== Status ==
2018-11-03: Perfect working condition. Cut 60 square feet today.

== Authorization ==

Viral. Any authorized user can train and authorize another. Record authorizations on this wiki page, below. At the moment there are no regularly scheduled authorization sessions. Contact/ask an authorized user or the area host.

== Tips on how to use (After Authorized) ==

The user guide is here
[https://www.proworldinc.com/skin/frontend/cls/proworld/pdf/jagII.pdf]

See a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjMWrVCrecA&t=520s Useful Video]

== Loading Media ==

* Raise the lever on the upper back right of the machine
* Slide in the media. It helps to have a rectangular piece so the machine can recognize the size. Center it over some of the grooved rollers so they are as close to the edges as possible.
* Slide the pinch rollers from behind over the grooved roller you chose.
* Lower roller with the lever.
* Read the display and push the arrow button for the type of media you are loading. For a single sheet (not a roll), for example you would press the right arrow (see screen shot below)

Note: It determines the width of the media by the placement of the two outer rollers:[[File:Vinyl Cutter Roller Media Width Sensor.jpeg|thumb|right|100px|Width Sensor]]

== Importing ==

The Software used is CoCut Standard 2015. We no longer use the software that came with the cutter.

The software does import svg or ai files. One thing to be careful with svg is to set your document settings to 96 DPI. This way exporting from your editing software then importing to CoCut Pro will maintain actual physical size.

Notes:

* Make sure to check any files you download from the internet for hidden artifacts
* Make sure all your borders/strokes are set to 0px or you will get 3 cuts for the border (inner stroke, outer stroke and object edge)

== Cutting ==

When your graphic is ready to cut, click the File -> Output menu. This will bring up the "Output to device" window.

Things you need to set on this window:
* Make sure "Settings via comm" is turned on via machine settings.TODO: Need to lookup the actual setting name.
* Pressure: Good starting point is 30g or 1oz
* Speed: Good starting point is 10cm/s or 4in/s
* Material Width: Click "Read Material" button. See [[Loading Media]]
* Material Length: Click "Read Material" button. See [[Loading Media]]
* Overcut: Good starting point is 0.25mm or 0.01in

Do Preview your cut because depending on your setting the cut layout is not necessary exactly what you laid out in the svg file. Note also that in the preview you can rearrange the layout, including duplicating, rotating, or removing cuts.

Note:

The output settings for speed and pressure can be set on the machine itself.
* Turn off "Settings via comm" TODO: Need to lookup the actual setting name.
* Take the cutter offline (hit on/off line button)
* Hit the speed or pressure button
* Use arrow keys to change value
* Hit enter
* Put the cutter online by hitting the on/off line button a second time

=== Blades ===

There are 3 types of blade for the cutter:

* Black Cap - Fine detail cutting - http://www.signtechnologies.net/catalogue/341/8/cutters-and-plotters/P-gcc-jaguar-ii-cutting-plotter
* Green Cap - Sandblasted/reflective materials - http://www.signtechnologies.net/catalogue/84/8/cutters-and-plotters/blades/P-gcc-blade-green-cap-for-sandblastreflective-material
* Red Cap - Standard Vinyl - http://www.signtechnologies.net/catalogue/83/8/cutters-and-plotters/blades/P-gcc-blade-red-cap-for-standard-vinyl

These blades will be arriving shortly.

== Purchasing Materials ==

New Materials can be purchased locally through [http://www.raycosignsupply.com/vinyl-material Rayco] near Peterson and Pulaski, the plotter size is 24 inches. Generally you are on your own for materials; if you use the materials that are near the cutter, it is fair game, and it would be cool if you put some money in the nearby gray donation box or ask the area host how to contribute. Area hosts use donations to buy more materials and parts for machines. Suggested donation $1/square foot?
* Economy/Intermediary stock is for the majority of projects and has an expected life of 3 years
* High performance stock is intended for cars and boats and has an expected life of 7 years.

Lyn:

Space at PS1 is divided up into Hosted Areas. Each Hosted Area has an Area Host you can contact for information for projects, equipment authorization and suggesting improvements to the space. Any area not specifically allocated to another area is controlled by the General Area Host. There are currently nine official hosted areas at PS:One. The Tool Cage Hosted Area has been deleted, and the tools that used to be held there are now under the control of the various other areas.

