Project Awesome

Here is the Project Awesome spreadsheet for October: File:HacDC PA Projects-2013 10.pdf. I'm able to declare a $1000 dividend and add $284.54 to our un-earmarked reserves. There were 17 votes, unchanged from the previous month.

Secretary's Report

A big thank you to Alberto for all the incoming queries from [email protected] he has responded to.

Project SUPPLIES

Financial Outlook

At >$1.4k, we have a sufficient reserve to make major repairs (~$300) to 3D printer, CNC mill, and laser cutter simultaneously. Supplies funding should now be reduced to a trickle in favor of EXPANSION.

Recent Purchases

Spare Prusa Mendel hot-end ($87.00). Laser cutter upgrade materials ($18.19). Small plastic containers. Useful as storage for small parts, solder paste tools, or laser cutter stock ($13.72).

Prusa Mendel

Ordered waterjet laser cut custom glass bed. Unfortunately, it cracked on installation, so I have eaten the >$68 cost :'(. Continuing attempts to laser cut, or manually cut, a new sheet of glass. Alternatively, an overlay may be used, see the red plastic mounted over glass on the printer.

For anyone interested, One Day Glass does offer excellent service.

Member Reports

Martin - HARC Technician License prep class 11/13 and FCC License exam session 11/23. David and I are wrapping up installation of a donated asterisk server and VOIP phones at St. Stephan's.
