Old Business

May make a purchase proposal areas - prior to this our options have been Discord or the dry erase.

Other options:

  • AirTable
  • Google Forms

Christopher will make a Google Form that will export into a spreadsheet

Callie is asking for a 3d printed casting setup. Liz recommends: Make a furnace?

  • Collect cans to melt and recast
  • Can also be used on the CNC milling machine

Sven's community help ideas:

  • Recycle/remake scooter batteries - Side project?


New Business

Policy in place for using dangerous equipment:

  • Possibly assign a person to each piece of equipment to approve
  • Restrict to members
    • Restricting members for this meeting and requiring a release form, Obi will draft up a policy for approval and a release form for the future.

Make Open Project Night more visitor-friendly

  • Add some structure
  • Make sure people feel welcome, nametags, introducing ourselves
  • Make sure there are two people in the space (Going to be Christopher and Liz, Sven when possible)

Update Bylaws for Membership to clarify requirements for other membership tiers

  • Qualifying Life Events that can cause monetary hardship.
  • Revisiting next month

The parking lot will be inaccessible sometime this year due to construction in the neighboring lot (The church is unsure of dates, should let us know when ``they`` are updated)

TLDR: Comcast pricing sucks - Gabriel reached out to check pricing, no discounts for nonprofits, business line only. We will look into Astound, highly recommended by Chris and Kyle