See [[Area Hosts and Volunteer Positions Policy]] for more information on Area Hosts.

See [[Volunteer Positions]] for a list of other Volunteer Positions.

== Resources for Area Hosts ==
* [[Purchasing Standards]]

== Area Host Expectations ==
The organization critically depends on our area hosts and the quality of your service is a major factor in the experience of our members and the overall atmosphere of the space. The following are the duties and expectations of your area host position:

=== In general ===
* You are an ambassador of the space. We expect you to make yourself familiar with and abide by our policies and to hold yourself to the highest standards of being excellent to others. Your behavior sets an example for the entire membership.
* Explain and lead TidySpace policy for your area.
* Prior to authorizing anyone on any equipment, ask about membership, ID check by two board members and liability waiver. Do not authorize anyone who hasn’t completed all three.
* Do not give the door code to anyone. Members get the door code when the membership process is completed.
* If you authorize a non-member to use tools per section (i) of https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Authorization_Policy that person must fill out a volunteer agreement form. The form must be signed by you as well as the non-member. This form must be sent to info@pumpingstationone.org prior to any non-member tool use. (This is for insurance reasons. A link to this form will be provided when it is complete.)

=== For the area ===
* Post contact information for yourself and the area volunteers.
* Set rules and authorization processes and document them on the area wiki page.
* Establish a TidySpace Wut Zone for your area
* Provide TidySpace parking tickets (yellow, red and green)
* Post the rules or a link to the rules or a link to the rules in the area. They should include the following:
** Safety rules.
** How and where for material and project storage.

=== Duties ===
* Ensure a clean and safe workspace.
* Expedite tool maintenance and repair when necessary.
* Facilitate the authorization process, working closely with volunteer authorizers.
* Label, document and organize tools and available equipment.
* Report area needs and concerns to the board.
* Post all receipts to info@pumpingstationone.org within 30 days.
* Maintain an up to date record of area spending.
* Keep the area wiki page up to date.

=== What you can expect from the board ===
* We will take your concerns seriously and will work with you to try and resolve them.
* We will consider creating a temporary replacement position if you need to be absent for an extended period of time.
* We will work with you to make sure you have the volunteer authorizer help the area needs.
* We will seek your input when we are considering making changes to volunteer authorizer positions in your area.
* We will strive to promptly process reimbursements and refilling of Pex cards upon receiving proper documentation.

300 Seconds of fame

2017-06-14T02:12:53Z

Lyn: /* 'June 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-06-14T01:35:26Z

Lyn: /* = 'June 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-06-14T01:26:18Z

Lyn: /* = 'June 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-06-14T01:24:57Z

Lyn: /* 'June 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-06-14T01:16:11Z

Lyn: /* 2017 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-05-10T02:28:48Z

Lyn: /* 'May 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-05-10T01:59:23Z

Lyn: /* Next 300SoF */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-05-05T20:49:06Z

Lyn: /* 'April 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-05-05T20:48:20Z

Lyn: /* 'May 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-05-05T20:47:52Z

Lyn: /* Past 300SoF */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-05-05T20:47:22Z

Lyn: /* 'May 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.

300 Seconds of fame

2017-04-12T01:47:29Z

Lyn: /* 'April 2017' */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

== Resources for Area Hosts ==
* [[Purchasing Standards]]

== Area Host Expectations ==
The organization critically depends on our area hosts and the quality of your service is a major factor in the experience of our members and the overall atmosphere of the space. The following are the duties and expectations of your area host position:

=== In general ===
* You are an ambassador of the space. We expect you to make yourself familiar with and abide by our policies and to hold yourself to the highest standards of being excellent to others. Your behavior sets an example for the entire membership.
* Prior to authorizing anyone on any equipment, ask about membership, ID check by two board members and liability waiver. Do not authorize anyone who hasn’t completed all three.
* Do not give the door code to anyone. Members get the door code when the membership process is completed.
* If you authorize a non-member to use tools per section (i) of https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Authorization_Policy that person must fill out a volunteer agreement form. The form must be signed by you as well as the non-member. This form must be sent to info@pumpingstationone.org prior to any non-member tool use. (This is for insurance reasons. A link to this form will be provided when it is complete.)

=== For the area ===
* Post contact information for yourself and the area volunteers.
* Set rules and authorization processes and document them on the area wiki page.
* Post the rules or a link to the rules or a link to the rules in the area. They should include the following:
** Safety rules.
** How and where for material and project storage.

