Heyall,

Many or most CCLers will likely be away to MIT for this weekend but if you are around and are planning to use the wet lab this weekend note that the sitdown space will be rearranged and taken over by this 3D printer workshop all day Saturday and Friday eve for setup.

We expect it to all be cleaned up and back to normal arrangement by late Sat for regular use on Sunday.

If you plan on using the wet lab Sat please be aware that you may have to work around some inconvenience...

Thanks Ken

This Saturday, come join us for a whole day workshop (8am to 8pm!) on building a 3D printer at Counter Culture Labs, with some of the folks from Open Source Ecology. 

Build the open source 3D Printer with the lowest part count in the world. Learn about 3D Printing with step-by-step guidance in a supportive environment.

To support Counter Culture Labs, this workshop hosted by Open Source Ecology is $10 recommended, but no one turned away due to lack of funds and free to participate (please register using the link below). Walk-ins are very welcome, especially if you're curious and want to swing by for a few hours or less -- Open Source Ecology wants to share something new and impressive with you. Register for FREE here: https://microfactory.opensourceecology.org/portfolio/1-day-3d-printer-workshop-october27-oakland-ca/

We’ll show you step-by-step how to build this modular design in an accessible and straightforward way. You’ll appreciate how an open source 3d printer is designed and experience how teams can work together to build something amazing, even if they’re novices. Each team takes a 3D printer home to their community that they can use to build community-scale infrastructure or make 3D printed objects.

To take a printer home, the price is $799. Compared with other open source 3D printers, ours can be built with off-the-shelf parts and our part count is half the others, making it easier to understand, build, and maintain. Because it is part of the Global Village Construction Set (for more info, please watch our founder's TED talk here: https://www.ted.com/talks/marcin_jakubowski), the OSE 3D printer is designed to scale and handle industrial production, which means if you want to some day build a 3 foot printer, this is the printer for you. Additionally, every CAD design of the 3D printer is available in its entirety, so if you want to change out printer heads to print something other than PLA or ABS plastic, our design makes this process significantly easier, especially because we have a 300 page manual to support builders and a process to continually improve documentation.

Claim your 3D printer TODAY for 1 of 2 possible builds by registering here: https://microfactory.opensourceecology.org/portfolio/1-day-3d-printer-workshop-october27-oakland-ca/

Schedule
The event runs 8am-8pm. Specific timing depends significantly on how we progress as a group but generally we follow a timeline like this:

8am: Introduction. Applications of the 3D Printer Construction Set.
9am: Morning Build Session
12pm: Break
1pm: Afternoon Build Session
5pm: Break
6pm: Printer Calibration & First Prints
7pm: Review and Learning Discussion
8pm: Event ends

Special Offer
Registration secures your placement in this workshop to build and take home a 3D Printer. Participants are welcome to bring along one or more persons to share in the educational experience and assist the build for no extra cost. The workshop is a fast-paced collaborative experience and goes well with many helping hands!
