[Noisebridge-discuss] Visiting from Chicago 1/26-1/29, making pick and place machine

[Jake]

Jeff,

I come to noisebridge regularly and I would love to see your designs for a 
pick&place machine.  I have done some work toward making it easy to fab 
circuitboards at home and at noisebridge.  I can show you what i've got.

your pick&place project seems very promising, i know the software can be 
the hardest part of something like this!  I might just build a version of 
your hardware for noisebridge.

you can contact me any time you think you'll be able to make it to the 
space, and i'll come down there to let you in and give you a tour of 
everything interesting there.

welcome to SF! (when you get here)

I’m going to be in the Bay Area for an electronics design
conference<http://designcon.com/santaclara/> 1/26-1/29.
While I'm in town, I would like to get input on the machine, see your
space, and meet folks doing automated manufacturing projects.


Let me know if you want to meet up and what time would be best to stop by
the space.
