<hr />
<div>== Consumables ==<br />
<br />
The main consumables a member may need to buy are<br />
<br />
* Electrode - 220842<br />
* 45A Tip - 220941<br />
* 65A Tip - 220819<br />
* 45A/65A Shield - 220798<br />
* 45A FineCut Tip - 220930<br />
* FineCut Shield - 220948 (the FineCut tip needs a different shield)<br />
<br />
You must provide your own electrodes and tips. There is currently a FineCut shield on the plasma cutter, but you may need to provide your own 45A/65A shield.<br />

== Fusion 360 ==<br />
<br />
Fusion 360 can be used to easily generate the G-code for our CNC Plasma Cutter. The following is some useful information that can get you started. To learn more you can check the [http://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/?guid=GUID-C14B9F20-3A39-4930-971E-BDFE268384B9 2D Profile reference] for an explanation of each of the 2D profile settings.<br />
<br />
<br />
To get started with default settings that work with MakeICT's plasma table, download the following files.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''POST PROCESSOR'''<br />
<br />
The first thing you want to do is to grab the Post-Processor. This will ensure that your G-Code matches what our table needs to operate. This really just replaces the M3 with a pierce probe and adds an M5 to stop the torch.<br />
*[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1e_ZYejW3EKQ-HD02pVF51l9VPeXagU-z/view?usp=sharing Post-Processor] <br />
<br />
<br />
'''TEMPLATES'''<br />
<br />
You also want to grab the templates for our table. This is not required, but it will save you from having to track down all of the tool settings yourself. <br />
*[https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Zl0KW_o20BaD3otW77eSzxf5Uu55JEyH .125 LeadIn with Kerf]<br />
*[https://drive.google.com/open?id=14-KvUMwOmsKKnDHA1Sk77yUqEtM6Mj4y No LeadIn or Kerf]<br />
If you do change the tool settings and the dimensions of your cut parts are important, using ‘Compensation Type: In computer’ under the ‘Passes’ tab is recommended for best accuracy. Using ‘Compensation Type: In control’ will cause errors in LinuxCNC without manual editing of the g-code, and will give inconsistent results.<br />
<br />
'''TOOLS'''<br />
<br />
Finally grab the tool files.<br />
*[https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qDB9Xsch6fngfBSZE5DU2Ulljm6nY5ZF 45 Amp Tip]<br />
*[https://drive.google.com/open?id=1bX023Ehqh-aDlCkZeNsPDFm2ktYIDt4- 65 Amp Tip]<br />
*[https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fyAXXyNl0gN45t1EUx54SfqRpDQA_9JW Fine Cut Tip]<br />
<br />
<br />
Once you have the files all downloaded you will need to upload them to your Fusion 360 account. You only need to do this once, unless the files change and you need to replace them.<br />
<br />
Open Fusion 360<br />
* Go to the upper right corner ... you should see your name<br />
* Click on your name and select "Preferences"<br />
* Under "General" ... select "Manufacture"<br />
* Check the "Enable Cloud Libraries" checkbox and click the OK button.<br />
* On the main window, click on the "Show Data Panel" icon in the upper left hand corner (looks like a 3x3 box grid).<br />
* On the left side of the window, you should see a tab that shows "Projects, Libraries, and Samples". If you do not see this, then at the top you should see a big bold < symbol. Click this, and it should take you to the right place.<br />
* Under Libraries click on Assets<br />
* You should now see 4 folders ... CAMMachines, CAMPosts, CAMTempletes, CAMTools <br />
* CAMPosts - 1 Post Processor File<br />
* CAMTempletes - 2 Template Files<br />
* CAMTools - 3 Tool Files<br />
* Click on the folder that you want to upload, and then drag the file(s) from your download folder to the dialog, and click the Upload Button.<br />
* Repeat for each folder. To switch to a new folder, you can either click the < at the top and then click on the Assets folder again. Or, on the far left, you should see a the folder you are working on (A triangle symbol followed by > followed by the Folder Name). Click on the triangle, and it will show you all of the folders. If you click on the > symbol, it will give you a drop down with all of the folders.<br />
<br />
Now you are ready to begin using Fusion 360 to design your job.<br />
<br />
Some basic steps:<br />
<br />
'''Create Sketch'''<br />
* Start a new Model<br />
* Select the X/Y plane (red/green)<br />
* Create a new sketch<br />
* Insert an image or SVG ... or you can draw you sketch by hand.<br />
* Make sure you have extruded your drawing (especially if you are using an image or svg). The depth does not matter, it just has to be extruded.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Switch to MANUFACTURE mode'''<br />
* Add a new setup<br />
* Select "Cutting" operation.<br />
* Click on the bottom left corner of your drawing to select the anchor point.<br />
* Right click on the setup you just created, and select "Create From Template".<br />
* You should have two templates that you added earlier. Use the "MakeICT no leadin or Kerf" for the cases where a quick generation time and getting every pierce is required. The "MakeICT .125 lead in with Kerf" is recommended for dimensional parts but suffer from slower generation time and instability if multiple holes are smaller than .125in.<br />
* You should now have a new tool showing ... it will have a red circle with an exclamation mark. If you don't see this, click the little triangle to the left of the setup.<br />
* Right click on the new tool, and select edit.<br />
* Click on Tool and select the tip size that you will be using for cutting. This should be on the left side under the Cloud section.<br />
* Select the correct material size.<br />
* Switch to Geometry, select the area to cut.<br />
* If you have small parts that may fall into the water, you can add tabs at desired points. Typically you just want one tab per item, to make it easier to remove in the end.<br />
* Click OK to close the edit dialog.<br />
* You should now see the tool path on the drawing. You can right click on the setup to simulate the operation if you want to see how it will cut.<br />
* Final step is to apply the Post-Processor. This will generate the G-Code that you will load on the plasma cutter. Right click on the setup and select Post Process.<br />
* Make sure that the "Configuration Folder" says <My Cloud Posts>. If it doesn't, click the Setup Button, an switch it to Cloud<br />
* You should only have one option, but make sure that the Post Configuration section has the MakeICT plasma processor selected.<br />
* At the bottom Left, change the Units to Inches.<br />
* Change the Output Folder to the location you want to save your G-Code. You will need this on a USB flash drive, to put it on the plasma computer.<br />
<br />

