==Summary==<br />
<br />
After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options. <br />
* Lulzbot Taz 5(2200usd.) <br />

** fast and high quality prints <br />
** largest print area <br />
** lowest maintenance and setup<br />

** + Large build area (11.5in x 12in x 13.5in)<br />
** + Cheap<br />
** - Kit<br />
** - No reviews<br />
<br />
* DIY delta printer (~600USD)<br />
** Heath is interested in pursuing<br />
** parts cannibalized from the copier bring this price down to ~400<br />
** Delta printers are faster than traditional FDM printers and provide comparable detail with the most vertical print area at the cost of horizontal print area<br />
** I worry that another DIY printer would require more time spent on the printer not on the prints<br />
<br />
** (Apple) I'm interested in building a [http://reprap.org/wiki/Tantillus Tantillus] that is an offspring of the Ultimaker design <br />
** Do a google image search on Tantillus for many examples built all plastic, acrylic, plywood and, t-slot. <br />
* Form2 resin printer(3500usd.)<br />
** resin printer<br />
** provides the highest quality<br />
** small prints <br />

I will also make a wiki page for planning and will place links and further information there.After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options. The first option favored and backed by several member's testimony is the Lulzbot Taz 5(2200usd.)

We have decided to purchase a 12" Makerfarm Pegasus, 12v 30amp power supply, some acrylic to make side panels, and an improved hot end for ~795USD. All the money has been pledged now it will need to be collected and then all items purchased, shipped, and assembled.</div>Sorcererhttp://bloominglabs.org/index.php/New_3d_PrinterNew 3d Printer2016-07-07T07:10:41Z<p>Sorcerer: /* Monetary Contributors */</p>

* We have enough money saved up, lets put it to work:<br />
* Dust collection system<br />
* Air compressor<br />
<pre><br />
It was decided we wanted to prioritize a replacement air compressor over the dust collector for now.<br />
By this point in the meeting we had a quorum (at least 25% of our members present).<br />
Called a vote, 13 votes for this measure, none against.<br />
<br />
An industrial air compressor was found on CL for $500, would require a phase convertor (an additional $200).<br />

===3D printer acquisition (fund raising)===<br />
<pre><br />
At this point the Makerfarm Pegasus 12" appears to be the prefered printer for the desired <br />

out about this on the members list in the near future.<br />

===Last minute agenda items===<br />
* Discussion of converting mud room into a bio lab<br />
<pre><br />
This was raised at the annual meeting this year. Only concerns by others were for the less than cleanly <br />
items that are in there (dirty slop sink, mop & bucket).<br />
Discussed the possibility of moving the slop sink into the workshop.<br />
Discussed an alternative of building out a small room where Adam’s car stuff is presently located (since he’s <br />
moving his stuff out). This was discussed as both building a small room there or a less permanent room made of<br />
plastic sheeting.<br />
No definitive decision was reached.<br />
</pre><br />
* Discussed installing an out-door spigot along the east wall (with valve inside).<br />
* Discussed fixing the slop sink so that cold water is controlled by cold water knob, and plumbing in the<br />
hot water line.<br />
<br />
* Discussed watching for Kmart (which is closing) to start selling their industrial shelving off. Also, check to see if Sears has done the same yet or if they are already closed out.<br />

