Open Insulin Website Redesign - Volunteers Needed

by ramy kim

Hi Sudo & CCL members, Open Insulin <http://openinsulin.org/> is in *dire* need of a website redesign. It’s been pretty basic, but we’re looking to do more with it: post regular science updates & blog entries, provide solid information on how to contribute, and include more resources for further research. Anthony can do the coding, but it would super sweet if anyone ++ wants to step up to take creative direction on this. It is a great way to be a part of this project, even if you don’t have lab skills (at the moment). I would have loved to help take this on, but counterculturelabs.org <https://www.counterculturelabs.org/> also so badly needs an overhaul so I’ll be focusing my efforts there for now. If you are interested, ping me directly please and I’ll get you started! Also, join us any Wednesday @6pm at CCL if you want to be looped into what we’ve been up to. Love & robots, Ramy

Lsser cutter.... Dead?

by Morgan Allen

Trying to get through a project but the laser isn't behaving. Stalls during a cut (with laser on of course) but manages tp start back up a dozen times before just stopping and burning a hole in the piece. Tried 4 or 5 usb cables with varying results but still couldn't get a complete cut

Re: [sudo-discuss] New OpenTrons OT-2 in Sudo/CCL!

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Hi Keoni - do you have any pipettes for the OT-2? We installed it right on the boundary between CCL and Sudo for now. Once we start doing real experiments, we should move it into the wetlab though. We also happen to have a Biometra TRobot, which is essentially a thermocycler with an automated lid, so it can be easily incorporated into a liquid handling robot. That should give us an ideal platform for PCR applications on the Opentrons... DNA barcoding of mushroom species is probably our #1 killer app for this robot. When Alan Rockefeller comes back from his current outing throughout Mexico, he will likely bring several hundred mushroom samples with him, all of which will need to be submitted to PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing. Alan usually mashes each sample with a little plastic pestle in an Eppendorf tube - not sure how to replicate that on the robot, but we could brainstorm a little device to macerate mushroom samples...

plasma screens in the dump/donate area

by Cere Davis

Heya, Whoever “donated” these large plasma screens, can you tell me if they are known to work? They weigh some 80 pounds and I can’t easily move them to a power outlet to test. -Cere -- *Cere Davis* Science-Art | Kinetic Sculpture CereDavis.com @ceremona <http://Twitter.com/Ceremona>

Calling all hardware startups: Sheet Acrylic Manufacturing Workshop

by Ruth Grace Wong

Exciting news: This time Mike Zhao, our contract manufacturing expert, is going to come for the Q&A in person! You can read more about him and the contract manufacturing process here: https://medium.com/supplyframe-hardware/shanghais-contract-manufacturing-a-… *Note that due to Meetup.com fees we are increasing the price to $85, but we will honor the previous price of $75 until Sunday October 7th.* ------- Are you manufacturing something with plastic? How much do you expect to pay for your molds? $10,000? Maybe even $100,000? If you are a startup and don't have the capital or the volumes to justify expensive plastic molds, manufacturing out of sheet acrylic might be the answer for you. Myself (Ruth) and Rik are running a sheet acrylic manufacturing workshop. We make the whole process accessible, from teaching joints/cutting/bending to sharing local prototyping contacts and hosting a 30 minute Q&A with a Chinese contract manufacturer. The workshop is from 9:30AM to 12:30PM on Oct 20th at the Noisebridge Hackerspace, and costs $85: http://meetu.ps/e/FRckd/qrLmq/f Feel free to contact me at ruthgracewong(a)gmail.com if you have any questions Best, Ruth
