A
Alright,
everybody-
let's
get
started
here
so
welcome.
Today.
We've
got
April,
10
SD,
regular
meeting,
so
we
got
a
B
here.
Anyone
else
is
John
John
on
the
call
okay.
Well,
we
get
started
anyway,
so
everyone
who's
on
a
meeting
here.
So
as
far
as
the
the
first
page,
what
I'd
like
to
do
just
to
get
the
meetings
organized
better
is
to
whenever
people
are
looking
at
the
agenda
and
filling
in
their
work.
A
Please
write
in
the
time
amount
of
time
that
you'd
like
like,
for
example,
here
I'd
like
to
talk
about
the
introduction
for
like
15
minutes,
just
thinking,
maybe
a
bad
like
50
minutes
here,
but
if
so
that
we
can
basically
gauge
how
long
each
meeting
needs
to
last
I'd
like
to
keep
them
efficient
as
possible,
and
today
I
actually
need
to
cut
out
very
sharp
at
3
p.m.
so.
Hopefully
we
get
through
everything
as
needed
here.
So
let's
start
on
an
agenda
here,
so
I'll
go
over
the
critical
path
stream
manufacturing
competition.
A
A
A
A
Let's
start
with
so
let's
actually
go
to
page
number
I'll
put
that
right
below
the
notes
here
and
let
me
share
my
screen.
A
Okay,
so
please
take
a
look
at
the
screen:
critical
path
just
to
review
I've
been
refining
this
and
kind
of
getting
really
focused
on
what
the
Year
deliverables
are,
and
definitely
the
the
most
outstanding
thing
to
keep
in
mind
is
the
immersion
program.
You
can
click
on
the
link
for
the
actual
critical
path,
but
the
immersion
program
coming
in
september/october,
so
very
clear
goals:
six
full-time
people
by
end
of
2018-
that
is
my
personal
goal,
I'm
trying
to
really
commit
to
that
and
make
it
happen
in
the
best
way
possible.
A
Like
say,
2
by
2
foot
work
working
surface,
where
we
can
do
things
then,
like
print
rubber
tracks
for
the
tractor
I
mean
basically
there's
a
whole
load
of
parts
that
we
can
one-by-one,
replace
and
all
the
things
that
we
use
right
now,
including
things
like
cordless,
drills
and
so
forth.
Cuz,
if
you
imagine,
you
know,
take
a
think
about
a
cordless
drill,
it's
a
bunch
of
plastic
plus
some
motors
and
batteries
and
a
little
bit
of
electronics.
A
Well,
that's
where
the
3d
printer
circuit
mill
come
in
to
pretty
much
build
a
whole
range
of
electromechanical
devices,
so
very
important.
Ok,
so
main
goal
September
immersion
program.
So
all
this
development
until
then,
is
really
focused
around
that
with
may
actually
go
to
this
one
here
with
the
3d
printer,
a
lot
of
development
on
that
the
first
real
workshop
on
a
calendar
is
Eugene
about
June
20.
It's
gonna
be
June
21st,
I'm
speaking
out
there
and
and
for
that
I'm
preparing
the
the
plastic
frame
d3d,
but
with
an
upgraded
like
lots
of
improvements.
A
So
one
main
thing
is
using
the
e3d
hotend
with
volcano
nozzles.
There's
there's
one
called
the
e3d
titan
arrow
AER.
Oh,
that's,
that's
a
extruder,
that's
an
extruder
that
fits
all
our
needs.
It
can
work
both
with
the
volcano
nozzle
and
it
can
do
rubber
it's
it's
designed
for
rubber,
printing,
meaning,
flexible
filaments.
So
that's
big
time
and
last
year
we
built
a
two
by
two
foot
printer.
We
never
got
it
running,
but
I'm
gonna
work
on
finishing
that
will
it'll
be
interesting
to
see
the
larger
prints
and
how
that
works
and
practice.
A
Focusing
on
a
scalability
of
the
like
the
PVC
v,
3d
version
where
you
can
make
I
mean
pipe,
is
easy
to
scale
up.
So
the
frame
is
very
easy
to
scale
up
and
I'd
say
the
one
of
the
biggest
value
propositions
that
we
have
is
the
Construction
Set
approach.
So
I'd
really
like
to
nail
this
down
where
we're
building
3d
printers
of
all
sizes.
A
We
have
a
standard
model,
but
then
we
have
a
construction
set
with
a
d
3d
workbench,
a
design
guide
where
people
can
design
their
own
and
have
that
become
a
very
respected
way
that
if
you
want
to
build
a
printer,
fast
and
cheap
and
high
performance,
this
is
the
way
to
go.
