Hi Sudoers: I stumbled upon these Google Photo albums of early collaboration between Sudoroom and Fixit Clinic and thought to share. 2013-08-24 Fixit Clinic LVIII (#58) - Sudo Room, Oakland https://photos.app.goo.gl/wu3XheiMAS5w27dw6 2012-08-03 Fixit Clinic XXX - Sudo Room @ Oakland Art Murmur https://photos.app.goo.gl/ADxHSg4cFUkJsweu7 We also have a running Google Photos album for Sudoroom that anyone can contribute to: https://photos.app.goo.gl/b2cvTziaPN3sLe279 Feel free to add any photos you have there as you take them. To make it easy to add photos as you take them there’s a poster with the QR code to this album on the bulletin board in Sudoroom: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wE3nve_huhoke2xfHJI6ahcTKfu83gt7fYXm10e… Sincerely, -Peter

Shapeoko CNC machine is almost working! need help

by Jake Watters

Nicholas cleaned up the white Shapeoko CNC machine and then E and I worked on it to get it working again. I think it was donated in 2017, and it's in a very nice handmade wood enclosure. https://sudoroom.org/wiki/CNC#SHAPEOKO The spindle (cutting tool motor) wiring was chewed up by rats, but simply connecting it to a variable power supply would be fine to get it running. The actual motion controller is working fine. Does anyone know what software we should use to generate g-code to carve things out of wood or whatever? And to jog and home and run the machine? It uses GRBL firmware, there are details on the wiki linked above -jake

Carbon Fiber Dust?

by Skylar

Hi folks, I'm writing on behalf of Common Humanity Collective, a local mutual aid collective that distributes free masks and DIY air purifiers to the community. We've been looking for access to a laser cutter that has NOT come into contact with or been in the vicinity of any carbon fiber dust/residue - we don't want anybody breathing that in because we accidentally transferred some to our air purifiers! I realize this might not be possible to answer b/c so many people have worked in the space, but have people worked with carbon fiber at sudoroom before? Are there any rules allowing/forbidding it from use? Any info would be helpful, thank you! -Skylar
