I don't think so... The first weekend is Labor Day Weekend. We can't do the second weekend because of the children's festival. Besides when we did it last year there wasn't anything going on in the area and we still didn't have anyone showing up. The only way we can increase visibility is to post it in the local paper. I did post it in most of the local areas and on the Meadville face book page. I could post it on the local news sites this time as well.

Quote from: MicroNut on Apr 21, 2026, 08:18 AMSounds good with me. That is the last Saturday of the fair. I'll be tired of the fair food and the produce exhibits will look pretty raunchy by then :). I don't see too many people locally coming to our meetup because of the fair. More time to get caught up with each other!
Do you think that the first, or second, Saturday in Sept would have more locals come to the meetup. I would still like to bring more people in to electronics - and preferably also to Savage///Chats.

Quote from: MicroNut on Sep 28, 2025, 05:22 PMIt was a good time. I'm glad to have met all of you!!!! Counting down to August 29th 2026 for the next one :).
Did we discuss arranging our next meetup right after the last one? I forgot about that, and it is not in my calendar. If we did set up that date, I am okay with that, and it is not too close to Marilyn's birthday.  ;D
So, how does the 29th look to you guys?

Oops I got a bit excited since 2027 is the year I plan to retire :). The last 2 weekends in September won't work for me. My wife and I are planning our first get-a-way vacation in 6 years the last week of September. Also the 2nd weekend in September is the church's children festival. I remember talking about doing the meetup earlier like August last year. August is open for me. I'll probably have the third week off since it is the week of our county fair. I'll be in town and I will be available any week end that month. In fact the 2nd or 3rd weekend of August nothing usually is scheduled at the church because of the fair.

@Chris I don't know how to change the 2027 to 2026 in the tile.

3D Printers & Laser Cutters / Re: 3D Print of the Week

Quote from: granz on Apr 20, 2026, 07:40 AMInteresting, I have been looking into the A1 Combo (four color.)

The Combo is the one I'm using, though the 4 colors are really a convenience. I rarely print in multiple colors. A better feature of the AMS is to have a spare spool for when one runs out, it will automatically switch to the new spool. I use that feature much more.

Quote from: granz on Apr 20, 2026, 07:40 AMIt seems that the printing on the sides of those lube appliers would be better if they showed on which axis it was to be used. Although, I guess that the shape of the grease head shows that.

Yeah, each axis has a unique requirement and if you have the printer in front of you, it becomes obvious which tool takes care of which axis.