So
that's
that's
kind
of
the
way.
A
Let's
see
what
else
we
got
so
so
that's
that's
the
main
thing
about
the
roadmap.
I'm,
definitely
working
on
the
book.
So
the
right
parts
are
my
tasks.
I'm
working
on
a
book
so
every
day,
I'm
putting
a
few
hours
to
write.
The
book,
which
is
gonna,
be
critical
for
culture
setting
and
path
setting
for
the
immersion
program
and
as
we
go
forward
so
and
some
other
things
here.
A
Let
you
see
the
hero,
X
micro
factory,
that's
still
on
a
drawing
board:
12-inch
D
3d
with
large
extruder,
getting
back
to
the
Lyman
filament
maker
d,
3d
laser
cutter
plastic
shredder,
those
those
all
go
to
the
micro
factory.
So
so
the
theme,
the
central
theme
of
the
of
the
immersion
training,
is
the
basic
small
tool
micro
factory-
and
you
see
here
towards
the
end.
A
It's
we're
gonna
run
a
lot
of
workshops,
several
workshops
every
month
and
the
other
thing
that
I
I
thought
about
recently
is
once
we
have
the
small
micro
factory
you
can
get
into
the
design
jams,
and
let
me
just
go
into
that
so,
following
up
on
it
right
on
a
schedule:
okay,
one
thing
with
the
3d
printer:
that's
that
a
3d
printer
allows
is
is
having
that
connected
to
the
internet,
so
you
can
actually
do
a
print
on
demand
service.
So
this
is
the
open-source
print
cluster
I.
A
So
each
pi
zero
could
take
a
few,
could
control
a
few
printers
and
since
the
PI,
zero
is
only
like
$10
PI,
zero
W
with
Wireless
it's
ten
dollars.
So
I
was
thinking.
The
best
route
would
be
perhaps
a
PI
zero
for
every
four
computers
for
printers
in
case
there's
a
failure.
I
mean
a
PI.
Zero
should
be
very,
very
stable,
but
in
case
there's
a
failure
like
whenever
you
have
a
print
failure
on
the
server
side,
which
is
the
PI
zero.
A
It
will
only
take
down
for
printers
instead
of
like
a
hundred
printers,
but
that's
that's
just
a
thought
and
we'll
see
how
it
goes
in
practice.
We
might
have
each
PI
zero
do
more
than
four,
but
that's
probably
a
likely
likely
outcome.
It
has
to
be
scalable.
Open-Source
low-cost,
octo
print
is
well
developed.
That's
really
working
for
us.
Octo
print
is
a
high-quality
print
server
software.
A
A
A
Here
it
is
the
so
basically
how
do
you
do
it?
You
got
a
frame,
you've
got
the
universal
axis,
and
then
you
can
start
with
a
frame
putting
on
two
different
axes.
The
frame
can
be
scaled
in
many
different
I
mean
this
is
totally
scalable.
It's
made
of
flats
cut
out
of
seeing
CNC
flats,
but
once
again
we
can
do
the
PVC,
which
we're
exploring
right
now
and
I'm,
pretty
confident.
That's
gonna
work
I
mean
I'm,
just
getting
the
PVC
printer
up
and
running
here.
It
looks
really
positive.
A
We
could
definitely
make
it
work
for
a
super
high
quality
printing
and
then
the
scalability
is
much
easier
because
the
cutting
PVC
pipe
to
length
is
much
easier
than
cutting
metal
to
size.
In
fact,
when
I
think
about
it,
it's
when
you
think
about
okay,
you
got
to
expand
the
size
of
it.
Wow,
that's
a
big
CNC,
cutting
job.
You
got
to
go
to
the
torch
table
or
whatever
device.
That's
cutting
your
metal,
so
PVC
makes
it
very
easy.
A
B
A
Got
but
but
that's
that's
a
start
for
the
design
guys
moving
on,
so
here's
the
once
again
a
little
bit
more
on
the
personal
microfactory.
The
uses
are
several
and
I'll
bring
this
up
more
as
we
go
here,
but
it's
a
small
machine
set
that
you
can
run
in
your
home
in
your
garage.
It's
practical
scalable
platform,
3d
printer
with
a
3d
print
head
laser
head,
CNC
circuit
mill.
So
the
thing
is
we
can
do
production
of
new
printers,
for
example,
if
we
run
workshops.
So
what
are
the
use
cases
I'm
asking?
A
We
can
do
extreme
jams.
