Hello,
The place I work is getting rid of three work tables, which might be good
for sudoroom. One is welded together (doesn't come apart) and has a shelf.
There are also two tables without a shelf, the legs of which bolt on, so
they can be partially dismantled. The tables are all 8ft long and in good
shape.
One or two of them could replace part of the "island of doom" near the
robot arm, or perhaps the workbenches against the wall.
Pictures attached. We would need a large vehicle to transport them, and
pickup would probably have to be during business hours. I would probably
need to know if we want them today (Friday) or Monday, and we'd probably
need to grab them some time next week.

Hey guys,
Apparently, he just stalked a sudoroom member to their house and threatened
them with violence. Not cool. I don't have all the details, but I don't
think this is someone we want in the space right now.
This is the tall, skinny white guy with a Pepe the frog sticker on his
laptop.

Wheelchair bathroom is being inspected tomorrow, and needs to be clean &
shiny. I'm working on it now but would love some help if anybody is free.
Thanks
Hello Folks,
RE: Free Microwave. :)
I have been reached out with the offer of a microwave donation. Please see
message:
"I have a microwave that works fine and looks good, but it buzzes, which is
rather annoying in a small space. I was wondering whether to offer it as a
donation to Omni. I wouldn't want it to be seen as "dumping" but I hate to
throw it out."

Thank you, and please let me know if someone is interested.

Henner wrote this awesome parts organizer web service, and it's running at
noisebridge (and his house):

here's the noisebridge implementation (type a letter to begin instant search):

i would love to help fill it with information about the stuff we have at
sudoroom, but i am not confident in my ability to install it and get it running
on our network. If someone feels good about doing this, sudo make it happen
and i'll help.