=== Duties ===
* Maintain a clean and safe workspace.
* Expedite tool maintenance and repair when necessary.
* Facilitate the authorization process, working closely with volunteer authorizers.
* Document and organize tools and available equipment.
* Report area needs and concerns to the board.
* Post all receipts to info@pumpingstationone.org within 30 days.
* Maintain an up to date record of area spending.
* Keep the area wiki page up to date.

=== What you can expect from the board ===
* We will take your concerns seriously and will work with you to try and resolve them.
* We will consider creating a temporary replacement position if you need to be absent for an extended period of time.
* We will work with you to make sure you have the volunteer authorizer help the area needs.
* We will seek your input when we are considering making changes to volunteer authorizer positions in your area.
* We will strive to promptly process reimbursements and refilling of Pex cards upon receiving proper documentation.

Member Storage Registry

2017-03-29T02:24:37Z

Lyn: /* Locker Registry */

Full Members are allowed storage space, and may claim an unoccupied, unclaimed member storage locker or member storage shelf. A locker or shelf could be empty but still be claimed/occupied. Label your shelf or locker adequately.

If you find something on this page that seems inaccurate, Please contact the affected member or the General Area Host. Please do not edit other members' entries.

'''You should use the same name here that you have listed on [https://members.pumpingstationone.org the members site] so that we can verify your membership status. This will help you avoid your storage space getting ticketed and you having to do something about it later.'''

== Shelf Registry ==

Numbering starts with the upper left shelf and goes down, then across. The top row is ignored because the opening is too obstructed to be used.

300 Seconds of fame

2017-03-15T02:49:10Z

Lyn: /* Next 300SoF */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

300 Seconds of fame

2017-03-15T02:17:05Z

Lyn: /* March 2017 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-03-15T02:16:40Z

Lyn: /* February 2017 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-03-15T02:15:44Z

Lyn: /* 2017 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-03-15T02:15:06Z

Lyn: /* 2017 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-03-15T02:14:17Z

Lyn: /* 2017 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2017-03-15T02:13:16Z

Lyn: /* Past 300SoF */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

Epilog 30w Mini 24 Laser Engraver

== Status ==

* Now: as of 12/24/2016 Broken, displays the error "Disabled: x axis". Due to winter holidays, repair has been delayed. Hopefully will be updated on Jan 3rd.

The Epilog uses the inline exhaust fan through the roof, the switch for that is wired into a box on an orange extension cord; the fume extractor is not currently being used with the laser. You must use air assist (compressed air) and the exhaust fan whenever you use the laser.

[[Epilog/Epilog service notes]] - please note any service, repairs, or adjustments you make to the machine.

== Usage Policy ==

The laser cutter is easily one of the most used machines at PS1. Due to this demand we request the cooperation of all members to share the laser cutter and associated computer. First and foremost, the practice "being excellent" should be observed at all times; respect yourself, other members, and the equipment. This is a usage policy so that everyone can use the laser:

* Any user not actively test cutting or cutting will cede the computer and laser to the next person waiting in line, as soon as that waiting user notifies the current computer user. If you are still designing your file, please do so on another computer. Artastic (another PC upstairs) in the Crafts Area also has a copy of Adobe Illustrator.
* If someone is waiting in line to use the laser, no active test cut or cut series shall be longer than 1 hour. No jobs will be allowed to start that overrun the 1 hour time limit when a new user is waiting.
* In the case that your last cut is longer than the 1 hour time limit, and a waiting user presents themselves after the cut has started, the cut job shall be allowed to finish and the waiting user will be allowed to set up their file in their own user account, during the cutting period.
* Continuous cutting shall not exceed 3 consecutive hours without a half hour break for the laser to cool. If a new user arrives before or during the cooling period the current user shall cede the laser to the next user, and the next user will wait for the cooling period to finish and the cooling period shall not count towards the 1 hours limit should another user present themselves.
* Waiting users shall notify the current user verbally that they are waiting and where they will be waiting until it is their turn. If multiple users are waiting, the next waiting user must start their test cutting or cut job within 10 minutes of being notified of a laser opening. The current user will keep a record of who is waiting, where they will be, and notify subsequent users of the status of the queue. The current user will find the next waiting user and verbally inform them that the laser is available.