So
that's
a
concept
I
brought
about
last
time
where
we
get
together
to
do
a
workshop,
followed
by
a
weekend
of
prototyping
and
the
challenge
there
is
that
it
takes
time
to
prototype.
But
one
thing
we
could
do.
Definitely
if
we
bring
our
film
at
maker
plaster,
grinder
to
an
event,
think
about
a
cookbook,
basically
designing
3d
printer
printer
filaments,
especially
metal
ones.
So
we
know
that
there's.
A
What's
it
called?
What
is
it?
Phil
Forge
virtual
foundry
who's
got
metal,
embedded
printing
filaments
that
when
you
bake
them,
you
Center
the
metal
and
it
becomes
a
hundred
percent
metal
and
the
results
on
on
that
are
pretty
positive.
So
one
thing
we
could
do,
for
example,
is
having
exploratory
design
jams
where
we
experiment
with
okay:
let's
get
some
metal
powders,
put
it
into
PLA
and
extrude
our
printing
film
and
see
if
it
works
and
maybe
have
a
national
competition
like
that.
I
was
thinking.
A
That
would
be
a
great
thing
to
do
with
chapters
once
we
get
chapter
started
in
different
people
working
around
the
u.s.
say
we
do
like
a
monthly
big
design,
jam
or
extreme
design
jam,
and
we
have,
you
know,
we're
competing
to
make
the
best
filament
or
something
our
prototype
of
the
tractor
using
a
scalp
scale,
prototyping
or
whatever.
That
may
be
okay,
and
then
that
kind
of
actually
leads
me
to
Abe
right
into
a
'beware.
What
I
was
gonna
suggest.
A
So
this
third
point
here,
3d
printer
plus
small
laser
to
make
scale
models
able
we
got
to
do
is
we
got
to
set
you
up
like
as
soon
as
we
can
to
a
3d
printer
and
the
small
laser?
So,
for
example,
when
you're
doing
the
work
on
the
tractor,
you
can
also
prototype
the
scale
model
where
you
see
everything
how
it
fits
in
place.
There's
a
little
missing
link
and
the
thing
that's
been
troubling
us
before
was
accurate.
A
Cad
of
the
parts
like,
for
example,
the
motor
that
wasn't
accurate
for
last
time,
but
photogrammetry
I
was
actually
gonna.
Ask
you
how
you
feel
about
photogrammetry.
If
we
could
maybe
do
this,
do
an
experiment
where
you
download,
if
you
go
to
the
the
wiki
photogrammetry,
there
should
be
a
page
there's
a
good
program
and
a
recent
video
by
the
Prusa
I
think
might
be
I.
A
Don't
know,
I
can't
find
it
open-source
photogrammetry.
So
if
you
take
a
look
at
that,
look
at
call
map,
that's
what
Joseph
Prusa
suggests
for
3d
scanning,
but
the
relevance
of
that
is
immediately.
For
example,
the
engine
or
the
pump
and
I
know
you
might
not
have
the
exact
pump
or
engine,
but
we
should
get
good
at
this.
A
Photogrammetry
toolchain
develop
it
so
that
we
can
get
accurate
parts,
and
that
could
be
something
that
we
could
do
in
our
design
jams
we
bring
apart,
that's
an
unknown
like
a
pump
and
then
we
scan
it
and
work
it.
So
we
get
a
perfect
model,
as
the
result
is
part
of
the
work
that
goes
on
in
a
design
Jam.
So
it's
just
something
to
get
you
thinking
on
that,
but
but
I
think
photogrammetry
is
something.
A
Maybe
you
can
put
that
into
your
road
map
down
the
road
after
you
get
far
enough
on
the
tractor
and
power
cubes
to
actually
prototype
it
accurate,
but
then
then
we'd
want
to
get
a
3d,
printer
and
small
laser
to
do
that
and
yeah.
So
a
maybe
you
can
continue
on
the
power
cube
and
I.
Can
ask
you
some
more
questions,
but
I
brought
out
a
point
here:
how
about
it
extreme
design,
Jam
somewhere
in
Arkansas
you're
like
five
hours
away
and
I'd,
be
willing
to
go
down
there.
B
A
Let
me
well
let
me
let
me
pipe
in
it
on
that,
just
a
little
bit,
because
I've
been
thinking
about
that
as
well.
I
do
believe
that
if
you
would
have
just
the
URL
like
without
going
to
publish
within
the
Google
Doc
itself,
like,
for
example,
if
I
look
at
the
current
okay,
let's,
let's
take
a
let's
look
at
that
right
now,
because
that
would
be
worthwhile
to
see
if
that
actually
works.