<br />
[HTTPS://bit.ly/1TtYjng | Press release]<br />
<br />
Currently 190 AG150's in process of being wiped of data per agreement with Sunverge.<br />
<br />
<br />
For the time being, using this location to keep some information about them.<br />
<br />
== Intel DN2800mtl motherboard ==<br />
<br />
[http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/boards-and-kits/desktop-boards/intel-desktop-boards-with-intel-atom-processors/intel-desktop-board-dn2800mt.html Intel dn2800mt] morherboard.<br />
Or Mitac PD11T1 or Mitac PD10B1<br />
<br />
== Intel GMA 500 graphics ==<br />
<br />
Also known as the infamous [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Poulsbo Poulsbo], this is based on a PoverVR architechture and does not belong to the well supported family of integrated intel graphics adapters.<br />
The appropriate kernel module for this graphics is '''gma500_gfx''', although it works fine, it '''does not offer any acceleration''' and it has some caveats. <br />
<br />
Even when you disable from BIOS, it will think LVDS-1 is connected. <br />
It will further assume that the LVDS is 1920x1080 (or at least some widescreen resolution) and kms will switch to this resolution. <br />
If you are using one of the many monitors we have in the space, which cannot handle such resolution, this is why you might lose console during boot. <br />
To work around you can add 'video=1024x768' to your kernel parameters for terminal and you can stick a 'xrandr --output LVDS-1 --off' to your .xinitrc or some such place.<br />
<br />
== Intel Centrino radio ==<br />
<br />
[http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/centrino-advanced-n-6235.html Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 WiFi/Bluetooth card.]<br />
<br />
Available Intel supported LINUX kernel <br />
[HTTP://www.linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi/| iwiwifi] driver possibility '''NOT''' best configured with [http://git.kernel.org/cgit/network/connman/connman.git/| connman ] that requires '''uninstalling''' network-manager !<br />
<br />
So far Lubuntu 15.04 with Blueman works the best with managing this radio. WiFi, Bluetooth v2, and Bluetooth v4.<br />
<br />
== Audio in/out ==<br />
The audio is an HD Intel card with a Realtek ALC888-VD chipset. To enable the mic input, in alsamixer, enable “Rear Mic” and “Capture” devices (space bar while under each item). I don’t recommend turning up the Rear Mic Boost, it doesn’t seem to do much anyway.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Power Supply ==<br />
You must provide your own power supply to use these units. Power requirements are 8-19v at 60W. In reality, anything between 9-19v and at least 2A seems to work fine.<br />
[http://www.mini-box.com/60w-12v-5A-AC-DC-Power-Adapter These] are $15 plus shipping as of 1-2016; they work fine but are bit of an overkill. <br />
Multiple members have found suitable power supplies in goodwill. <br />
<br />
<br />
== Tips ==<br />
<br />
* For kernel, try the [http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/bfs/bfs-faq.txt BFS] patchset by Con Kolivas, it works very well for such underpowered devices.<br />
* Disable HT from bios. It is all lies. Especially if you are using BFS.<br />
* If you are looking for a distro try [http://www.archlinux.org arch], it is very lightweight by default and provides a very pedagogical experience. Also has a ck-patched atom-optimized kernel available in [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/repo-ck repo-ck]<br />
* If the AG150 you are using has the smaller SSD version, you can remove the mounting plate for the fullsize SSD for slightly better thermal dissipation.<br />
* You can mount a secondary antenna to the Centrino 6235. <br />
* The BIOS key is F2<br />

After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options. <br />

** Delta printers are faster than traditional FDM printers and provide comparable detail with the most vertical print area at the cost of horizontal print area<br />

<br />
** (Apple) I'm interested in building a [http://reprap.org/wiki/Tantillus Tantillus] that is an offspring of the Ultimaker design <br />
** Do a google image search on Tantillus for many examples built all plastic, acrylic, plywood and, t-slot. <br />

I believe that the Lulzbot Taz 5 is the best option but I leave this open to the list to make a final decision. I will also make a wiki page for planning and will place links and further information there.After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options. The first option favored and backed by several member's testimony is the Lulzbot Taz 5(2200usd.)

<br />
==Summary==<br />
<br />
After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options. <br />
* Lulzbot Taz 5(2200usd.) <br />
** favored and backed by several member's testimony<br />
** fast and high quality prints <br />
** largest print area <br />
** lowest maintenance and setup<br />
* DIY delta printer (~600USD)<br />
** Heath is interested in pursuing<br />
** parts cannibalized from the copier bring this price down to ~400<br />
** Delta printers are faster than traditional FDM printers and provide comparable detail with the most vertical print area at the cost of horizontal print area<br />
** I worry that another DIY printer would require more time spent on the printer not on the prints<br />
* Form2 resin printer(3500usd.)<br />
** resin printer<br />
** provides the highest quality<br />
** small prints <br />
** expensive to maintain<br />
<br />
I believe that the Lulzbot Taz 5 is the best option but I leave this open to the list to make a final decision. I will also make a wiki page for planning and will place links and further information there.After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options.

Delta printers are faster than traditional FDM printers and provide comparable detail with the most vertical print area at the cost of horizontal print area. Additionally I worry that another DIY printer would require more time spent on the printer not on the prints. A third option is a Form2 resin printer(3500usd.) The resin printer would provide the highest quality but small prints and would be expensive to maintain. I believe that the Lulzbot Taz 5 is the best option but I leave this open to the list to make a final decision. I will also make a wiki page for planning and will place links and further information there.After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options.

