Fwd: Berkeley collective needs someone for phone line/router connection

by Phil Wolff

Good folks seek referral... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Betsy Morris <Betsy(a)kali.com> Date: Thu, Aug 28, 2014 at 2:10 AM Subject: needing someone to phone line/router connection Raines and I share meeting space as members of the Long Haul Infoshop collective on Shattuck Ave. The collective needs someone to put in a new phone/DSL line from the outside phone box. It's currently in a very messy arrangement that was once a building wide multi-line system no longer in use or needed. The result is slow and intermittent internet and wireless There's a couple of phones, and jacks as far as I know. Can you recommend someone with professional experience and equipment, and/or do you know what the going rates are for this? Thanks!

Fwd: [omnilogistics] URGENT WORK PARTY TONIGHT, 6PM FOR BALLROOM/BASEMENT OPENING TO PUBLIC!

by yar

Sudoroom is having its regular weekly meeting tonight, but at the same time Omni folks will be having a work party to demolish & rebuild parts of the large ballroom. Please come and get involved! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Brel Froebe <brel.alexandre(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, Aug 27, 2014 at 1:51 PM Subject: [omnilogistics] URGENT WORK PARTY TONIGHT, 6PM FOR BALLROOM/BASEMENT OPENING TO PUBLIC! To: omnilogistics(a)lists.riseup.net Hello Omni Fam, Tonight at 6PM we will be having a work party to take care of some tasks that need to get done for the ballroom/basement to be legal/up to fire code/ready for SEPT. 6th! It is a considerable list, but totally do-able, especially if we have some helping hands! Below is a list of tasks to give you a sense of things. we will be going over tasks/drywall repair as a group to educate folks who may not know certain skills. it should be fun (lets make it fun!)!! If you have it, please bring crowbars/prybars/flatbars. Thanks, and please respond if you think you can make it tonight! Peace, Brel briefly, here is a list of tasks that need to get done for the ballroom to be legal/up to fire code/ready for folks on sept. 6th: *Full breakdown of ballroom tasks*: - Repair biggest hole in ballroom with drywall: the wall section on the mezzanine needs to be replaced, i already virtually completed the demo, now the drywall needs to be installed, first layer of joint compound/tape applied, then let dry and apply 2nd layer, then 3rd layer, then primed then painted. we need to still BUY the paint and have the color match the black color. -repair/patch various drywall holes/damage in the backstage area -someone needs to take pictures of the rest of the "fallen angels" around the ballroom (before painting over them) -paint adjacent walls to the wall that is being replaced (i.e. there are 4 sections that make up that mezzanine wall, 1 of them is being replaced, and we should paint all of them, as per the proposal i sent out via omnilogistics) -purchase and install "EXIT" signs for 3 exits. Must tie into electrical and I think be battery operated (Ormund, can you assist here? Are you a licensed electrician btw - just curious?) - Purchase and install the correct # of fire extinguishers -- every 75' around the room - Install panic bars on main doors from ballroom to Shattuck (both sets of double doors); remove sliding bolts. - Rent at least a 19' scissor lift - once we get approval from the delegates Thursday, remove all ceiling tiles in ballroom * (requires scissor lift) *Not related to ballroom 'fire life & safety' codes per se, but should do*: - Repair external siding (to ballroom, on south side) that is about to fall off, that is visible from the mezzanine wall described above (this is most likely the reason why that wall got damaged in the first place: water damage/exposure to the outside)* - Perhaps: remove odd piece of plywood board (suspended from trusses in front of stage) with 4x4 long pieces of wood attached to it. we should dissassemble it while we are up there. not sure what purpose it serves, but Cep thinks we should get rid of it because it is currently stuck in a way that we can't use it/move it to a usable place. it at one time may have been a platform to do lighting stuff from the ceiling beams. *In basement (also relates directly to ballroom fire life & safety, pointed out by inspector)*: -replace basement a few missing ceiling tiles; We can use the ballroom ceiling panelling for this, won't look beautiful/will be black unless we paint it, but will be functional. - lay up drywall in large ceiling hole under bathroom, put ceiling tiles on it: probably with double-sheets sheets of 5/8" (firewall) * = tasks that require a SCISSOR LIFT

Revised Electrical Plan (rev 1.1)

by Whitney Lawrence

Submitted for review. Notes: 1. SudoMesh asked for 30A service for the servers. I opted to install 20A rated outlets next to 15A outlets in 4plex boxes at plug locations A & B on two 20A breakers instead because the outlets will be "conventionally" shaped. If in fact, a 30A breaker is required then the outlets will be rated accordingly and will look more like a plug for a dryer. 2. Overhead electrical: There is an additional cost of about $250 plus labor to get this done in Phase two. I am personally not convinced of the merits of having overhead power when wall outlets are in such immediate proximity (max 15ft). 3. I would like these plans to be reviewed this week to be fully prepared for installation early next week. 4. Last weekend, Hol and I went to Home Depot to get supplies for Phase 1. I request reimbursement of $348.02 for materials. I have the receipt and will present to whomever would like a copy. That is all. -Whit

NB Reboot fundraiser: 2 hrs and less than $2k away!

by Naomi Most

Hey gang, I'm on the edge of my seat watching the minutes tick by on the Noisebridge IndieGoGo campaign, which is now within 93% of its goal. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/noisebridge-reboot-2014/x/8018376 The terms of our fundraising variant (Flexible Funding) say that we pay IndieGoGo 9% (!) if we *don't* meet our goal, and only a 4% cut if we do. https://go.indiegogo.com/pricing-fees This is going to be a stunningly close race. Help steer us to victory, where victory == giving away less of our donations to The Man -- something like $1200 less. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/noisebridge-reboot-2014/x/8018376 Just TWO HOURS left! Eep! Thanks, Naomi -- Naomi Theora Most naomi(a)nthmost.com +1-415-728-7490 skype: nthmost http://twitter.com/nthmost

Drill press and clamps

by Torrie Fischer

Hi, sudo Earlier today I was trying to use the drill press to create a hobbed bolt for Noisebridge's prusa. In the process, I broke a 5" cast-iron C-clamp that was holding the vice to the table and I also could not locate the chuck key. I am ordering a replacement 6" steel C-clamp, a universal chuck key, and an assortment of heat shrink tubing from McMaster later this week. They should be available at Sudo room by Monday at the latest, maybe earlier if they deliver on Saturday. Same day shipping FTW! If there are other things that are needed in the machine shop, please let me know and I'll throw it in with my order.