A
But
you
have
the
main
identifier
of
a
particular
doc
like
if
you
look
at
my
screen,
for
example,
there's
that
identifier
and
now
when
you
publish
because,
for
example,
what
if
we
could
make
a
template
within
the
wiki
that
just
requires
that
only
because,
if
that's
so,
then
we
could
pass
that
as
a
parameter
into
a
template.
But
let's
take
a
look
at
that,
so
say
what
happens
when
we
go
to
to
file
publish
to
the
web?
Does
that
get
retained?
A
B
A
Do
you
think
about
template
izing,
the
actual
development
template,
which
is
right
now
embedded
as
a
Google
Doc
I
mean
we
can
do
a
template
within
a
wiki
where
you
just
type
in
the
name
of
that
machine.
Like
say
power,
cube
version,
18
point,
oh
five,
let's
say
and
that's
the
parameter
you
pass
into
the
template
and
then
it
gives
you
the
entire
wiki
based
markup
of
that
template
that
you
then
just
click
and
then,
when
you
click
on
it
actually
open
make
creates
that
page
automatically.
A
B
A
Right
I
mean
the
way
it
should
work.
All
together
is,
you
know,
say
we
did
a
version.
We
maybe
didn't
get
to
document
everything
perfectly,
which
is
the
normal
case
we
carry
over.
Then
we
start
a
new
version.
Then
the
cool
thing
is
that
you
can
pick
all
the
old
information
off
the
old
work
and
therefore
you
can
rapidly
fill
in
a
new
template
and
then
fill
in
the
missing
pieces
that
were
not
there
before.
So
so
in
principle,
just
moving
forward
and
copying
stuff
over
to
new
versions
can
be
a
decent
way
to
go.
A
A
Right
and
the
biggest
asset
there
is,
if
we
have
the
CAD,
that
anyone
can
download.
That's
of
course,
the
main
critical
asset,
and
for
that
we're
doing
fine
like
right.
Now
we
go
to
the
wiki
and
say:
there's
a
project:
we
can
quickly
identify
right
down
to
the
cat.
I
mean
that's
the
most
critical
item.
A
A
C
A
Yeah,
yeah
and
yet
I
think
the
thing
we
want
to
do
like
once
we
okay,
so
we're
saying
that
for
this
September
is
immersion
training
and
the
3d
printer
work
I
mean
we're
getting
down
to
the
design
guide
and
once
we
get
enough
like
I
mean
hopefully
by
September
I
guess.
But
by
that
time
we
have
to
have
some
pretty
good
documentation
that
we
could
publish
as
a
book
like
as
here's
our
design
guide,
here's
our
instructionals
and
so
forth
and
and
send
it
into
space
as
well.
Yeah.
A
That's
something
that
kind
of
gets
into
the
publishing
thing.
Where
Scribus
is
the
open
source,
publishing
platform
that
we
want
to
use
for
that,
so
we
can
probably
do
it
in
Scribus
and
make
make
publishable
high-quality
materials
as
well
as
with
the
you
know,
I
mean
we
do
have
another
deadline
for
Oh
end
of
August.
Is
the
deadline
for
publishing
the
all
the
materials
on
a
CD
go
home?
So
that's
that's.
How
we're
gonna
do
that?
A
July
August
is
going
to
be
a
lot
of
work
on
that,
but
we
got
to
publish
that
our
deadline
for
the
Kickstarter
rewards
is
the
end
of
August
and
we
kind
of
are
really
committing
to
that,
because
we
don't
want
the
that
Kickstarter
CD
go
home
thing
to
drag
out
any
longer,
because
we
got
to
move
on
to
some
other
things
too,
so
yeah,
but
publishing
and
the
way
I
see
it
happening
right
now.
My
greatest
hope
on
increasing
the
team
and
growing
is
well.
A
So
and
then,
once
we
start,
the
workshops
like
June
starts
the
3d
printer
workshops.
That's
gonna
be
getting
more
out
there
as
we
finalize
these
versions,
I'm
pretty
optimistic
about
the
small
printer
that
I'm
doing
right
now.
It's
just
the
8
inch
bed,
but
then
scaling
it
up
to
the
the
2
foot.
Bed,
2
square
foot
2
by
2
feet,
I
mean
that's,
that's
pretty
impressive
and
if
we
can
show
that
that's
doable
really
easily
I
mean
essentially
with
all
the
same
parts
I'm
showing
on
the
screen
right
now.
A
Here
I
think
that
would
be
a
huge
value.
Add
especially
when
this
we
have
quick,
interchange
tool
head.