'''Ready to move to the Plasma'''</div>Sam Schurterhttps://wiki.makeict.org/index.php?title=Shopbot&diff=5363Shopbot2017-11-19T17:59:41Z<p>Sam Schurter: </p>
<hr />
<div>[[File:shopbot_alpha_4x8.jpg|200px]]<br />
<br />
The shopbot is a wood CNC router in the [[woodshop]]. We have been teaching introductory classes to the Shopbot and CNC on roughly a monthly basis. Look at the calendar for classes. These are limited in size, and we split into 2 groups to get hands on, each covering the shopbot and one of the two software packages that's being used. <br />
<br />
Note, that like everything in the woodshop, use of the Shopbot requires that you be authorized to use the woodshop, via the class. <br />
<br />
==Software==<br />
There are several ways to generate the g-code required for LinuxCNC to use the shopbot.<br />
<br />
For very simple applications: http://easel.inventables.com/<br />
<br />
For more advanced: http://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/overview<br />
<br />
==Problems==<br />
One problem that has been encountered is that due to trying to keep the feed rate up, the motion planner will cut some corners. To prevent this add the line to your program: "G64 P0.001". This will tell it to keep deviations to less than 0.001 units (mm or in), while still attempting to keep the speed up as much as possible. You can use a higher value if you want to. See here for a more complete discussion as to why that happens: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.6/html/common/User_Concepts.html<br />

<div>MakeICT's classroom is a 750 sq ft area for workshops/classes, events, and shared workspace. It will provide a modern learning environment with all the tools needed by an instructor or student for teaching or learning.<br />
<br />
<br />
[[User:Sam Schurter|Sam Schurter]] is the Benevolent Dictator over the Classroom.<br />
<br />
== Remodel ==<br />
There are a few improvements planned for the classroom:<br />
*Hallway wall - to keep the classroom isolated during classes.<br />
*Carpet, drop ceiling, and west wall - to make the classroom modern and clean<br />
*A/V system - so that it is plug'n'play for instructors no matter what equipment they have or use.<br />
*PC Lab - Midrange workstations good for graphics and computation more than the laptops can handle<br />
<br />
The first two items are happening right now, so there may be some construction going on at various times. We will attempt to keep out of the way and work around classes, but we apologize in advance for any inconvenience.<br />
<br />
== Access Policy ==<br />
===Classroom===<br />
The classroom is reserved for workshops and classes according to the [http://makeict.org/calendar calendar]. It can also be reserved by members following this policy:<br />
<blockquote>A keyed-member in good standing may host a private meeting/event at the MakeICT makerspace as long as they are not charging a fee. If any rooms or resources are to be held or if the number of non-member guests exceeds the Guest Policy allowance, a reservation must be submitted and approved 14 days in advanced. The host member is responsible/liable for activities of their guests, and all guests must follow official guest policies. There is no fee for this resource to our members, but a donation is suggested to offset facility costs.</blockquote><br />
<br />
Email [mailto:samschurter@makeict.org samschurter@makeict.org] to reserve the classroom for private meetings/events.<br />
<br />
During times when it hasn't been reserved, it shall be considered a shared workspace.<br />
<br />
===Laptops===<br />
Members using the laptops agree to return them to the proper shelf and plug them in when finished, and keep them out of dirty and dusty areas such as the metal shop, wood shop, and ceramics room. The laptops are not to be removed from the Makerspace. To protect your personal information, it is strongly recommended to only access the internet from an Incognito window, and properly log out of all websites when finished browsing.<br />

