- Attendees: BlakeS, NickB, FletcherB, Beau

- Possible rearrangement of machines for combined ducting and chiller stacking
- We'd still like red dot beam combiners, which would render getting a tube that has a built in aiming beam moot

- Fletcher: Recommends crowdfunding it at https://finance.artifactory.org.au/
