Trying to get through a project but the laser isn't behaving. Stalls during
a cut (with laser on of course) but manages tp start back up a dozen times
before just stopping and burning a hole in the piece. Tried 4 or 5 usb
cables with varying results but still couldn't get a complete cut

Hi Keoni - do you have any pipettes for the OT-2?
We installed it right on the boundary between CCL and Sudo for now. Once we
start doing real experiments, we should move it into the wetlab though.
We also happen to have a Biometra TRobot, which is essentially a
thermocycler with an automated lid, so it can be easily incorporated into a
liquid handling robot. That should give us an ideal platform for PCR
applications on the Opentrons...
DNA barcoding of mushroom species is probably our #1 killer app for this
robot. When Alan Rockefeller comes back from his current outing throughout
Mexico, he will likely bring several hundred mushroom samples with him, all
of which will need to be submitted to PCR amplification and Sanger
sequencing. Alan usually mashes each sample with a little plastic pestle in
an Eppendorf tube - not sure how to replicate that on the robot, but we
could brainstorm a little device to macerate mushroom samples...

Heya,
Whoever “donated” these large plasma screens, can you tell me if they are
known to work? They weigh some 80 pounds and I can’t easily move them to a
power outlet to test.

Exciting news: This time Mike Zhao, our contract manufacturing expert, is
going to come for the Q&A in person! You can read more about him and the
contract manufacturing process here:
https://medium.com/supplyframe-hardware/shanghais-contract-manufacturing-a-…
*Note that due to Meetup.com fees we are increasing the price to $85, but
we will honor the previous price of $75 until Sunday October 7th.*

Are you manufacturing something with plastic? How much do you expect to pay
for your molds? $10,000? Maybe even $100,000? If you are a startup and
don't have the capital or the volumes to justify expensive plastic molds,
manufacturing out of sheet acrylic might be the answer for you.
Myself (Ruth) and Rik are running a sheet acrylic manufacturing workshop.
We make the whole process accessible, from teaching joints/cutting/bending
to sharing local prototyping contacts and hosting a 30 minute Q&A with a
Chinese contract manufacturer. The workshop is from 9:30AM to 12:30PM on
Oct 20th at the Noisebridge Hackerspace, and costs $85:
