  • Don't trigger the alarm! We have 24 hour access to our space and the front stairwell ONLY. The alarm is active from 10pm to 6am in all other spaces.
  • THE PURGE IS COMING!!! The time has come to do some reckoning with all of the various and sundry crap we have in the Dungeon. Consider this your official warning - if an item that you own or want is in the dungeon without a current valid parking pass, it will be considered trash, and will be treated as such. We don't have a firm date yet for the purge, so we will keep you posted.

Vision for expansion into the dungeon

Let’s split into large-scale goals with a range of priorities.

  • landlord to finish promised improvements (paint, clean up, bathroom, panel)
  • Dungeon “habitable” first
    • Purge the crap
    • Shelves to move
  • Short term: nicer member storage
  • Medium / long term:
    • Photography
    • Lounge
    • Kids space
    • Tool library
    • Recording studio / video / streaming
    • infrastructure/server room

Outreach

  • What a year! Check out the deets from our last meeting here and keep up with us as we get ready for 2023 on Slack (#outreach)
  • No meeting for December! Hopefully Kostas P. will learn how to send an email sans anxiety by then.
  • "Hive is Real" shirt order form coming first week of January 👀

Votes

  • Brad has proposed a vote for a new 5 hp motor for the main air compressor. We are currently limping along with a smaller one, so we are not "dead in the water," but I think we're in agreement that this is a necessity! Vote closes on 12/5. Please vote on the thread in Discourse.
