Hi guys,

Great showing last night.. thanks for all of the help.

As we discussed in our call on I think our first project might be to
build a MakerBot over a weekend and the completed box that will become
part of the space. We talked about charging for the event in order to
raise money to cover the cost of incorporating into a non proft. I
think we might need to ask a corporate sponsor for the initial $1000
to cover the cost of the MakerBot kit. Let me know if you think of
some good candidates who we can ask.

Last night, other people had some good ideas for other projects. Can
you please respond to this thread and document these ideas so everyone
can chime in with their thoughts.

Couple more ideas:

 - 3d scanner (goes well with a 3d printer)

 - hacking wiimotes

 - build a projector

 - homemade wifi antennas

 - xbox mods

I would like to see an aluminum framed MakerBot. Does any one see any issues with using aluminum instead of plywood? My main concern would be the conductivity of the frame and if it could cause a ground fault or other similar problem.

[Rick Pollack]

I can't think of an issue using aluminum - should be fine. Do you have the ability to fabricate aluminum pieces? I'm looking to get some aluminum and/or steel sheet cut.

I am a sheet metal fabricator.

I gave you my card when you brought the makerbot to 2600 a few months ago.

[Rick Pollack]

Right. I did not recognize your email addr so I was not sure...

I will email you directly to discuss the fabrication items...

Excellent, look forward to it.
