Cost to build this tiny house was $3500 for materials, labor was donated by
my non-profit. This tiny house follows the guidelines of AB 2176 for
"housing crisis emergency shelter". Having 120 square feet and being no
taller than 15 ft above ground level, no permits are required. As part of a
workaround for dealing with occupancy issues, zoning laws and unpleasant
nimby neighbors in Marin County, it is located on a "sanctuary site" -
where federal religious land use laws apply under RLUIPA.
…
[View More]This tiny house provides shelter for a young couple who grew up in Marin,
obtained college degrees and are both employed in Marin. After a series of
rent increases on a small room they were renting which was substandard,
they could not find any other affordable options in Marin and started
living out of a car.
The plans are open source - I am working on completing a sketchup model
before the plans go up on github. Since my non-profit wishes to construct
more of these shelters in Marin and other locations in California, I am
working on the next version of the design which incorporates elements from
wikihouse and will utilize a cnc router for construction.

I've finally come around to realizing that I'm just not
going to finish a couple electronics projects I set aside a
few years back. If anyone is interested in post-war tube
audio, I have, free to a good home:
- Dynaco PAS-2 preamplifier
- Dynaco Stereo 70 power amplifier
All the bits are there, including tube complements, and I've
had both working quite well in the past. The selenium
rectifiers have been replaced, but I started, but did not
finish, replacing the power supplies and can …
[View More]capacitors with
modern components. They'll need that work finished before
they can play music.
I should mention that the power amplifier is heavy. If
you're interested, you'll probably want to put them in a
vehicle: car, truck, bicycle trailer, &c.
I should also mention that while these could be great first
projects in tube audio, anyone working on these kinds of
circuits should be mindful of electrical safety. Voltages
are high, and power supply capacitors can store dangerous
amounts of energy. I have a homemade capacitor discharge
tool if you want it.
Relatedly, I also have a TubeDebot 6L6 kit amplifier in good
working order, also free to a good home. I'm not sure if
the model is exactly the same, but here's the manufacturer's
current page:
https://tubedepot.com/products/model-16ls-stereo-integrated-tube-amplifier
It's a neat little amp, quite powerful, takes line-level
input, and has a built-in volume knob, so you can use it for
phones or computers or MP3 players without preamplification.
I was gifted a smaller TubeDepot ready-made amp some time
after buying the kit, which is why the kit amp sits quiet.
Special thanks to Jake for encouraging me to mention on this
list. I'm not currently subscribed to sudo-discuss, so
please make sure to copy me.

Hi all,
Just came by Sudo Room tonight, and I met a guy named Zirk there (pretty
sure I'm not spelling his name right, but that's how it sounded). He knew
his way around, and told to email you all.
I'm just looking for someone who knows how to repair 3D printers,
specifically the SLA kind. Can anyone help, or can point me to someone who
can?
Best,
Koz

Subject: [sudo-discuss] E-waste Program reminder & request
Date: Sat, Nov 2, 2019 10:24 PM
If anyone could please help with this task, it's a relatively simple one:
Omni's recycling service provider is CiviCorps, an awesome local org. They
provide FREE ewaste pickup, but the service has to be requested …
[View More]and things
to be picked up itemized.
The online form is here:
http://www.civicorpsrecycling.org/ewaste/
Is anyone able to help take this on sometime in the next few weeks? Please
include the large TV located on the Entrance Hall stage.

Hi everyone, I know we discussed at the last meeting Gwen slamming the door
in someone's face when she asked to use the bathroom. There was another
incident that went down the exact same way a few days ago, and tonight
there was another that prompted me to ask Gwen to leave.
I was sitting in the small classroom and heard Gwen answer the door, and
shouted "it's 50,000 a month, are you going to help pay for this place,
huh, are you" in a very aggressive tone, but she allowed the person in to
use …
[View More]the bathroom. As the person was leaving, Gwen shouted "YOU'RE WELCOME"
repeatedly in an extremely snotty tone. I heard this myself, confirmed I'd
heard correctly with the woman who used the bathroom, and then asked Gwen
to leave. To her credit, she simply said "no problem" and left immediately.
This is a completely unacceptable way to answer the door at Omni. I'm not
sure if Gwen if a sudo member, but I strongly feel whichever collective she
belongs to should call her in and have a conversation about this. At the
same time, I feel we have the responsibility not to pretend this problem is
limited to Gwen and at the next sudo meeting we need to brainstorm ways to
reform the door policy to be more inclusive.

Hi sudoroom,
Everything going well on your ends? I haven't been able to keep up to
date with the happenings of the collective.
Anyways, I'm writing because I recently stumbled upon on a blockchain
system which allows for trust-less enforcement of decentralized
organization policies. I found the project intriguing and wanted to run
this past the community to see what people think about the structure.
Using a set of voting classes and judicial review classes written into
contracts, the …
[View More]network they built provides transparent governance for
the viewing and participation in important decision for open groups.
The blockchain network in question is called Aragon. Linked is the white
paper for reference: https://github.com/aragon/whitepaper
Also written in JavaScript/Solidity, right up sudoroom's alley.
Let me know what you guys think.

Kristine,
I will forward your email to the Sudo room makerspace in oakland, they
might want them for their computer lab.

Sudoers!
Free computers, is anyone at the Omni interested in them? Presumably they
are reasonably powerful if they were used for CAD. [see copied email]
