Hybrid Meeting Etiquette

Be excellent.
Attendance and voting can be found in the #meetings slack channel.
Please show up early if you are concerned about your audio.
If there is no one waiting to speak feel free to do so at the next opportunity.
If there is someone waiting to speak, please say that you are raising your hand in the google call chat. (This will be demonstrated)
Please refrain from other side conversations, these can be distracting for the rest of the meeting and make it difficult for the chair to keep track of what's going on.
If you're in the space remember that having a single person speaking at a time is helpful for those attending online.

Commons Area

Treehouse has a set of papasan chairs, however keep in mind the cushions as they are, can't be washed, and they're a natural cotton. (Washable) covers need to be made to keep the cushions welcoming and not gross.

Craft Room

Kevin has moved the rest of the craft room stuff out of the old craft room, and it's now temporarily set up in the new area. However keep in mind it's still in active expansion mode, with painting and wiring and tool/desk setup still to come. Last Saturday, we got the cinderblock wall washed to prep for paint. It's going to get a fresh coat, floor to ceiling!

Electronics Lab

New components: AMS1117 regulators in 5 common voltages are in the regulators section of the parts wall
Spent some time cleaning during Potlock, curtains are laundered, shelves slightly improved
Big thanks to David Henry for vacuuming and David Smith for doing the chairs and benches
Also thanks to EVERYONE who uses the lab and tidies it up as they leave
We're building a new e-lab! Planning meeting this coming Saturday (April 6), on the calendar.
Meeting will be in-person and online, same format as member meetings, same link.

Fab Lab

Glass Zone

Won a bid for ceramic tile need to redo the floor in Glass Zone! Do you have or know where we could get thinset donated?

Do you have any interest in helping paint a mural on the walls of glass zone? Do you want to design it? Looking for some help :)

Sewing Zone

There is still much to do to get the zone ready for use. Finish wiring, get/install ceiling tiles, install heat pump, finish drywall (after wiring) and prime. Painting the walls, installing lighting, floor, floor molding, wall fixtures. We have an embroidery station desk, not the L shape I planned but it's double sided! And it has a power lift!! Cutting tables need to be built, ironing station needs to be built. Lots of classes and workshops planned for the future but first we build!

Tool Crib

The Proxxon dremel has walked away from its home... if you know where it may have wandered to, please help it get home!

i3TV

For those running classes, consider filming parts or allowing some coverage of your class if you're comfortable. Help can be offered, plus editing can be done to make sure anyone NOT comfortable with it, is not on the final cut. Filming and photographs can also be taken with that in mind, attempt to avoid getting someone in the shot who doesn't want to be. I'd like to help capture some of our content and get it out where people can learn and see what we have here. Maybe we could grow our channel enough to get some small funds from it.
