* Jim Brink has resigned, Dave Solomon will be voted on as the new cold metals area host.
* Sam Paris Woodshop Area Host
** "I'm among the walking wounded, but at least I'm walking"
** Other woodshop volunteers have been "kicking butt" and carrying the load well in Sam's absence.
** Couple of concerns:
*** How Much money is in my budget? I know what I've spent but not sure about others.
**** Jennie will send it over to him, $420 has been spent by others
*** Wants to reduce the amount of sawdust and clutter in the woodshop
**** "There is the carrot and the stick, I prefer to use the carrot"
**** Want to buy a few things to make it easier to clean out shopvacs and dust collector and filters.
**** Work some on education on cleaning things out and woodshop best practices
***** Make it more obvious what the "right thing" is.
** Drum Sander Vote
*** "I think the unit I chose can take a little abuse"
*** Wingate asks: "What does it take to replace the papers"
*** Not too much different, but Sam has some ideas on how to make this easier.
*** Conversation went on about Belt Sander problems for a while.
** Sam would like to get a computer and monitor in the woodshop somewhere so people can look up instructions and manuals and the like.
*** James proposes this could be a small fanless machine, but asks where should it go?
**** Good questions, should be discussed.
*** Tim Proposes a QR code with links to resources put prominently on the machine.
* Jennie will be putting out another newsletter with the help of the robot overlords.
** If anyone has anything they'd like to see in it, please send along.
