Expansion Needs
1.Demo a door in the front area of 102
1.1 Fix the air duct above the door
1.2 Finish out the wall where the door was removed
- Replace tiles and framework in a number of spaces in both 102 and 104
2.1 There will be a scissor lift on site for this
-
Add the ADA push plates to the front door on 102
-
Demo the sink area in 104
4.1 This is for the ADA water fountain, since we don’t have the fountain just yet this task is not an immediate need.
- Install the ADA water fountains in both 102 and 104
5.1 This is blocked until the fountains are ordered.
- Tape out each committees areas
6.1 This will be done post inspection, pre move in.
We also have a number of tasks for the electrician and other skilled trade roles that we will need to get estimates for before we can apply for the certificate. This process is currently underway and we will provide status as soon as we have the details.
If you would like to volunteer for the tasks please let team expansion know and we will procure the supplies for you and get the work scheduled. If you would like to volunteer for team expansion, please send your resume and contact info to the board.
Leather
Diamond Sewing Chisels: most of these are to either complete sets that have walked away/are broken; one is for the teaching sets, the rest are for the general use sets
3mm
1 tooth: $12.99 (Rocky Mountain Leather Supply)
4 tooth: $16.99 (Rocky Mountain Leather Supply)
5mm
1 tooth: $12.99 (Rocky Mountain Leather Supply)
6mm
1 tooth: $13.49 (GoodsJapan.com)
2 tooth: $14.99 (GoodsJapan.com)
4 tooth: $15.49 x 2 (GoodsJapan.com) - this is to complete the teacher’s set as well as the one missing from General Use.
Thread:
1mm black thread
.8mm white, mid brown, beige
$29.99 each (Rocky Mountain Leather Supply)
Needles:
John James Saddler Needles - size 0 and size 2: $15.00 (Rocky Mountain Leather Supply)
$237.39 total (both offer free shipping)
What this does is give us the ability to be stocked for the foreseeable future. We will need to (at some point) purchase leather once our current supply runs out; this can be subsidized by the class fees we will charge.
We can put off any rolling cabinets (and I can investigate alternate methods - including building something) until after the move. That’ll leave just the 4 chairs we’ll need for SuperTable, but again - we can worry about that once the move is closer.
TL;DR - I can get Leatherworking down to $240 - but will be tough to do it any lower; that’s what we need to exist.
Sewing
Sorry I won’t be able to attend this important meeting.
Please let me know when the expansion is expected to happen and what factors determine whether the sewing special interest group will become a committee in the next three months.
If we separate from CA before the expansion, will the board provide us with a bigger room than Digital Media? Will we receive budget to start the committee?
Since Sewing is bringing in $1200-1500 a month, will that amount be available when we are ready to buy materials for the expansion?
With regards to buying the supplies for the room, I believe this expansion is a perfect opportunity to upgrade the Sewing SIG. Attached are the layout of the room based on digital media’s dimension. If we were to buy the machine for embroidery and quilting, there will not be enough space. With that said, I hope the committee will agree to give us a bigger space if Sewing becomes a committee.
As mentioned previously, people come to the space for the equipment; we need the industrial machine and serger to attract new members and keep the current ones.
