Notes
- Attendees: MT, AL, JW, JL, PW
- Would be good to have some sort of graph about how we are doing with money.
- The downstairs space is not that utilised. Could the function room be used for an extension of the workshop space.
- Our recommendation for downstairs
- Function room - folding tables down one side, CNC machine, workshop extension. Equipment should all be moveable.
- Front room - 3D printers, PC workstations. move member storage from upstairs to downstairs. make a desk for computers.
- Workshop - metalworking is staying in the same area, need to plan the benches and machine locations. build a partition wall to separate.
- We need to remind people selling things about the 10%.
- To progress the blacksmithing - JW brother to look over proposal, conduct some tests on noise, research planning restrictions.
- Guest wifi is working well, we should change the password for the members wifi.