<hr />
<div>The 3D printer is a quick setup demonstration that can be taken to fairs or trade shows. It is intended to spark interest in making and to blur the line between the physical and the digital.<br />
<br />
== Materials ==<br />
3D Printer (Ultimaker preferred)<br />
3D Print filament (any color)<br />
Print files<br />
SD card<br />
Extension Cord<br />
<br />
==Preparation==<br />
Make sure you have filament loaded and the bed is level. Easiest is probably just to start a print and abort it as soon as it looks like it works.<br />
Make sure you have one or more small, interesting prints ready. The Ultimaker bot works, but other figures could work also.<br />
Confirm that there will be electrical power available at whatever location will be used.<br />
<br />
==Presentation==<br />
<br />
==STEM Application==</div>Sam Schurterhttps://wiki.makeict.org/index.php?title=Outreach_Committee&diff=3703Outreach Committee2016-05-02T23:16:19Z<p>Sam Schurter: /* Courses */</p>
<hr />
<div>The goal of the outreach gaggle is to _______________________. We do this by _______________. This page is a resource for members of the gaggle to share ideas and activities.<br />
<br />
The Outreach Gaggle is led by [[user:Barbara Davis|Barbara Davis]]<br />
<br />
= Upcoming events =<br />
* April 18, Maker Monday<br />
* May 2, Maker Monday<br />
* May 15, 2:00pm Outreach Gaggle Meeting<br />
<br />
= Field Trip Notes =<br />
Taking a look at what other makerspaces do, other organizations that run cool demos or classes, or STEM related summer camps. We intend to gather ideas and techniques to use or improve in our own outreach.<br />
<br />
== Cosmosphere/Hutch Makerspace==<br />
Coming Soon! Planning on Google Groups at the moment.<br />
<br />
= Activities =<br />
Listing of all the activities that have been brainstormed, planned, or executed.<br />
<br />
==What Each Activity Needs==<br />
There are four basic things that each activity page needs to be complete. (consider having students who need service learning credit develop parts of the programs) Design is important to making a program successful.<br />
# Materials and Equipment List. This should indicate whether an item is consumable in the case of make'n'take activities, just need a couple (think: wire cutters for brushbots), or are permanent resources that may need review/prep (like the Mindstorms robots)<br />
#Preparation instructions. Details on how to put together kits, including how to prep each part.<br />
#Presentation instructions. How do you put together a brushbot? A high powered rocket?<br />
#STEM application. What's the science and math motivating this activity?<br />
<br />
===Backpack Kits===<br />
These will be small kit projects for make'n'take at fairs or expos, and demonstrations less than 20 minutes.<br />
Includes an inventory sheet and instruction sheet (laminated). Stocked with parts to do a number or students. Also consider selling project kits to schools and organizations. This could be something service learning students could help with.<br />

<div>The goal of the outreach gaggle is to _______________________. We do this by _______________. This page is a resource for members of the gaggle to share ideas and activities.<br />
<br />
The Outreach Gaggle is led by [[user:Barbara Davis|Barbara Davis]]<br />
<br />
= Upcoming events =<br />
* April 18, Maker Monday<br />
* May 2, Maker Monday<br />
* May 15, 2:00pm Outreach Gaggle Meeting<br />
<br />
= Field Trip Notes =<br />
Taking a look at what other makerspaces do, other organizations that run cool demos or classes, or STEM related summer camps. We intend to gather ideas and techniques to use or improve in our own outreach.<br />
<br />
== Cosmosphere/Hutch Makerspace==<br />
Coming Soon! Planning on Google Groups at the moment.<br />
<br />
= Activities =<br />
Listing of all the activities that have been brainstormed, planned, or executed.<br />
<br />
==What Each Activity Needs==<br />
There are four basic things that each activity page needs to be complete. (consider having students who need service learning credit develop parts of the programs) Design is important to making a program successful.<br />
# Materials and Equipment List. This should indicate whether an item is consumable in the case of make'n'take activities, just need a couple (think: wire cutters for brushbots), or are permanent resources that may need review/prep (like the Mindstorms robots)<br />
#Preparation instructions. Details on how to put together kits, including how to prep each part.<br />
#Presentation instructions. How do you put together a brushbot? A high powered rocket?<br />
#STEM application. What's the science and math motivating this activity?<br />
<br />
===Backpack Kits===<br />
These will be small kit projects for make'n'take at fairs or expos, and demonstrations less than 20 minutes.<br />
Includes an inventory sheet and instruction sheet (laminated). Stocked with parts to do a number or students. Also consider selling project kits to schools and organizations. This could be something service learning students could help with.<br />

