Project Plans: -
- achievement awards for hackers
- gentle path for acquiring skills
- "You have unlocked a new achievement"
- badges, certificates, icons!
- laser induction
- woodworking tools induction
- sewing/knitting machine
- welding and metalwork
- circuit design and etch-tank
- skateboard wheel lathe
- Totally ghetto - easily done: silverfishlongboarding forum post
- shoe repair - glues, heavy duty sewing, sugru, bicycle tyres
- put wheels on things!
- Inappropriate Technology
- bike trailer
- car trailer
- like the ones my dad made
- steel angle from bed frames

- http://www.indespension.co.uk/b2c/app/I00660?ZSUBCO=033&Z1MACO=181&PGMN35=005&slnk=1
- I think these original Mini ones are the thing: http://www.indespension.co.uk/b2c/app/I00080?PNUM35=SH012&slnk=1
- submarine
- ERTs
- http://www.gai-tronics.org.uk/products/ert.htm
- stick a PC at the base of each and tap into its serial comms
- build a SIP phone from one end of the HackSpace to the other with the two phones perhaps mounted outside the front and back doors!
Fabrication - object printing
- T-shirt printing
- Culture references
- "Outside Context Problem"
- "Special Circumstances"
- "I can't believe it's not better"
- Laser cutting
- CNC machine
- MyDIYCNC
- Martin's CNC machine
- 3d Printing with RepReap
- just laser printing
- circuit board etching
First use of laser cutter: -
- Veralite board 3 dingdongs of the power dial and speed of? melty
IRC Bots
http://www.jibble.org/pircbot.php
Various AI
Logging and statting
Who's in web indicator
Hackspace is ON/OFF web indicator
TODO

- New base, new alu motor brackets
- Motors: test drive commands with PWM enable line - power from AA batt pack
- test MICRO LED
- volume control from command line sudo /etc/acpi/voldownbtn.sh ??
- shutdown eeePC from command line "sudo shutdown now"
- IP publish with wget
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situation_calculus
- test voice recognition
- new Java code on eeepc: add Mapping class
- choose a grid size and calculate the requirements for navigating the Hackspace - could do dynamic map and discovery

I have a 2N3704 transistor (rather than a 2N3904) so the Base, Collector, and Emitter of this NPN are in different locations...

- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_junction_transistor#NPN
I also have a regular 2xAA battery holder which somebody has hacked and is slightly melted on one side! I will use this as a single AA battery holder. So my toroid centre tap goes to battery +ve.
Project first build complete (with on/off switch) - upload pictures to the various feeds. Plan a build.
Festivus Plans
The Feats of Strength
- PowerBall challenge
- Single Hand Balance
- press-ups
- full contact twister
Stairway lighting
Sign: -
Don't get left in the dark!
The stair lighting automatically switches off after a while so...
Press the button before you go up or down the stairs (so you don't get stuck half-way!)
