Events
The Vision
Club Meetings will be twice per month at these meetings we will discuss Project Objectives , decide on a builds. where we will
We discuss and post a materials list cost estimates
Collaborate on ideas share tips and tricks
Upload your ideas to our club forum (TBD)
Compare progress
At the end of the build period we will celebrate each others build success by going on a club Project Crawl.
Club members are encouraged to share build plans (Optional participation)
This can be very simple drawing or a sketch up design (optional)
At the end of the project - and the Maker is in agreement we create a final plan in sketch up and store in our Club Library (we could monetize and sell plans for club revenue)
Bulk materials deal with shared materials; we all pitch in the cash to acquire those materials.
Each person or team up (up to you if you want to team up or build your own) work on your builds at your own time and pace.
The forum will be available for club support and or idea sessions if you so choose
At one of those meetings will either be a meetup to enjoy the work we have completed. (either we do a project crawl where each club member's house will invite each member to see the progress or the final product or we choose to go to one club member's house to do the same.
