Shop Classes: Classes on using the lathe, with possibilities for growth into other machines in the future. Beginners to advanced.

• LightningTalks: 12 speakers present 5 minutes talks on any topic that interests them! Monthly.

• WOPR: The HacDC IRC bot. Check out what WOPR can do for you and contribute modules for fame and fortune.

• HacDC Intranet Server: An Intranet server provides an on-site platform for interfacing HacDC-specific devices or scripts or files.

• Occupancy Sensor: PIR motion sensor with output embeddable in various webpages, so people could see when the space is occupied.

• Physical Access Control Project: Doors, Locks, and their Control

• Stuff: HacDC has lots of stuff. More stuff is always coming in. HacDC has a limited amount of space. Some stuff has to go out.
