On this week’s Hackerspace Digest, Matt, Tim, Tuttle and I talk about HackPGH’s Ping Pong Drop, Crash Space’s Disaster Readiness Meetup and Ratmandu’s ATMEGA128RFA1 breakout board. We spend quite a bit of time talking about our travels to Atlanta and our participation in the Mini Maker Faire. Tim’s dog house on wheels got into a little trouble, but also won an award.

As always, the notes are on the wiki.

This week Matt, Nathan, and Tim talk updates at Makers Local 256, Rasberry Pie, The Beginning book and more. They find some crazy wiki pages on other hackerspaces websites, learn what a LapMaster is, and how to make a LetterPress. All this in little over an hour.

As always, the notes are on the wiki.

Recorded, (holy crap, today?) August 24, 2011. Hosts Jimshoe, Brimstone and Crashcart, back from their hiatus, record another Hackerspace Digest. Makers Local updates include the big move, wikis, and recent events. They discuss exploits by Hive 76, Noisebridge and CCCKC. Revspace’s new book club and upcoming events are also discussed

As always, the notes are on the wiki.

This week is “Show & Tell” night on Wednesday at the shop. If you have a project that you would like to discuss, explain, or just plain show off, bring it starting at 7pm. Check out the wikipage to sign up or just browse participants. Progress and/or completion are completely optional!

The Huntsville Open Manufacturing Meetup will be held on Thursday, August 25th starting at 7pm. If you are interested, please check the meetup site for more details.

And this won’t be exactly at Makers Local 256, but if you like tinkering and toys, check out David Reyes’ exhibit on the 1st floor of Lowe Mill. Its called “Conflict Resolution” and is filled with “weaponized toys.” It will be on display until the 28th of August. Check out Lowe Mill for more information.

Reddit followers will probably recognize the importance of this event. A movie, once thought lost forever in some studio’s vault, has finally been reclaimed by the general public through a desperate redditor request. Produced for Nickelodean viewers, the film was deemed “too scary” for children and yanked from the airwaves after only run. However, now that we are all adults, we should be able to handle it!

Bring your own whatever and be at the shop at 9:00pm on Friday, Mog-gust 19!
