Saturday

[Don Smeller]

I counted 23 people who came through 10Bit on Saturday.

Oscar finally got his domino-size-playing-card-holder-board laser cut from plywood (times 2). He was tickled.  Big tip jar contribution.

Thanks Ray for the CAD help.

Ken R had to reprint his limit switch brackets. Too short.  Progress: His DIY 3D Printer now sits proudly upright on a spiffy new cart.  Next, wires.

James M poured more aluminum trinkets plus a surprisingly functional tuning fork. 

Kevin (cello player) had an app in his pocket to tune the tuning fork to match the original.  

Virtually everyone at 10Bit knows frequencies from having played musical instruments in former or current lives.

Peggy reported brisk sales of her postcard water colors at last week’s mission event.

Maria and Andres held a study hall, all afternoon in the studio. Finals are coming.

Don S got to paint uninterrupted for 2.5 hours.  Yay.

One armed Cliff dropped off his Shimano fishing reel. He’s asking 10Bit to help him add a motor and build a prototype.

Cellphone photo.  SketchUp overlay. skp-to-dxf plugin. Thanks, Jeremy, for the tool chain help.  Laser Cut acryllic.  McMasterCarr online for 3mm threaded rod. 

This project will spool out over several coming weeks.  Stay tuned.

Sacha and Mary cut more boards.  We gotta do something about dust.

Two girls named Ariana at the hackerspace on the same day!?  What were the odds?