So
you
can
put
on
your
laser.
You
can
you
can
modify
this
readily
to
be
your
CNC
circuit,
mill
and
so
forth.
I
think
that's
gonna
work,
especially
with
the
with
a
filament
maker
that
people
can
start
recycling.
A
If
we
can
start
doing
that,
I
think
that's
a
huge
value
proposition
that
whatever
say
we
go,
do
a
workshop
at
a
school
or
something
we
start
start
them
on
recycling,
taking
all
their
plastics
and
making
3d
printing
filament
things
like
that.
So,
there's
definitely
a
lot
of
work
to
be
good
stuff
to
be
done
with
the
3d
printing
and
just
in
publishing
in
general.
We
can
get
get
our
work
out
there.
B
A
B
A
You
use,
if
use
PLA,
it's
fine,
but
if
you
use
ABS
that
smells
so
you'd
be,
if
you
have
it
in
your
in
your
workspace,
you
want
to
use
the
bioplastic
like
PLA.
That's
that's
pretty
fine,
it
doesn't
smell.
It
smells
kind
of
nice.
Actually
so
oh
yeah,
oh
yeah,
and
that's
the
that's
the
addition
that
we're
we're
working
on
we
want
to
develop
as
I
was
talking
about
in
the
print
cluster.
Already
Christian
has
done
an
initial
version
of
the
LCD
3d
print
cluster.
A
We
actually
have
an
image
for
that
using
octo
print,
but
yeah.
We
just
want
to
make
that
a
standard
feature
for
our
3d
printers,
because
yet
is
a
pain
that
you
have
to
compromise.
Well,
you
have
to
dedicate
pretty
much
a
computer
to
that.
So
you
want
to
just
send
that
job
to
the
Raspberry
Pi,
zero
and.
B
B
A
Well,
that's
actually
pretty
good
I
mean
I'm.
Looking
at
the
map
four
hours,
30
minutes,
so
I
think
we
should
plan
for
something
like
so
June
late.
June
is
gonna,
be
the
the
Eugene
Oregon,
but
after
that
I'd
say
I
just
shoot
down
arrow
should
organize
something
for
mid-july
or
something
now
that's
vacation
time,
though
so
the
universities
kind
of
like
not
in
season
right.
B
A
B
A
Yeah
well,
I
mean
the
vision
for
us
is
that
the
future
care
is
where
you
walk
into
a
place:
the
osc
Walmart
and
there
you
have
all
your
fabrication
equipment
where
you
produce
on
demand
within
the
experience
economy.
That's
that's
what
it's
that's!
What
it's
about?
Okay,
but
yeah?
Let's,
let's
think
about
that.
So
definitely
that's!
Let's
shoot
for
something
in
July
cuz.
What
I
want
to
do
is
before
the
immersion
program.
A
I
want
to
make
sure
I
get
a
lot
of
experience
where
we
can
just
go
off
to
even
a
public
library
even
do
like
a
free
workshop
and
then
people
who
who
sign
up
for
the
workshop
if
they
want
to
buy
the
printer
sure
they
can
and
we
can
bootstrap
fun
that
way.
I
mean
I,
think
there's
just
a
lot
of
opportunity
for
3d,
printing
and
especially
like
the
few
packages.
A
A
Looking
at
your,
do
you
printer
that's
looking
pretty
good!
We've
got
the
the
new
extruder
head,
which
is
the
precise
3
mk2,
with
an
with
a
hacked
8
millimeter
sensor
instead
of
the
4
millimeter,
and
why?
Because,
with
the
Pei
surface
that
we're
using,
sometimes
we
have
trouble
getting
too
close
to
the
to
the
surface.
So
the
eight
millimeter
gives
us
some
clearance,
yep
Jonathan
John.
Any
comments
on
were.
C
C
A
C
A
A
Yeah
the
file
started
as
a
hundred
twenty
K
and
then
I
shrunk
it
down
to
five
K.
So
it's
the
super
simplified
version.
If
you
don't
need
to
edit
I
mean,
maybe
you
can
just
use
that
because
you
only
need
the
paths
if
you
we
need
to
edit
it
so
I
mean
you
can
just
use
that,
but
that
yeah.
But
that
means,
if
you
change
the
x-axis
there,
this
one
right
there.
That
means
your
frame
could
shrink
up
a
little
bit.

Okay,
hey
guys
I
got
a
sharp
cutoff
at
at
3
p.m.
do
you
guys
want
to
just
continue
talking
a
little
bit
and
I'll
just
leave
it
recording
but
I
gotta
I
gotta
get
going.
