We still have work to do but it’s highly functional. * We’ve got a working layout and all the machines are pretty much deployed. * We’ve made a bunch of tip runs, containers run to get things on-site and working. * We’ve deep cleaned the kitchen, bathroom and office areas (Carpet cleaning). * We’ve got the IT infrastructure going. * We’ve been working on the interlock infrastructure. * We’ve setup compressed air. * We’ve moved the BE CNC. === Updates from digifab === * Andrew White got the bambu deployed and working. * We’ve got a Mini-PC loaned by Ale Moré for the 3d printing section. We’ve got this computer installed with windows 11 and the most used software (All free software). This machine has been deployed using Reboot RX, meaning it will go back to square zero every time you reset the computer. If you have any software request please let Ale know. * We still need to do a semi-permanent compressed air installation on the laser room. At the moment the air can be pulled from the floor. * We’ve got the 2 lasers working. Many thanks to Cameron Payne for his help and support. * We’ve done a semi rigid water cooling installation. * The chiller is not working 100%. In short is not cooling, and the temperature stays 1 or 2 degree above the target temperature. We haven’t figure the current behaviour 100%. More testing needs to be done. * Big laser and small laser * We’ve calibrated and clean lenses/mirrors. * We’ve modelled and printed fume extraction adapters. Plumbing is still momentary at the moment but functional. * Sadly the big laser is only outputting 30W of power at the nozzle. The tube is depleted. * The small laser is in pretty good shape and it’s outputting 70w at the nozzle. * The RaspberryPI have been setup correctly and we fixed their IPS on the firewall thanks to Chris Biggs. * Lightburn bridge seems to work ok. * Both lasers are functional and usable. Ale Is hoping to get inductions working again before the next general meeting. === Craft punk === * Craft punk has unpacked all boxes that have made their way to sumner * We have a detailed plan found here (Craft punk Sumner plan 1) of what we plan to do with the space allocated to us. * Next steps * acquire the stuff outlined in that post from paint factory site * Install the peg boards that I’ve taken to the space. If you have any stuff you’ve made at the space or could be made at the space using our tools that’s you’d like to declutter from you home and put on display here to showcase our abilities that would be great. === Updates from the woodshop === * We got most of the machines in the floor working and plumbed. Tune-ups and calibrations is next on the list. Probably happening this week or early next one. * We got a functional dust collection system working. Luckily the Home Assistant and the controller are working correctly. * BE CNC * We got the machine in place. We have levelled the machined and skim the bleeder board. * We did some standard TLC on the machien and so far seems ok. * We need to do dust collection next. Happening on the following weeks. * At the moment Ale wants to get the machine running ASAP so we can start fitting the rest of the areas in the Space. * Once the machine is functional Induction will be in place as per the inductions project system we’ve published in the CNC forum. ===== Agenda ===== * Dealing with Items in Storage * The Exec may post any item on the forum with a 3 day notice period instead of the usual 10 day period to sell / dispose of an item. * 8 For 1 Abstain 0 Against Meeting adjourned at 7:47 p.m. Minutes submitted by Secretary, Zac Marcus