=== Additional Ways to be Excellent ===
* Have your artwork and your materials prepared and ready ahead of time. Artastic (another PC upstairs) in the Crafts Area has a copy of Adobe Illustrator.
* Allow people to start setting up their job after your last cut starts running. If you're concerned about a last minute adjustment, you can use Window's switch user feature to keep your file available.
* If there is someone waiting, get their phone number to text them, if possible. Texting allows you to give them a heads up so they can start setting up their job without you leaving the laser are. (Leaving the laser running unattended is against the rules.) It also spares you from having to physically track down the other user.

== Table Saw Note! ==
Items that have been cut on the laser cutter have the potential to set off the SawStop table saw safety brake. This will make the saw unusable until the SawStop cartridge is replaced, which costs ~ $75! It typically happens if there is an excess of carbon char on the edges.

Before use the SawStop to cut anything from the laser cutter please test the piece on the edge of the blade when the blade is not turning and see if it activates a red light on the display. How do you do this.
# Turn on the main power switch to the Sawstop.
# DO NOT TURN ON THE BLADE. THE BLADE must not be moving.
# Check and see if the green light is on the front of the saw.
# Slide the piece you want to cut up to and contact the blade.
# Look at the lights on the front of the SawStop. If it is green you should be OK to proceed. If its red. DO NOT CUT. IT WILL TRIGGER THE BRAKE.

You can try to sand off the char and repeat steps 1-5 or use another method to cut these pieces.

== Top Eight ==
* Don't use the autofocus, because it could burn out a motor.
* Don't cut materials that will ignite or emit dangerous fumes (any chlorinated plastic like PVC, for example). See section below.
* Always use the exhaust fan/always use the air assist on vector cuts.
* You must stay with the job; don't walk away. Things could catch on fire, that would suck.
* Sometimes it's a pain to get the right driver working.
* Do not attempt to service the machine yourself unless you've cleared it with the CNC Area Host
* Do not touch any settings in the Config menu on the machine itself
* Do not touch any settings in the Maint menu on the machine itself '''''except''''' you may use Maint/1/Return Home to reset the cutting head to the machine's default origin (<.015" inside the top left corner as of 8/8/15)
* This should be obvious, but do not press hard or put heavy objects in the cutter. Abusing the bed supports WILL bend them and make the bed impossible to level.

== Authorization ==

Authorization for the laser is not viral. There are a few authorized trainers, though, and fairly frequent authorizations. Currently (as of Jan 2016) authorizations will appear on the calendar, but are not planned much more than 2 weeks in advance. See below for list of authorized users and link to authorized trainers. Post on the Google Group email list; look for a recent thread about laser authorizations and post there.

Experiment with [[Laser settings]] to find the lowest possible power and highest possible speed to get clean vector cuts. The new optics and tube (as of December 2014) can cut many organic materials with a minimum of charring.

== Ventilation ==

'''Always''' turn on the exhaust fan using the switch located in the silver box to the left of the machine.

== Air assist ==

Turn on the air assist by turning the silver knob on the regulator located on the red bracket attached to the wall behind the machine. The pressure regulator has no adjustable settings. It is either on or off.

Air assist is used for vector cutting to have nice traces and avoid your material to burn. However some people like to have it disabled for raster jobs.

Turn air assist off when you've finished and you don't need it while doing your settings.

Check the regulator for accumulated water from time to time. Place a container (and maybe some paper towels) under the regulator and vent accumulated water from the bottom using the small petcock. If too much water accumulates in the regulator, it may flow through the air hose and into the machine, spraying onto the bed/material.

== Finishing up ==

Leave the machine running as you pack up - the laser tube is air cooled by fans. Leaving the fans running after your job is done will help cool it off and make it last longer. The last thing to do before you walk away from the machine is to turn it off.

Please leave the machine and the surrounding area cleaner than you found it by emptying the crumb tray below the cutting table, picking up cutouts, and vacuuming up any acrylic dust you made. While you're waiting on the laser is a good time to grab a shop vac and clean the vicinity.

== Troubleshooting ==

Under construction.