<div>MakeICT's classroom is a 750 sq ft area for workshops/classes, events, and shared workspace. It will provide a modern learning environment with all the tools needed by an instructor or student for teaching or learning.<br />
<br />
<br />
[[User:Sam Schurter|Sam Schurter]] is the Benevolent Dictator over the Classroom.<br />
<br />
== Remodel ==<br />
There are a few improvements planned for the classroom:<br />
*Hallway wall - to keep the classroom isolated during classes.<br />
*Carpet, drop ceiling, and west wall - to make the classroom modern and clean<br />
*A/V system - so that it is plug'n'play for instructors no matter what equipment they have or use.<br />
*PC Lab - Midrange workstations good for graphics and computation more than the laptops can handle<br />
<br />
The first two items are happening right now, so there may be some construction going on at various times. We will attempt to keep out of the way and work around classes, but we apologize in advance for any inconvenience.<br />
<br />
== Access Policy ==<br />
===Classroom===<br />
The classroom is reserved for workshops and classes according to the [http://makeict.org/calendar calendar]. It can also be reserved by members following this policy:<br />
<blockquote>A keyed-member in good standing may host a private meeting/event at the MakeICT makerspace as long as they are not charging a fee. If any rooms or resources are to be held or if the number of non-member guests exceeds the Guest Policy allowance, a reservation must be submitted and approved 14 days in advanced. The host member is responsible/liable for activities of their guests, and all guests must follow official guest policies. There is no fee for this resource to our members, but a donation is suggested to offset facility costs.</blockquote><br />
<br />
Email [mailto:samschurter@makeict.org samschurter@makeict.org] to reserve the classroom for private meetings/events.<br />
<br />
During times when it hasn't been reserved, it shall be considered a shared workspace.<br />
<br />
===Laptops===<br />
Members using the laptops agree to return them to the proper shelf and plug them in when finished, and keep them out of dirty and dusty areas such as the metal shop, wood shop, and ceramics room. The laptops are not to be removed from the Makerspace. To protect your personal information, it is strongly recommended to only access the internet from an Incognito window, and properly log out of all websites when finished browsing.<br />

