The license for a single music player at their members clubs rates is ?221.58+VAT per year? The UK Hackspace foundation did discuss? the idea of group licensing, but it doesn't get any cheaper.

The thicker the wood the slower the cut, i think the record on that machine is 10mm or so, which was done in multiple passes. > and does it need void free birch ply >?or will any old plywood do? There are many debates about this online, from what i can work out its mostly about quality of finish, that any internal knots or voids can affect the cut. I have also seen it mentioned that exterior grade ply is best avoided, as some use nasty chemicals in the glues. > Also can it engrave and cut in one operation? Kind of, you can queue up multiple operations/passes with different settings, but it is a bit of faff and usually easier just to do it yourself. save each pass as a separate file with the same document size, then when you load each one it should all line up.?

I feel disturbing those 6 hours with something that can be done any other day or time is a bit unfair. I recognize I might be a bit biased and overprotective over crafternoon times but this is what brought me to the hackspace in the first place as I didn't initially think this was "a place for me" as I don't really use the machinery or the electronics. This might be the case for potential future members. As I understand it, hackspace's policy is to be as inclusive as possible on the things people create withing it so I feel that disturbing events like crafternoon or asking if the metal fillings count as glitter is not conductive of this. As I said, just my biased opinion here and I don't really know how many are sharing the sentiment. I just felt like voicing it. Best, Sophia 2017-07-12 12:00 GMT+01:00 Andy Rush >: I had an idea for a temporary enclosure for the cnc machine: we cover it with one of the large transparent plastic storage boxes that Wilkinsons sell. It'd be easy to cut holes in to run the control wiring and a vacuum hose through, It should keep chips/swarf/sawdust contained for easier cleanup, and more importantly wouldn't involve modifying the machine in any way. Also it'd be a fairly cheap stopgap until a better solution can be rigged up. If there's no objections to this idea, I'll drop by the space this afternoon to get some measurements for the machine, then pop over to Wilkinsons to see if they've got anything that fits.

At the moment the hackspace is very underutilised, given that the time that most of us have to work on our hobbies is either in the evenings or over the weekends. It's more the exception than the rule that someone is in there during the day. Are there some of you who not only want to use the hackspace to pursue a hobby, but maybe also use it as a springboard for a new business or making some money with a side project? Are you already a small business owner, or do you see yourself making things and selling them in the near future? And what are the things preventing you from currently doing so? I can imagine lack of time being the main reason, but maybe you feel that you lack some skills? Or is it just that you can't imagine making things at the hackspace because you don't feel that the equipment is reliable enough, or maybe there's a specific tool that you're missing? If you think you can answer some of these questions, I would like to hear them. I want to help make it easier for people to get started making things, and I want to know what the real problems are people are facing. I want those of us who would like to make things and sell them as a side project, or maybe even as a small business, to get together and discuss the problems and possible solutions for getting things going. How about getting a meetup running every first Thursday of the month, where we can have someone give a talk on what they would like to achieve, or maybe even on what they have already made and how they got where they are? If you are interested, please let me know what you think. If instead you think that the hackspace should only be for people to practice their hobbies and should not be used for producing things, maybe it's time to have that conversation as well.

Nicola and I are just about to start a Cafe (signing the lease today actually) ... Cafe Make which is in Pontardawe. https://npttheatres.co.uk/pontardawe/cafe-make/ www.cafemake.org https://sites.google.com/view/cafemake/pontardawe https://www.facebook.com/CafeMakePontardawe/ Its all in the early stages and not open yet .. probably will be in early August... but we would like to make things and hack stuff and have crafts people there at different events. We also would like to encourage tie ups with hackspace for people to meet the experienced people and use the tools there if possible. The link to the comment is we want people to make and show and sell their wares if possible ... and to teach and learn ... also we intend to make items like signs for the cafe in the hackspace. Not sure how it will all work as I'm still learning to make cups of tea properly ... but its hopefully an extension to the Maker movement in the area?

