Scents and Non-Scents

by Ira Brightman

Hi All, As per last night's discussion at the meeting I would like to suggest the following: The Omni building be declared a scent-free workplace. There are many such offices, etc., especially in the Bay Area. This means anyone entering the building is required to refrain from using perfumes (except natural ones from a health food store), hairsprays, deodorants, scented makeup, etc. All cleaning products and the like should be free of scents (many very fine natural ones are available), paint or other building improvement products should be free of scents and chemicals if at all possible (there are paints that are chemical free and have no odor.) However, any member project producing an odor or unavoidable smoke or odor from a room improvement that can't be avoided, should be exempt from any restrictions. In such cases, the membership should be informed of such project's timeline, so affected members can avoid building use at such times. Have a funny day. Best, Ira Brightman (The Life-Extension Comedian)

Test email (check out receipt of emails)

by Ira Brightman

Hi All, If you have a Yahoo email and see this only in the Sudo room archive, this and many other Sudo-discuss emails are likely going into your spam folder. Have a funny day. Best, Ira Brightman (The Life-Extension Comedian)

important tax information

by Marc Juul

It looks like the fiscal year for sudo room ends in November instead of December. I'm inducing this from scant information available but will try to verify with the IRS tomorrow (their phone lines are pretty jammed today). This means that, for the tax forms that we file the deadline is 15th of April instead of 15th of May. Again, I will try to verify this. It seems that Max Klein actually did file taxes before 15th of April last year, so we're good. -- marc/juul

Self-replicating Caffeine

by Marc Juul

Does anyone know where I can get a plant or seeds or cuttings of the ilex guayusa plant? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilex_guayusa I'm already growing ilex paraguariensis at Omni but I'd like to have both plants. Why? Because they literally turn CO2 and dirt into caffeine. How are we not all doing this already? -- marc/juul

sudo at maker faire

by Jake

is sudoroom going to have a presence at Maker Faire? It means a bunch of people can get in free. All we need is a table and some interesting things to put on it, and people to sign up for shifts to guard the table. also i think it could be a good opportunity to attract excellent hackers to our space. no we cannot bring the robot. it's too big and delicate and they would never allow us to turn it on without a cage around it. -jake

SHOPSMITH (7 in 1) tool works as Table Saw, Lathe, Disc Sander, Drill Press, Horizontal Boring, Router, Shaper.

by Alice Rosenthal

Hey Sudo-ers, I was dropping off the radial arm saw a couple days ago and Rayc helped me unload. I came the following day with some ply that can be used to replace the particle board cutting surface. Thicker wood would be ideal. I'll keep my eyes open for the optimal material. As I was leaving Rayc said that having a table saw would be really good. Well I had 4 table saws about a year ago and I gave a really heavy one to a friend in LA, I gave a very large but portable one to a friend in Livermore (and he is willing to give it back - but someone would have to go fetch it.) Then there are the two I have here at my house in Berkeley. I am going to keep the small portable one at my house for my family's use. The one I was thinking would be good for Sudo room is a really amazing machine called a "shopsmith" 7 in one tool. We bought this second hand many years ago and because we don't have space for it we haven't used it much. It is not some thing we want to give a way. My husband and I are re-visioning our house and planning on adding a basement or something where we can do projects and make stuff. Up to now, we do our projects outside in the yard. THe radial arm saw was kept outside under a tarp for 7 years - which is why the particle board cutting surface deteriorated. Electronics probably need some tlc but the unit glides like new - just some of the other adjustments need to be lubed. Anyway, getting back to the SHOPSMITH. This would be an amazing and useful tool for Sudo to have on premise. But there are a few issues. It is a space saving tool but it takes up space. It needs space around it when it is operating - other wise it is on wheels and can be pushed over along a wall or in a corner. Second issue is that we don't want to give it away - this would be use for storage trade. In a couple years we will most likely want to move it back to our house in Berkeley. Lastly - things like bits, blades, allen wrenches would not be part of the deal. It's possible we might have one of each we could send it over with but people wanting to use the shopsmith would have to pool their money to buy these expendible items. I'd be willing to contact the corporation to see if someone could come and do a demo / training at the omni - this would be very good promotion for their product exposure. And Lastly lastly, Anyone using the tools I brought to the Omni/Sudo agrees that they do it at their own risk with absolutely no liability to me or my family. If you don't know how to use a too safely or properly - then don't use it. THe last thing you want is a bunch of your blood pooling on sudo room floor or splattered on the walls. Have an emergency plan - have emergency medical kit including tourniquet. Tools with blades, bits, spinning wheels and gears can cause serious injuries and death. I have been using power tools for over 40 years. I still have 10 fingers but if you ever wondered about that scar on my face it is from using the wrong tool for a job. I suffered that injury after 30 year of experience. That scar is a reminder to all of us who think we know what we are doing. Using the right tool for the job is a important as using a tool correctly. So the question remains - how to people feel about housing a Shopsmith 7 in one tool. Here is a link to the shopsmith homepage find out more about this tool. http://www.shopsmith.com/ I look forward to your consolidated responses - particularly the ones AGAINST housing the shopsmith at Sudo for 2 years. Alice Ps - I forgot I have a mini-table saw that is for making doll houses too! -- Alice Rosenthal Bee Happy Solutions 1837 Prince St Berkeley, CA 94703 415-272-0596

Hellaa,now fo sho

by Eddie Che

Free world renaissance. I am telling all my friends about this potential. In what I describe as the largest thing since Occupy Wall Street, is itself a massive call to action/participate. We can design the systems without money, will change how we produce things, party, program, code, interface, interact, design free and abundant factories of the future, etc. Has to do along the lines of we motivate individuals differently if we realize what we are. Realizing this we can achieve a moneyless society. And the tweet that started it off: https://twitter.com/EddieMill/status/567220659386712066 Ed Che. Detroit, Chicago, world, free movement renaissance (let's start it off).