== '''NEVER CUT THESE MATERIALS''' ==

* '''PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride):''' Also known as '''"vinyl"''' '''"pleather"''' or '''"artificial leather."''' Most adhesive vinyl shelf paper (e.g. Con-Tact Paper) also is PVC. Emits HCl and nasty chlorinated compounds when cut! Don't ever cut this material as it will ruin the optics, cause the metal of the machine to corrode, and ruin the motion control system.
* '''Polycarbonate:''' Also known as '''"Lexan."''' Polycarbonate is also often found as flat, sheet material. The case cover window on the laser cutter is made of Polycarbonate because polycarbonate strongly absorbs infrared radiation! This is the frequency of light the laser cutter uses to cut materials, so it is very ineffective at cutting polycarbonate. Polycarbonate can also emit flame and chlorine gas when cut, making it a poor choice for laser cutting.

* '''HDPE:''' "milk bottle" plastic. It melts. It gets gooey. It catches on fire. Don't use it.
* '''PolyStyrene Foam:''' It catches fire, it melts, and only thin pieces cut. This is the #1 material that causes laser fires!!!
* '''Fiberglass:''' The epoxy resin used in fiberglass is bad to cut, the vapor/fumes of the epoxy resin are bad. The fiberglass mat itself, without resin, is safe to cut.
* '''Coated Carbon Fiber:''' Thin carbon fiber mat can be cut, with some fraying. However, once coated with epoxy it will emit noxious fumes.
* Silhouette '''magnet paper''' (sold by Inventables by example): it likely contains chlorine. Emits HCl and nasty chlorinated compounds when cut! Don't ever cut this material as it will ruin the optics, cause the metal of the machine to corrode, and ruin the motion control system.
* '''PTFE:''', also known as '''Teflon''' or any fluorinated polymer it will releases nasty fluorinated compounds (bad for you) and sublimate then deposit on the lenses (likely destroying them).
* '''Gator foam''': foam core gets burned and eaten away compared to the top and bottom hard paper shell. Not a fantastic thing to cut, but it can be cut if watched. And the MSDS sheet says it may produce hydrogen bromide and hydrogen chloride known to degrade the optics and mechanic of the cutter
* Any other plastic with "Chlor" or "Fluor" in the name, for the same reasons as PVC and PTFE above.

== '''Test for material''' ==

Some people came up with an easy protocol to help identify unknown polymers: [http://www.nycresistor.com/2008/08/28/how-to-identify-polymers-with-burnination/ Nyc Resistor - how to identify polymers with burnination]. We don't know how reliable it is. And we can't but recommend to do that under good ventilation (outside?)

== Use Caution With These Materials ==
* '''ABS:''' ABS does not cut well in a laser cutter. It tends to melt rather than vaporize, and has a higher chance of catching on fire and leaving behind melted gooey deposits on the vector cutting grid. It also does not engrave well (again, tends to melt). ABS emits hydogen cyanide when burned. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylonitrile_butadiene_styrene

