Robots!

We got Robots! Thanks to Liz for a very apt mural.

Rats

Tom Scott built a rat maze from plywood and gaffa tape. Sol brought his rats to be put in it. Not entirely sure what the whole endeavour was about but Tom will probably post about it soon.

Sewing

Ciarán learnt how to use the sewing machine and made a spanner-wrap thingy. Thanks to Tamsin and Lester for teaching him.

Makerbot Upgrade

Russ has machined, with our lathe, a new all-metal ("all the time!") extruder head for the Makerbot. Hopefully this will solve whatever problems are plaguing the Makerbot.

Beer

Bob's beer taps were christened at the Tuesday public evening with Russ trying the first pint. We now have beer on tap!