We usually meet for 2-3 hours and have a lot of fun. Having access to tools is only part of the equation, socializing with people and learning from each other is another large benefit from our group. Pretty much whatever people want to work on or learn is fair game. If it's cool and interesting then we are all interested.<br />

We are a bunch of people that want to do interesting things and explore the world and technology around us. Expression of this interest takes at least as many forms as we have members, and often employs an amalgam of found and newly-constructed hardware and/or open-source and self-authored software components, but may be as simple as screwing some pieces of wood together to make a useful tool we don't have yet.<br />

<br />
== What is a hacker space? ==<br />
It's a physical location where people can share resources for their own creative pursuits. It's also a resource where people can come in off the street and advance their own knowledge. In urban locations it can often be hard to find places to weld/build/make noise and keep projects on-going without having to tear down and put-up your work each evening. With a hacker space people can work on their projects and not worry about annoying their neighbors or spouses. The social aspect is also an incredibly important component. Having people to bounce ideas off of and discuss your projects with when you get stuck is a great thing.<br />

<div>Project page to raise money for a new 3d printer. If you would like to discuss the exact model to purchase please see the email thread in the member's list. The point of contact for this project is Joseph Cieslik.<br />
<br />
==Summary==<br />
<br />
After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options. The first option favored and backed by several member's testimony is the Lulzbot Taz 5(2200usd.) This would provide fast and high quality prints combined with the largest print area and lowest maintenance and setup. The next option is a DIY delta printer that Heath is interested in pursuing for ~600 although parts cannibalized from the copier bring this price down to ~400. Delta printers are faster than traditional FDM printers and provide comparable detail with the most vertical print area at the cost of horizontal print area. Additionally I worry that another DIY printer would require more time spent on the printer not on the prints. A third option is a Form2 resin printer(3500usd.) The resin printer would provide the highest quality but small prints and would be expensive to maintain. I believe that the Lulzbot Taz 5 is the best option but I leave this open to the list to make a final decision. I will also make a wiki page for planning and will place links and further information there.After conferring with several members familiar with 3d printers and checking this year's Make Magazine 3d Printer Shootout I have come up with 3 options.

== [[Public meetings|Meetings]] ==<br />
Currently we meet every Wednesday at 7:00pm at 1609 S. Rogers Street Building 4, Bloomington, Indiana. These meetings are open to the public; anyone is welcome to attend. We usually meet for 2-3 hours and have a lot of fun. Having access to tools is only part of the equation, socializing with people and learning from each other is another large benefit from our group. Pretty much whatever people want to work on or learn is fair game. If it's cool and interesting then we are all interested.<br />

== [[Laser|Laser Cutter]] ==<br />
We have funded a laser cutter, which is now on-site!! What can people do with this you might ask?? It can cut light wood and acrylic for rapid prototyping. It can also etch wood, acrylic, and metal. Many objects from iphones to laptops can be directly engraved with a laser. Be sure to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_FmlorBGqg watch] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CN5CvB47fL8 some] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfCZpuFUT4U videos] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arjRtCjI9AQ here], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfohmrM806w here], and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HC_Kgs81olQ here].<br />
<br />
We have a [http://fslaser.com/products/lasers/newhobby 5th generation 40W laser from Full Spectrum].<br />

<br />
== Who are we? ==<br />
We are a bunch of people that want to do interesting things and explore the world and technology around us. Expression of this interest takes at least as many forms as we have members, and often employs an amalgam of found and newly-constructed hardware and/or open-source and self-authored software components, but may be as simple as screwing some pieces of wood together to make a useful tool we don't have yet.<br />
<br />
Bloominglabs was forged from the Bloomington Hackerspace Initiative and the former IU Robotics Club.<br />
<br />
* Read our [[Bylaws]] for a more formalized overview<br />
<br />
<br />
== What is a hacker space? ==<br />
It's a physical location where people can share resources for their own creative pursuits. It's also a resource where people can come in off the street and advance their own knowledge. In urban locations it can often be hard to find places to weld/build/make noise and keep projects on-going without having to tear down and put-up your work each evening. With a hacker space people can work on their projects and not worry about annoying their neighbors or spouses. The social aspect is also an incredibly important component. Having people to bounce ideas off of and discuss your projects with when you get stuck is a great thing.<br />
