Prusa Mendel
Bed leveling issues became an increasing nuisance, due to a lack of suitable glass and clamps. Using dremel tool, glass cutter, and laser cutter, I have finally created a multilayer through-hole mounted glass bed.
This took weeks of experimentation and shattered glass that would have been much easier if we already had a wide-area CNC built on the optical table.
Future Plans
After cleanup at HacDC, can consider improving generic supplies like mill stock, electronic components, laser cutter stock, and hardware (ie. screws).
Project EXPANSION
Financial Outlook

Future Plans
As noted on the Project Tracker, Vertical Bandsaw and Server are top-priority items.
Vertical bandsaw has been specifically cited as an example of the kind of metal/wood/plastic working tool required at HacDC.
High-end VM server will be used to PXE boot the WYSE terminals into high powered computers.
