I'm up in the space, I'll hang up here another 10 min or so.


No animals were harmed in the making of this email. However, several thousand electrons were severely inconvenienced.

The frequency of e-mails coming from the mailing list makes me wonder if we should have a place online that's more like IRC/IM that's easy to use for everyone. I've taken the liberty of creating a room on Matrix that you can access using Riot.im:

https://riot.im/app/#/room/#swanseahackspace:matrix.org<https://riot.im/app/#/room/%23swanseahackspace:matrix.org>

If you're wondering what Matrix is:

Pro's:
- It's decentralized
- It's not Slack

Don't be an idiot Andy, you can't use a cheese in the "semi-hard" family for a CNC enclosure. Might as well make it from brie! 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?

I would just like to add that at this point, I don't care what the enclosure is made of as long as we have one and work with the CNC can be resumed quickly. 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.

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.

I understand there was a discussion at the start of the evening about the CNC enclosure. What did I miss? 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.
