The Central Ohio RepRap and MakerBot Operators User Group
is having its September meeting tomorrow night, from 19:00
to 22:00, at The Columbus Idea Foundry: 1160 Corrugated
Way, Columbus, OH 43201, near the 5th Avenue exit of I-71.
If you've been to the Columbus Idea Foundry before, the 1160
door is closer to the classroom and unlike the other exterior
doors, can be unlocked.

Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of the month

The Columbus Mini Maker Faire is coming up fast. Several of
us have submitted applications, and this is the last monthly
meetup before the day of. This meeting will be a good
opportunity to coordinate our efforts. I will be looking into
some sponsorship for printing plastic for the Faire. Please
let me know if your preferred filament is *not* 3mm ABS.

This month, we also have a special treat: Bill Steele will be
bringing his prototype Ultra-Bot. It's a retooled CupCake,
with a much larger build platform and other enhancements.
It's also the feature of a Kickstarter campaign with several
weeks to go. This Wednesday is your chance to see it
in person!

The monthly meetings are free and open to all with an interest
in the technology regardless of prior experience. Bring your
enthusiasm down to the Columbus Idea Foundry, and if you
know someone who wants to learn more, bring them along, too.
