MISSING BACKPACK from Sudoroom (from tool cabinet),

by Robert Chu

Hello Sudoroom, I put my backpack in a tool locker (back of Sudoroom) while I was helping out with the Spaz event over the weekend. and was tired to remember to grab it before I left. I thought I had it in my van, and just remembered that I left it here. It is a blue backpack, with a Dell M4800 Workstation Laptop, which I need for work, also contains a composition notebook as well, as pens and other things. Sierk has informed me that there has been many people cleaning, which is why I think the reason for the moving. If possible, please contact me at 415-724-0425 or this email. Thank you Robert Albert Young Chu P::415-724-0425 E:: robert.chu01(a)gmail.com

3d printer solder paste dispensing at sudoroom using rpt2paste

by Jake

last night at sudoroom i did some things to get solder paste flowing from the TAZ 3 3d printer. i brought in a compact air compressor and adjusted its power switch to click off around 100 PSI (since it was failing to reach its design pressure in a reasonable amount of time and we only need like 40-50PSI for solder paste) i'm not sure if it's still working because it cut out apparently due to heat the last time i was running it, but possibly just because of duty cycle. It needs a fitting installed into the outlet to plumb it to the solenoid. Fittings are in the box behind the printer and there's teflon tape in the "tape" box on the shelves in sudoroom. i installed a three-port solenoid on the 3d printer which plugs in instead of the extruder resistor / temperature sensor. It contains a 47KΩ resistor to simulate a thermistor (to avoid a fault code) and it wires the nozzle heater wires to the three-port solenoid (which is rated at 24VDC matching the printer's power supply) I piped the 3-port solenoid to a syringe and mounted a syringe holder on the print head assembly in a reasonable place. A syringe of solder paste is in the sudoroom fridge and can be used. Needles of various sizes are in the cardboard box behind the 3d printer. the air compressor's outlet needs to be plumbed to the flexible black hose going to the 3-port solenoid. The solenoid needs to be mounted to the print head (a twist-tie should work). unfortunately the 3D printer's firmware seems to be cycling power to the nozzle resistor when a temperature is selected, probably because of PID parameters, so we will have to look for a set of commands (or modified firmware) to activate the solenoid properly during the dispensing process. This printer doesn't seem to have wires for a print head fan, which is how we connected the solenoid in past implementations of this setup. There will need to be a script or modification to rpt2pnp to issue the right commands for this setup. as a reminder the software for creating g-code to dispense solder paste from the .rpt file output of a KiCAD circuitboard project is here: https://github.com/hzeller/rpt2paste note that it's superseded by https://github.com/hzeller/rpt2pnp which may be newer. the latter was confirmed to (apparently) correctly process the .rpt file from the project we'll likely dispense solder paste onto first: https://github.com/fitzdoingprojects/big_battery i'll be gone for two weeks but if anyone wants to make progress on this project please write back and i'll help as much as i can. -jake

Troy asked to leave

by robb

Troy, a member of sudoroom, has been asked to leave due to his recent behaviors most recently sleeping at omni & intimidating people. although informed over the past 3 days, he refuses to leave. as Troy is a member of sudoroom, i feel it is our (sudoroom's) responsibility to get him to leave until mediation can happen. any ideas?

free 76-key Korg SG1 keyboard

by Jake

there is a very heavy Korg SG1 keyboard available for free in west oakland. i'm not bringing it to sudoroom but i wanted to offer it to people on this list before putting it on craigslist. I was told it works but i haven't tested it. You should be willing to take it either way. Here's an article about it from like 1987 http://www.muzines.co.uk/articles/korg-sg1-piano/258
