- http://www.australiansheettraders.com.au/ has lost track of a $596.65 cash payment?
- AST disagrees, even though their books are probably out of balance
- AST delivered it to MK's work
- MK: Has the invoice here now, order# 4434 date 20140417; payment term "Net Monthly"
- We do not want a credit account, same as the rest
- MK paid it again by CC, with records passed to JM
- ACTION: JM will forward to committee
- JM called AST and complained
- MK: Fridge outside for the taking, off to limbo
- NB: Like the TV. $80. Committee: Done.
- David O'Meara
- Adrian from Trotec (laser cutters) mentioned that with the greater prevalence of laser cutters, his clients are reporting more instances of safety audits from official people. For example are activities restricted to LSO holders are performed by people that are not? and the case keys are not secured? David would also like confirmation that the electronics for the swipe card (accessible by opening the lid) does not bypass the security entirely.
- Noted
- We have documented procedures and officers on the wiki
- we were querying additional undocumented cameras in the space.
- There was a flaky one on stage, not working, removed
- CAD Room: Working, on webcams page
- Main space: Working, on webcams page
- Need to be documented, accessible, not too invasive
- JD: All cameras must be on http://artifactory.org.au/webcams/
- JD: Disagree with recording
- MK: Versus security, we have had a $150 fridge theft just recently
- BD: Message box on webcams - send messages to space
- WC: Button on webpage to disable cameras for 30mins, like aircon/dunny timer?
- David provided a written apology and visitor token to someone that visited the space and was turned off by a negative and hostile reception. Social skills are not a geek's strong point but we all reflect the space and no single person is more important than the space.
- Social corrosiveness, some abrasive
- "Nerds with beards"
- Smart people arrive at the space and feel taken down to average
- JM: We have a problem with onboarding new members: how do we formalise and do it consistently well?
- WC: Welcoming badge: you can wear it when you feel like doing it?
- JD: Badge: "Ask me questions, I won't call you stupid"
- http://enkel.co/ (through David) are using the 3D printer but will replace the spool of plastic. We should get much more back than we provide
- BD: replacement has now arrived and installed on the Up!
- can we remove the fridge safe? It prevents others restocking the fridge and provides a handy carry to remove it all at once.
- No, but subject to improvement
- Perspex trolley is a nice idea but not enforceable
- big red LC1290 RHS z axis steppers needs a fix for the tensioning bolt
- NB: has M4 bolts, spinning, has nuts on base
- MK: Still needs fixing
- we have a mouse (mice?) Please clean up food scraps
- Stick a sign on the bins, no bulk food scraps, straight to the skip, use the bin lid and bin bag for kitchen bin
- SKoT to liaise with today tonight contact re Artifactory and the DIY home Reno fad.
- Adjourn to Dimattina coffee&muffins! @12:00pm
- ACTION: MitchK: Fire extinguishers@work for us, Monday?
- ACTION: Anton: Has contact, Claude, with cheap storage crates, Middle Swan. We'd like some, please send details through
- ACTION: MitchK: email committee with some details about the roof leak so we can contact the landlord
- Above offices in remote corner, drips into AudioVault
- ACTION: NB: tell landlord
- ACTION: BD: Organise a Chimney, we have permission from the owners for whirlybird, etc. installation
- DH was going to? With piping from Galvins?
- ACTION: SKoT: NAB form, new signatories?
- ACTION: Southen, Davo, Nick: New LDAP on auth.internal.artifactory.org.au

Subject: [artifactory-core] A suggestion on training laser/swarfomat
To: artifactory-core@googlegroups.com
There has been a lot of talk lately about laser and CNC training.
I'd like to throw a suggestion out there.
These are both industrial style machines that i think would benefit from structured
training days. Probably a good 5-6 hours going through all the stages in a structured
lesson, similar to the way welding and courses I run are conducted.
And possibly with laser and CNC split over two weekends.This can also be accompanied
by handouts with picture/photo references of each stage.
I personally have been trained on laser but have since forgotten most of it.
If everyone had something to refer back to and had a decent amount of time to concentrate
on the tasks, it would probably make the operation of these machines less problematic.
Because of the time devoted by people training I don't see a problem charging for these
lessons, whatever that amount maybe. And also with an at least two week notice so
positions to attend course can be allocated, and there is clear sign up and notice for
all parties involved.

- Safety Officer - DH, deputy?
- Incident during Z datum in LC1290 - scraped fingers, could have been worse!
- Timbo, Helenzilla, MK?
- Going OK? Need a hand?
- SKoT, deputy Steven Reszegi
- Thanks David O'Meara!
- DO'M: can we legitimise the 'promotions subcommittee' reportable to the marketing and PR member (currently SKoT)?

- WC will join a promotions subcommittee
- DO'M: can I get promotions@ forwarded to my email address to reduce promotion emails channelling through info@
- David, Nick, Southen, Daniel, Brendan?
- INFRASTRUCTURE TSAR - Anton

- External drain pump cannot be turned off - locked with a dab of silicone
- David O'Meara would like the infrastructure subcommittee to require all internal projects to be documented in the wiki and if it is not documented then it doesn't exist. This would be an outline, who is involved or who to query, current status and timeframe. It is not meant to be 100% up to date but hopefully tracks half-projects. The air line is documented.
- e.g. carpark lights
- ACTION: WC: add series key padlock to gate, MK has a spare padlock?
- BR - new speakers needed
- Meg will help, how does she pay?
- JM: Clearly mark it "SPEAKERS INSERT-MY-NAME-HERE", send it to the bank account
