Meeting 2015-08-25
Consensus Agenda
I (Rob Lower) propose a $200 pre-approved laser cutter expense budget to buy: supplies needed to permanently mount the laser cutter; personal protective equipment; tools/accessories needed for typical use; unforeseen safety-related costs.
- This is only for future expenses. There will be another proposal next week to reimburse James for some of the expenses he has incurred. --Guan (talk) 21:51, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
I (Konstantin) propose 400$ expense for the following items to upgrade our donated cnc affectionately named "big cnc". 1) T-slot table so that we can clamp down workpieces. 2) spindle upgrade so we can cut with really small diameter end-mills without them breaking due to the large wobble of the current spindle. 3) Endmills to cut with. T-slot table: [1]

Mugenity: If you want mint or basil, go up to the roof and take as much as you want from the hydroponics. It needs to be shut down because of a massive water consumption issue.
