• CNC Dust Collection
  • We need to make emptying the filter part of CNC operation
  • Can we add a manometer to the collector so we can see if it’s working?

New Business

• What to do with our new space?
  • Write down some suggestions today, have some discussions in the next few weeks, vote in a short term experiment (maybe 3 months), then at that later time reevaluate and re-vote for a semi-permanent use.
  • This worked well for the warden's program, a trial and then a more permanent vote with slight changes as things were done in practice.
  • Keep in mind: It would be pretty useful to leave the vote a bit flexible and open ended.

  • Vote next week, proposed on Thursday so not 7 days notice (being fair to everyone here.)
• Proposal for Edge Technology Pro Tram System
  • Next week - Vote on 1/10/17
• Vote to get a bench multimeter and probes - Up to $220
• Vote to overturn previous affirmative vote to remove CNC storage
  • Non-specific, general vote

New Business

• We are soliciting suggestions for the new space.
  • Limitations - This will need to be a relatively quiet area. Nothing can be stored in the hall. It rains in the room a bit.
  • Paint Booth?
  • Move the meeting area or lounge?
  • Hive IT? Could we move the servers in there.
  • Moving the fab lab into the new space?
  • Additional personal storage as a perk of cornerstone membership?
  • Can we add another door?
