FYI I am putting together a 2-page spread on "Use & Care of the Noisebridge Laser Cutter" for inclusion in issue 3 of <a href="http://zine.noisebridge.net/">ZiP</a>. It will combine <a href="https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Lasercutter">previous notes</a> & updates by Alan R. with the info given by Robert & others during the "how to" infosessions, plus additional info on care of the lens, proper materials to use in the laser cutter, etc gathered from various NB luminaries.<div>
<br></div><div>I've noticed the laser cutter doesn't seem to be doing Vector work these days, only Raster....I don't know the reason for that.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Tony</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">

hi folks,<br>
<br>
my name is peter, i'm the founder of the open source science tricorder<br>
project ( <a href="http://www.tricorderproject.org" target="_blank">http://www.tricorderproject.org</a> ). i recently moved to<br>
mountain view, and i'm about to head up to the city for some vegan<br>
noms tonight (it's about 7:30, and it'll take me an hour to drive and<br>
another hour to eat), then walk over to noisebridge.<br>
<br>
i'm hoping to give an idea for a laser cut tricorder case a try, if<br>
that's okay. i've kind of been bit by creativity today.<br>
<br>
a week or two ago i had the chance to stop in, and saw that your laser<br>
cutter is almost the exact same model that i've spent many tens of<br>
hours slaving over at the hackerspace back home in Canada through the<br>
late hours of the night. i realize it's short notice, and it's a<br>
saturday night, but if there are laser folks planning to be about who<br>
could hand hold me through using your cutter, that would be wonderful.<br>
if you'd like to talk science tricorders, open pedagogy, teaching<br>
computers to learn language like babies do, vegan cooking, or other<br>
nerdyness, i'd also welcome the company.<br>
<br>
i'd love to be more a part of noisebridge. my muse would love to be<br>
there on many evenings/weekends, but that's tempered a bit by being an<br>
hours drive away.<br>
<br>
thanks! :)<br>
peter<br>
