[Noisebridge-discuss] Board of the Knowing

[Corey McGuire]

Anyone have access to Techshop?  I have a BIG F'N HUNK of mild steal,
3/16th's thick, that plasma cuts like butta.  I can draw up a path for the
CNC plasma cutter and we can cut a 50 pound Noisebridge logo or whatever.

I need this hunk of metal out of my house, so this is as good a purpose as
any.
