[Noisebridge-discuss] reception and the Nb-cupcake cnc

[Danny O'Brien]

This is great, Miloh. I think the reception area has a lot of potential, and
sticking a makerbot right there is a great addition...

I was working on a couple of things in the reception area before I wandered
off to NY  -- I'll see how much has survived and continue to hack on it.
