<span style="color:#000000">* In Sept/for Oct, implement a process (proposal?) for holding votes with membership electronically, to allow us to accomplish votes without establishing quorum at/during meetings. (Blake) Google Forms suggested as a straightforward solution.
+
* Pete Soper reports that the FSL Hobby Laser may not be fully functional, may be out of focus in one corner.

* Pete Soper is moving the electronics to his home temporarily, he has Tom's key.
+
* Blake reached out to IT dept at his work and obtained 10 "pretty decent" laptops for the space. He will collect these on ~Nov 18. He hopes to replace current machines in the space with 2 left over. These are Dell machines with either i5 or i7 and at least 8GB of memory.  
−
** Pete has the electronics equipment from #24 Shoppers Street in his garage, currently. Plans to move it into his barn, eventually, but would prefer to move it to SplatSpace where it can be used.
+
−
** Fred Ebline (design engineer) originally donated the equipment, intended it to go to SplatSpace where it could be used.
+
−
** Scott Hall is planning to make additional shelving to go into The Ballroom (basement), to allow additional space to be cleared in The Boneyard for this equipment.
+

* Scott Hall ran into price problems for new shelves:  current cost would be $300 for 3 units, 4 shelves each, each 16" x 96".
+
* Last month, Blake and Andrew participated in a hackathon for updating the SplatSpace website. Andrew reduced our Linode service to 1/4 of the original payment. They made many adjustments to the webpage, but due to Wordpress versioning, it did not display correctly. a PHP update is also needed, and backups of the working site need to be made before any large changes are implemented. A Stripe customer/membership management portal should be available soon. Another hackathon is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 17 from 7pm - 9pm.
−
** COVID-related paper shortage has caused wood prices to skyrocket.
+
−
** Dawn mentioned we have steel uprights for shelves already, just need the flat shelf parts for them. Will send Scott the link to ULine product specs.
+
  
−

+
  
−
* Website plans: Blake suggests picking a night and knocking it out in a "hacking - marathon" (not a portmanteau though)
+
* Blake used a spare raspberry pi and a spare display to make a digital sign to display in the entrance hallway. It flips through a few screens/displays the Splatspace logo.
−
** Tentatively plan to meet on Tuesday, October 27 to create the web site. Dawn, Mark, and Ryan expressed interest in helping/participating.
+
−
** Updating the website to include the new Stripe Customer Portal is an <u>urgent</u> need
+
−
** Domain registration issue - Ryan splatspace.org domain has been renewed for a year.
+
  
−
* Update about liability insurance, expires October 18 (Dawn?).

** It needs to be renewed each October, and Dawn has renewed it for the next year.
+
** Put any media to be published on SplatSpace social media accounts here.

* Moving Annual Meeting (and officer elections) to November 10 to avoid conflict with national election.  We will send out updated email to membership announcing the meeting and election, soliciting candidates and votes.
+
* Lewis volunteered to make a 1-page PDF to provide to new members.
−
** Blake will post a sign this weekend in SplatSpace to announce the election.  
+
** This will include Member expectations (closing the space, safety procedures, cleanliness, SplatSpace is a volunteer organization with no paid cleaning staff.)
−
** Ryan will draft and send an email to the membership (based on previous emails send to the membership announcing the meeting) by October 10.
+
** Gate code and emergency contacts.
−

ToDo Action Items

(Items carried forward from previous meetings, but not up for discussion this month. Recorded here so we don't forget about them.)

  • Pete Soper reports that the FSL Hobby Laser may not be fully functional, may be out of focus in one corner.

* Door system - remains delayed, requires "jiggle."

* Training & Accountability (need volunteers)

[create doc with list of tools, include people & doc links as we start making equipment training guides]

Post-COVID TODOs

* Laser cutter soundproofing.

* Look into the option of renting the space no longer used by the gym or the contracting company (the garage). Possibly a good substitute for the basement storage we currently pay ~$500/mo. (Andrew & Blake)

New Business

  • A few PCs at Splatspace need to be replaced (Computer next to "Big Bertha" Fusion 306)
    • NOTE: Lulzbot PC okay, other PC too.
  • Blake reached out to IT dept at his work and obtained 10 "pretty decent" laptops for the space. He will collect these on ~Nov 18. He hopes to replace current machines in the space with 2 left over. These are Dell machines with either i5 or i7 and at least 8GB of memory.
  • Last month, Blake and Andrew participated in a hackathon for updating the SplatSpace website. Andrew reduced our Linode service to 1/4 of the original payment. They made many adjustments to the webpage, but due to Wordpress versioning, it did not display correctly. a PHP update is also needed, and backups of the working site need to be made before any large changes are implemented. A Stripe customer/membership management portal should be available soon. Another hackathon is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 17 from 7pm - 9pm.
  • Ryan to complete document for updating the Dorbo. Will order more key fobs.
  • Blake used a spare raspberry pi and a spare display to make a digital sign to display in the entrance hallway. It flips through a few screens/displays the Splatspace logo.
  • Lewis volunteered to make a 1-page PDF to provide to new members.
    • This will include Member expectations (closing the space, safety procedures, cleanliness, SplatSpace is a volunteer organization with no paid cleaning staff.)
    • Gate code and emergency contacts.
  • This spawned a similar idea to make a printable, 1-page PDF brochure to provide to interested members of the public about SplatSpace. Lewis will also start this.
    • Lewis solicited language/wording from the community and will use shared Google Slides documents to create these PDFs.
