Ninjas! Jehan who taught us to weld while drinking beers the first day we met, isn't working his day job anymore. It sucks, but it rocks for us -- he's now into coming around from noon on Fridays, and be part of the team (at least until april when he might move from the Bay) - so he can be our inhouse metal-dude. Awesome. Please welcome, Jehan! Hooray! Make a great day, Morten

Hi peeps, Turn on your torches and take a look at this. I worked with some different things and this to me is the best one. Marc and I don't know about the mouth, that's def. the weak piece right now. Let me know your thoughts. [image: Inline image 1]

Fwd: Modtaget forudbetaling til bestillingsnummer: 660367 (openmechanicsinstitute.org)

by Morten H. D. Fuglsang

Our domain name has been ordered and paid for, for the coming year. www.openmechanicsinstitute.org Marc has a server and has said yes to host it. Awesome. I intend to put a wiki-thing on it so we can start documenting it all ASAP. Tom and I are totally on top of schematics. We will be ready for getting metal Wednesday, and tom might have qa connection to get it chepaer/free.

Metal-picking tomorrow & Lost Mails

by Morten H. D. Fuglsang

Ya'll, Tomorrow we're picking up metal, gasifier, and... Was there more? I suggest meeting 1pm outside the shop, ready to go. Rembmer road-trip music :] Tom and I made a shopping list, and Tom may have some connections for getting what we needs cheaply. It seems the sudo listserv has been out of order the past few days. Hopefully it works again now so that you all may receive this. I'll resend some things that I sent out the past days too. Make a great day, M

Fwd: [sudo-discuss] Oxy-acetylene Torch

by Morten H. D. Fuglsang

Ya'll! Here be some notes from today's meeting-thing: * * *We're going roadtripping Wednesday to get metal! And building starts next Friday. Woohooo!* *TASKS* - Materials + Torch + Gasifier, a day with a pickup truck: Wednesday! Eric, Marc, Morten, Tom. Party. Who brings music + beer? - website: Morten buys domain, marc has hosting. morten sets up the website. THinking wiki-style - People-resources: Tom will ask some mates. Eric's got a few too. Eric see if getting camera man. - Mail OSE: where to start. Eric! - Getting metalL: ERIC: where to buy metal new + allpowerlabs, TOM: ask metal friends, MARC+MORTEN: ask around west oakland places ie. american steel *** questions: got some free stuff? where do you source yours? - Go thru material list, create overview of hopper and grater for next Friday's production. OMI's for next Friday: TOM: Hopper Grandwizard, Morten: Cheesegrater Grandmaster *LIST OF METAL PLACES* Materials: - get in touch with the metal recyckers. make a list and put it out there (take list from OSE?) - hiow to get materials cheaply: --- BM communities --- car dealers --- steel artists --- west oakland American Steel --- pick and pull --- use carparts, standard parts all across world) --- junk yards for cars etc. --- port of oakland repair facility --- urban ore? reuse people? --- advanced heliarc welding --- foundry by the berkeley freeway. foundry of berkeley. --- allpowerlabs --- crucible *BUDGET/FINANCES* https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiIRz_Mdr867dGtNd0JQY01hR3ZheU… seemed the easiest for now, though in the future we should set up something open source for sharing files etc.) *Misc thoughts* - Covering costs of CEB: leasing, operating as brick producers, co-ownership (liability?) - Resources: Santa Cruz group; diyfor kids. made documentary for OSE. - ASME pressure vessel code; Nigelk will look into it. we need to revisit these legal things once we've buiolt something that can kill people. for stqart, put on "this is art, doin't touch it". Possible sell as kit wiht one thing that has to be assembled; legal loopholes. "MEDIA": - assumption: it is valuable to people on the interwebs to learn from our expereinces as a rookie-metal-group doing OSE stuff. ---> how to form a group and replicate us. ---> breaking down intimidations (OSE is intimidating if you are new to metal and production in general). Make a great day - and BIKE PARTYYY! Morten ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Morten H. D.
