For anyone not working in Oakland, getting to the shop before 6 can be tough with rush hour traffic. It doesn't help that Asylum closed and we don't have any convenient places to get dinner. :(


Two questions:

What's the best way to promote the shop to new members?

We have T-Shirts as a general awareness raiser. I'd like to see some non-black T-shirts for summer time.

I've been starting to make contacts with area Ham Radio clubs (out near where I grew up), but that is almost preaching to the choir.

Any interest in slmple woodworking projects?  I was thinking of "how
to make a tiki torch holder with a bottle of beer." sometime in the
next month or so.

I'd be interested in something like that (I have a few neighbors who would like something like that).

Sweat-shop temperatures aside, I think arduino (and maybe IOBridge?) classes are somethings I can help with.
