I guess some of our stand will be dedicated to 'making a makerspace'. We'll have an array of 3d printers, Matthew's lamps, Toby's Video mixer, Gordon's capacitive doorbell...what else?
Does anyone want to brew up a project specifically for this event? And possibly the Make:Shit:Do event the following week.
One aim of these events is of course to attract new members, as well as engage the general public in what we do!
On another note I'm wondering about making a short film covering our work on the arch. To that end it would be good to have a camera we could set up in the arch for time lapse as that's always a fun thing to have. Setting it up at the back would be a good idea, potentially shooting towards the light. Anyone got a GoPro or similar? We'd need it a few months....so bear that in mind!

Well there are the cameras people mount on dashboards, some are pretty cheap, will have to research if they do time lapse. Doesn't need the sturdiness of a GoPro.

At least one of those was quite a good camera IIRC? So might work. Laptop bit of a pain compared to SDcard....

we've got that laptop I donated.
It will give a bit of protection on power as it has a reasonable battery.
I've got it here at home at the moment.

Could one of the members please step forward to oversee the organisation of this, there are 5 tables 140x70 to fill.

Id like to go along.
I could bring up my 3d printer and a few arduino bits and pieces.
The only problem i have is i cant take that lot on the train.
Is there any parking at all onsite or even unloading.
Gordon
There was talk last night of only having one 3d printer on our stand.
On reflection I disagree with this. I think it underestimates the huge appetite the public still have for this technology.
Our experience at the V&A and FT reminded me of this very strongly: the majority of people had never seen one before.
So I propose we have a Reprap as well as Laurent's delta (assuming that's what Laurent was planning to bring, that is?)

My only restriction is travel.
If theres no way for me to park nearby i cant bring anything along that wont fit on the back of my motorcycle at the most.
My disability doesnt get me a parking badge as i dont get any help from the state. If i was on benefits i could park in disabled bays and it wouldnt be a problem for me.

For the maker faire you can park on a Saturday in nearby residential streets, notably the one directly behind the LCC. There is a 1.5 slot in the morning for driving into the college to drop off gear.

I can bring along my prusa i2 as a comparison to a Laurant's delta.
Its starting to look quite tidy now and its red.
Ive even invested in more red cable ties.
Its a pity we havnt a member with an sla printer.
Maybe thats the sort of printer the makerspace could invest in to compliment the laser cutter.
I can still bring along a pile of arduino stuff and shields/components.
The door bell is still in one piece and the doorbot2 is still on a breadboard.
I just need to dust them.
Gordon
I think your multi rotor and plane (if there’s room, could we hang it?) would be fantastic.
The conversation in the pub was more about not looking like a sea of 3D printers, which is an overriding memory I have of last year’s mMF.
The ideal for me is for instance to partner up Matthew’s (partly) 3D printed lamp shades with a 3D printer itself, as then we’ve got a story with everything: application, means, members helping each other out
I think it’s interesting we’ve got an cartesian printer and a delta printer – what can we do to compare them, and (without dismissing one over the other) help Laurent sell his ideas / mods?

The first time it's scary but now it's fun I really enjoy exhibit and show letting people know what you are doing being proud to be a nerdy geek is rewarding
