"Hello World" Project and machine-tool inductions...

[Billy]

I came across this idea from an Italian hackspace,
http://7hillsmake.org/2012/03/22/hello-world-of-making-project/

It's a basic introductory project, that as a side-effect of building
it, means you have to learn how to use the 3d-printer, the pcb etching
tank, the laser-cutter, and the soldering station.

What could we come up with as a project that would give similar
introductions to the tools we've got?

[Adrian Godwin]

Never mind learning those things, how about a project that involves
learning to empty the bin, put away the things in the kitchen and
stamp on the cockroaches ?

I think that's a brilliant idea and something I'd really enjoy and benefit from

[Jim MacArthur]

It's a nice idea, but right now I think we have a shortfall between
people willing to give training and people actively seeking it; I've
been waiting for nearly two years for laser cutter training.

Great idea, i've been trying to get induction to the laser-cutter and soldering station for ages (beside others).

In one day to have a crash course would be handy. So +1 pls
