Yes. As I am currently unemployed I cannot fund any of this, so someone will 
have to cover it in advance.

Its also alright to delay this 'till the weekend if that means more folks are 
available to contribute the needed transportation and funding for equipment. 
Now that I'm remembering the work it took to redo my house a few years ago and 
how much larger noisebridge is, that might just be the best option. I somehow 
assumed that a lot of this had already been figured out :D

I heard rumors that someone has access to gallons of denatured alcohol?

I'm pretty sure we can get at least a quarter of the space sanded and cleaned 
on Thursday. It'll take at least two coats of polyurethane with around 4-6 
hours of drying time and a light sanding between coats. Considering the use of 
the floor, I'd say 3 coats total which means we're unlikely to get that far on 
Thursday.