<div>== General Information ==<br />
MakeICT's classroom is a 750 sq ft area for workshops/classes, events, and shared workspace. It will provide a modern learning environment with all the tools needed by an instructor or student for teaching or learning.<br />
<br />
<br />
[[User:Sam Schurter|Sam Schurter]] is the Benevolent Dictator over the Classroom.<br />
<br />
== Remodel ==<br />
There are a few improvements planned for the classroom:<br />
*Hallway wall - to keep the classroom isolated during classes.<br />
*Carpet, drop ceiling, and west wall - to make the classroom modern and clean<br />
*A/V system - so that it is plug'n'play for instructors no matter what equipment they have or use.<br />
*PC Lab - Midrange workstations good for graphics and computation more than the laptops can handle<br />
<br />
The first two items are happening right now, so there may be some construction going on at various times. We will attempt to keep out of the way and work around classes, but we apologize in advance for any inconvenience.<br />
<br />
== Access Policy ==<br />
===Classroom===<br />
The classroom is reserved for workshops and classes according to the [http://makeict.org/calendar calendar]. It can also be reserved by members following this policy:<br />
<blockquote>A keyed-member in good standing may host a private meeting/event at the MakeICT makerspace as long as they are not charging a fee. If any rooms or resources are to be held or if the number of non-member guests exceeds the Guest Policy allowance, a reservation must be submitted and approved 14 days in advanced. The host member is responsible/liable for activities of their guests, and all guests must follow official guest policies. There is no fee for this resource to our members, but a donation is suggested to offset facility costs.</blockquote><br />
<br />
During times when it hasn't been reserved, it shall be considered a shared workspace.<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>The goal of the outreach gaggle is to _______________________. We do this by _______________. This page is a resource for members of the gaggle to share ideas and activities.<br />
<br />
The Outreach Gaggle is led by [[user:Barbara Davis|Barbara Davis]]<br />
<br />
= Upcoming events =<br />
* April 18, Maker Monday<br />
* May 2, Maker Monday<br />
* May 15, 2:00pm Outreach Gaggle Meeting<br />
<br />
= Field Trip Notes =<br />
Taking a look at what other makerspaces do, other organizations that run cool demos or classes, or STEM related summer camps. We intend to gather ideas and techniques to use or improve in our own outreach.<br />
<br />
== Cosmosphere/Hutch Makerspace==<br />
Coming Soon! Planning on Google Groups at the moment.<br />
<br />
= Activities =<br />
Listing of all the activities that have been brainstormed, planned, or executed.<br />
<br />
==What Each Activity Needs==<br />
There are four basic things that each activity page needs to be complete. <br />
# Materials and Equipment List. This should indicate whether an item is consumable in the case of make'n'take activities, just need a couple (think: wire cutters for brushbots), or are permanent resources that may need review/prep (like the Mindstorms robots)<br />
#Preparation instructions. Details on how to put together kits, including how to prep each part.<br />
#Presentation instructions. How do you put together a brushbot? A high powered rocket?<br />
#STEM application. What's the science and math motivating this activity?<br />
<br />
===Backpack Kits===<br />
These will be small kit projects for make'n'take at fairs or expos, and demonstrations less than 20 minutes.<br />
===One-Off Classes===<br />
These are activites that need a dedicated classroom space, whether it is at a school, a camp, or right at MakeICT. These can probably be put together as a kit, but they will teach a single, self contained topic or project from start to finish.<br />
===Courses===<br />
These will be anything that will span multiple days, whether that is a single weekend like a summer camp, or one day a week for several weeks. Each day will build on knowledge and skills from the previous days. These probably won't lend themselves well to "kits" and will likely require a skilled instructor. It's a given that these will require dedicated classroom space. <br />

<br />
= Upcoming events =<br />
* April 18, Maker Monday<br />
* May 2, Maker Monday<br />
* May 15, 2:00pm Outreach Gaggle Meeting<br />
<br />
= Field Trip Notes =<br />
Taking a look at what other makerspaces do, other organizations that run cool demos or classes, or STEM related summer camps. We intend to gather ideas and techniques to use or improve in our own outreach.<br />
<br />
== Cosmosphere/Hutch Makerspace==<br />
Coming Soon! Planning on Google Groups at the moment.<br />
<br />
= Activities =<br />
Listing of all the activities that have been brainstormed, planned, or executed.<br />
<br />
==What Each Activity Needs==<br />
There are four basic things that each activity page needs to be complete. <br />
# Materials and Equipment List. This should indicate whether an item is consumable in the case of make'n'take activities, just need a couple (think: wire cutters for brushbots), or are permanent resources that may need review/prep (like the Mindstorms robots)<br />
#Preparation instructions. Details on how to put together kits, including how to prep each part.<br />
#Presentation instructions. How do you put together a brushbot? A high powered rocket?<br />
#STEM application. What's the science and math motivating this activity?<br />

<div>== Intro to soldering ==<br />
Teach people how to use soldering irons. This is a hands-on activity that requires some 1-on-1 supervision and has make-it-take-it output.<br />
<br />
=== Supplies ===<br />
* Soldering irons and sponges - 1 per X participants<br />
* Solder wick - 1 per soldering iron<br />
* Solder spool - 1 per soldering iron<br />
* Helping hands or clamps - 1 per soldering iron<br />
* Work mat (piece of cardboard works fine) - 1 per soldering iron<br />
* Something to solder - 1 per X participant<br />
* Extension cords / surge protectors<br />
<br />
=== Preparation ===<br />
# Lay out soldering irons and mats<br />
# Plug in and turn on irons so they are ready to go<br />
<br />
=== Procedure ===<br />
# Demonstrate how to hold the soldering iron<br />
# Tin the tip (melt a small bit of solder onto the iron tip)<br />
# Press the component to the pad<br />
# Use the iron tip to heat the component and pad<br />
# While holding the iron to the component/pad, melt solder onto the component/tab. Do not melt the solder on the iron<br />
# While still holding the iron to the component/pad, pull the solder away<br />
# Allow the solder to flow around the pad and component<br />
# Pull the iron away<br />
# Clean the tip<br />
# Return the iron to its holder<br />
