AKA Boss Hog …
EDIT: I can’t take the credit for this idea. I’ll let the originator step forward and take credit … he knows who he is!

Don’t forget a google meet link, please.
Unfortunately Saturday evening is Passover, I’ll be elsewhere - that also starts at 5PM.

whatever happened to the project
Calling all PIG’s(Plastic Interest Group)… Join us this Saturday at the committee meeting to discuss items for plastics & where you want to see plastics go.
I work all weekend, I’d love to see a summary later. Personally I’d love to see plastics become the place where people go to make simple shapes instead of trying to 3d print what amounts to a square basically.
Raspberry pi cases for example, which could easily be cut and heat formed in moments in PIG take like 10+ hours on a 3d print.
I’d also love to see a donation bin /shelf. Like type 5 plastics from discarded plastic furniture / bins / shelving is to my experience more than good enough quality to do standard projects. It seems silly to bring in fresh sheets of type 5 when there’s enough in dumpsters to fabricate an entire shed or whatever.
A good intro class would be to make a cutting board entirely from recycled plastic. Just heat press and introduce whatever features desired.
