Minutes

  1. Jeremy: PlasmaCAM update
  2. Mike and I have grounded the PlasmaCAM with an 8ft ground rod. We’re hoping to test it again Tuesday afternoon.
  3. Jeremy: CAD stations and Adobe Suite and Fusion360
  4. The Board of Directors approved us to purchase one copy of the Adobe CC Suite, a second copy of Adobe Illustrator CC, and a copy of Fusion260.
  5. A new volunteer named Jerry R is working on improving the CAD PCs and upgrading them to run the software optimally. 
  6. Steve W: New light switches
  7. Steve volunteered to add new light switches for the Machine Shop and North Loft. This will allow the lights to operate independently. Also, breaker #6 in the Machine Shop breaker panel will stay on at all times.
  8. Tracking member certification
  9. Steve W: We need an additional way to track who is certified in a shop to use the tools. How about a clipboard in each Dept that lists certified members?