== Safe Materials ==
The laser can cut or etch. The materials that the laser can cut materials like wood, paper, cork, and some kinds of plastics. Etching can be done on almost anything, wood, cardboard, anodized aluminum, plastic, marble, stone, tile, and glass.
* Cutting
** Many woods up to 1/4" thick. Engineered woods like MDF are okay to use but may experience a higher amount of charring when cut. Be very careful about cutting oily woods, or very resinous woods as they also may catch fire. Natural wood can be cut or engraved, but varies in density in a single piece; results will vary across the workpiece.
** Paper cuts very very well on the laser cutter, and also very quickly. Thin paper and single layer card stock and cardboard are perfectly OK. Thicker cardboard, carton, and other papers also cut very well but need to be watched to make sure they don't catch fire.
** Cork cuts nicely, but the quality of the cut depends on the thickness and quality of the cork. Engineered cork has a lot of glue in it, and may not cut as well. Cork thicker than 1/4" should be avoided.
** Cast acrylic (also known as Lucite, Plexiglas, PMMA) cuts extremely well on the laser cutter, leaving a beautifully polished edge. With care, acrylic material up to 1/2" thick can be cut on the laser cutter. Extruded acrylic cuts less well and etches even worse. It tends to melt and puddle rather than vaporize.
** Delrin (POM) in thin sheets cuts and engraves very well. Delrin comes in a number of shore strengths (hardness) and the harder delrin tends to work better. Great for gears! It is possible to deeply engrave Delrin to make dies for embossing paper and leather.
** Kapton tape (Polyimide) : Works well, in thin sheets and strips like tape. 1/16" thick is about as thick as you can cut reliably.
** Mylar : Works well if it's thin. Once you get too far past 1/16" thick mylar has a tendency to warp, bubble, and curl. Gold coated mylar will not work.
** Solid Styrene : Smokes a lot when cut, but can be cut. Keep it thin (1/16")
** Depron foam: Used a lot for hobby, RC aircraft, architectural models, and toys. 1/4" cuts nicely, with a smooth edge. Must be constantly monitored when cutting.
** Cloth (leather, suede, felt, hemp, cotton, polyester, but NEVER vinyl or pleather-- see above) They all cut well. Leather is very hard to cut, but can be if it's thinner than a belt (call it 1/8")
** Magnetic Sheet material cuts beautifully (make SURE it does NOT contain chlorine, see above)
** NON-CHLORINE containing rubber is fine for cutting. Natural rubber engraves but leaves a dark sticky residue that doesn't affect stamps if the piece is engraved deeply enough.
** Carbon fiber mats/weave that has not yet had epoxy applied can be cut, very slowly. You must not cut carbon fiber that has been coated!!
* Etching: all the above can be etched, in some cases very deeply. In addition, you can etch:
** Glass (green seems to work best) .. looks sandblasted. Only FLAT GLASS can be engraved in our cutter. No round or cylindrical items.
** Ceramic tile
** Anodized aluminum ( vaporizes the anodization away )
** Painted/coated metals ( vaporizes the paint away )
** Stone : Marble, Granite, Soapstone, Onyx. Gets a white "textured" look when etched
* Marking
There is an expensive coating called 'cermark'. This marking compound costs $100 for a small bottle, and must be diluted with ethanol and applied to metal (not ceramics or stone) before being etched to leave behind a permanent dark black mark.

== Notes on Software Compatibility ==

Adobe Illustrator and the epilog drivers don't always work great together. If you're experiencing any of the following, there is a simple fix:

# Job runs, but it's an empty run. Laser head moves once then completes, even though raster vs vector is correctly configured and stokes are set to 0.072pt.
# Updating the media size in the epilog print driver does not update the size in Illustrator's print dialog, unless you reopen settings and press 'OK' in epilog again another time or two.
# Open pressing print in Illustrator, you get a message about "nothing to print in selected layers" or similar.
# Media size entered in epilog driver is read as the reverse by Illustrator (e.g. 24x12 is seen as 12x24 by Illustrator)

It seems epilog's driver doesn't play nicely with Illustrator, and Illustrator interfaces with the print driver a lot because it micromanages a lot of things.
If your document is saved as a .AI with PDF compatibility, simply right-click your AI file and open with Adobe Reader instead of Adobe Illustrator, and print from there.

Adobe Reader has a much more "dumbed down" print dialog that just works with Epilog's driver. You don't have to resave your .AI as .PDF, as Adobe Reader can read .AI files saved in compatibility mode (that's the default).

== Rotary Attachment ==

'''NB: Always return the machine back to the default configuration with a cutting bed after use.'''

=== Installing Attachment ===

'''Do not attempt to install the rotary attachment without ensuring that the cutting head AND autofocus plunger will clear it. It is extremely easy to damage the autofocus plunger and/or crash the head in the Y dimension, which will burn the motor out and make a lot of people sad.'''

# Turn machine on
# Disable X/Y
# Open front cover
# Lower bed almost to the bottom of the machine while still allowing the catch tray to be removed
# '''Turn machine off''' NOT TURNING IT OFF CAN DAMAGE/DESTROY THE ELECTRONICS.
# Flip up rulers and remove cutting bed
# Remove slide out catch tray
# Install the attachment locating it in the 3 holes in the bottom of the bed '''DO NOT CONNECT PLUG YET'''
# Make sure the Y axis will clear the top of the attachment, if it will not turn the machine on and lower the bed further making sure to turn it off afterwards
# Connect the attachment cable to the connector in the back of the bed
# Turn the machine on - the machine will zero home over the top of the attachment

Reverse steps to uninstall.

