Hi folks,

At Monty's suggestion, we agreed to start having every-other-week meetings, starting Monday November 16 at 7pm, at Techshop in Beaverton, in their meeting room. This coming Monday is the second such meeting.

What is the purpose of this meeting? Good question! I think it is to get together to work on projects while offering help and getting help from others. I won't be teaching classes or giving a lecture, though if others want to, feel free. There is no agenda.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A TECHSHOP MEMBER TO ATTEND THESE MEETINGS, though you do need to be a member to use their equipment -- except for the following caveat.

Monty, correct me if I'm wrong, but, I believe you said that the Open Tech Space corner at TechShop IS available to non-TechShop members, which is awesome. This gives you access to test equipment, soldering stations, and work benches. Do you have any other input on this, Monty?

We'll probably stay until 8pm, perhaps longer if enough people show up and there is staff on hand. See: http://www.portlandtechshop.com/ for details about TechShop, including a map. And: http://opentechspace.org/about/ for details about Open Tech Space.

The address is: 10100 SW Allen Blvd., Beaverton, OR 97005 (503) 643-SHOP