I have a copy of the site setup somewhere for experimentation, i will make sure its up to date and give you access to it, you can then see how the templates and css are setup and experiment with it. another challenge if anyone is upto it is finding a better way to organise the page tree. there is a lot of information on the website if you dig for it, but it isnt that well laid out. the ideal would be some way to make it quick and easy to access it, whilst at the same time not overwhelming visitors with options and clutter.? > There was lots of talk at the AGM about a membership push later in > the year when the students get back from summer, would be nice to > have everything looking shiny by then.

(halp Liz pls). > http://nathanhackett.com/hackspace-logo.png > > For reference the current logo- > http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/uploads/Resources/Downloads/logo.svg I am not keen on the circuit tracing pattern to the green, it implies an emphasis on electronics whilst offering nothing towards the large amount of textiles and other crafting that goes on. It would be nice however to define an official set of logos for different uses, so far we have just ad-libed when needed, but a definitive set of files on the website for people to grab would be really useful. I envisage three versions: 1) Full logo, for full colour media, posters, website, bookmarks etc:? ? ?- red, green, white, copper ring 2) Low color, for screen printing, vinyl cutouts etc: ? ?- red, green, assumption of white background 3 ?Mono logo, for engraving/stamping/stencils etc ? ?- single colour From matt at daubers.co.uk Mon Jul 17 10:09:45 2017 From: matt at daubers.co.uk (Matthew Daubney) Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2017 10:09:45 +0100 Subject: [Swansea Hackspace] Hackspace website, logo etc...

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Justin I agree about the circuit tracing, thought someone would bring that up. I was going to try to add something representing textiles too, but it's probably better to have nothing than to cram too much in. It's nice to have some sort of texture, just so it looks visually interesting in full colour as well as flat. Once everyone's happy I can generate all the different versions in whatever formats we need, plus a style guide with hex colour values, official fonts etc. No rush on getting me a login, I can always just rip a page or two as static html and start playing around in the meantime. :) On Mon, Jul 17, 2017 at 10:10 AM, Matthew Daubney wrote: > > > On 17 July 2017 at 06:47, Nathan Hackett wrote: > >> I've got some time this week to start on some website redesign stuff. >> Just wanted to get the ok from the powers that be before I put any serious >> hours in. :) Mainly cosmetic, with mobile specific CSS to make it a bit >> easier to navigate.

I was reading about Mattermost as a Slack alternative but Tim's right imo, any kind of group chat system would be better than facebook. This especially - "Join or create rooms per topic, per team, per event? Decide the level of transparency you want to provide across the organisation or project" would be super useful for us. For example members who don't care about CNC enclosures needn't get pinged every five minutes. :) If the mailing list is annoying to anyone using gmail, the inbox tabs feature lets you automatically silo messages into the "Forums" tab so you don't get notified all the time.

A proper grating cheese is the only way to go for structural integrity. Any basic pecorino would do, no need to pay the extra for parmesan. Maybe a member has some at the back of their fridge they could donate?

Gwion's box is fine, a spraybooth is fine, hell, if someone is a cheesemonger and can get us enough cheddar to make an enclosure, fine. as long as we have one, I'm happy. ________________________________ From: hackspace-bounces at swansea.hackspace.org.uk > on behalf of Tim Clark > Sent: 25 July 2017 10:36 To: hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk Subject: Re: [Swansea Hackspace] CNC machine improvements... We have previously decided that we don't have space for a permanently assembled spray booth so Gwion's box isn't really suitable as one. I have no real objections to a spray booth but it would need to be collapsible so I can be packed away when not in use. After looking at the box Gwion brought I'm happy that it is a good starting point for a CNC enclosure with some sealing and the addition of a door of some sort.

Don't really want to get into the "wood vs plastic" debate again, but there's another potential use for Gwion's Ikea bargain... Spray booth! I know several members have expressed an interest in having one, and it's the perfect size. There's no reason the CNC machine can't still get its own box very quickly once there's a plan. _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace _______________________________________________ Hackspace mailing list Hackspace at swansea.hackspace.org.uk http://swansea.hackspace.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hackspace -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Bristol hackspace have one of the huge A0 size Just Add Sharks laser cutters afair. Cardiff FabLab have laser cutters, but no idea how large.