=== Usage notes ===

* '''DO NOT USE AUTO FOCUS'''
* 0,0 is '''TOP LEFT'''
* Y axis is wrapped around the piece
* Set Y size to circumference of piece - measure with soft tape or string/ribbon/etc
* Make sure to set print size in driver to same as art board in illustrator

== Known issues ==

=== Can't login ===

==== The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed ====

* main page [[The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed]]
** Might be fixed now
** Occasional workaround: reboot

==== I was certified a long time ago ====

You need to
# Be a Current Member
# Have a https://members.pumpingstationone.org account
# Talk to a recommended certifier, The area host, or email info@pumpingstationone.org

You may be asked to get recertified.

==== Front door interlock broken ====

The front door interlock has two reed switches. The one on the right isn't being activated by the factory magnet so it currently has an additional magnet on the inside of the machine, right to the left of the switch

== List of Currently Certified Users ==

This list is hugely incomplete because nobody was doing it. Someone should fix that eventually... for now, new certs should go in here. If you are certified and remember who certified you, go ahead and add yourself. Your non-presence on this list is not intended to insult you or your relatives.

300 Seconds of fame

2016-12-14T03:44:33Z

Lyn: /* December 2016 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

300 Seconds of fame

2016-12-14T03:44:04Z

Lyn: /* December 2016 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2016-12-14T02:02:33Z

Lyn: /* December 2016 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

2017 Administrative Budget Vote

2016-11-28T20:43:19Z

Lyn: /* Language */

Back to [[2017 Budget]].

==THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS==

== Sponsors ==
* [[User:justin|Justin T. Conroy]]

== History ==
* Mailing List Announcement: ???
* Officially Proposed: ???
* Voted on: ???

== Background ==
The purpose of this vote is (1 to authorize the Board to spend money on normal administrative expenses not already authorized by the bylaws, and (2) to ensure there is an emergency fund set aside for extenuating circumstances.

Expenditures such as rent and utilities (and a few other things) are already approved by the bylaws for the board to spend, so this vote does not cover those. They are included in the background information to inform the amounts we are actually voting on.

=== Administrative Expenses ===
This is a breakdown of the predicted administrative expenses that are already allowed by the bylaws and won’t be voted on in this vote. It is placed here for illustrative purposes only. The other section, titled Unapproved Administrative Expenses, is for things that are not already discussed in the bylaws and will be part of this vote language.

300 Seconds of fame

2016-11-09T01:28:32Z

Lyn: /* November 2016 */

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.

== How can I attend? ==

Just show up!

300 Seconds of fame

2016-10-09T08:33:53Z

Lyn:

2nd Tuesdays of each month at PS:One, you! yes YOU! get to hear your fellow members, geeks, and other associated community-minded people present to whoever wants to show up, but only for 300 seconds apiece.

You've got five minutes. Use it wisely.

== What is it? ==

300 Seconds of Fame (300SoF) is a combination/alteration of PS:One's separate [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/lightning-talks-at-pumping-station-one/ lightning talks] and [http://pumpingstationone.org/2009/11/pechakucha-night-at-psone/ Pecha Kucha night], taking in elements from [https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Five_Minutes_of_Fame Noisebridge's Five Minutes of Fame], which in turn is an adaptation of CCC's Lightning Talks. The idea is that we hold about an hour's worth of 5 minute open mic slots. You can run shorter, but not longer, than five minutes.

Within those parameters, what is it? Glad you asked.

It can be a presentation, a musical number, a demonstration, a debate, a run-through of a proof of concept, performance art, live circuit bending, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Will it fit into five minutes, be feasible for the space, and be appreciated by an audience? Go for it.

== When and Where does it happen? ==

Second Tuesday of every month after the 8pm meeting at PS:One.

== Why are we doing this? ==

* Easy way to find out what's going on at PS:One -- no need to sit through long lectures.
* Some people are working on projects that are not ready for a full 30 minute or hour long talk, but they want to get their ideas out. Maybe they need help; maybe they want to propose an idea to the PS:One community.
* Some people are shy about public speaking and want to practice without giving an "official" conference talk, which can be daunting. This is a great way to try it out in a community of peers.
* These days, many of us are becoming entrepreneurs to one extent or another. If you're trying to sell your idea to someone, you need to be able to explain it in five minutes or less.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discordianism#Law_of_Fives "The Law of Fives"]

== How can I participate? ==

Easy - sign up to give a talk! Contact Justin (`justin on irc OR justin (at) conroy dot in) or add your talk to the "Next" section below.

Include your name (or handle) and talk title, as well as whether or not you'll need projector access.
