{{ToolTemplate|ToolName=CEB Press}}

You can insert a box like the one above by typing: '''<nowiki>{{ToolTemplate|ToolName=CEB Press}}</nowiki>'''

This can be used for any of the tools; just insert the name of the tool in place of 'CEB Press' and the software will generate the rest of it based on [[Template:ToolTemplate|this]].

This template generates links the following pages. We will have to standardize the information on each tool according to a scheme like this:
*ToolName Intro.
*ToolName Development. See [[GVCS Development Template]]
*ToolName Bill of Materials.
*ToolName Build Instructions. See [[Instructional Page Template]]
*Buy ToolName. This will raise funds for OSE. We can sell both kits and finished devices.
*ToolName user's manual. See [[User Manual Page Template]]

'Intro' page can include problem statement, design rationale, maybe a video or photos showing the machine in action. It should familiarize newcomers with the machine's abilities. We can include a comparison to existing commercial models here too. (It's impossible to have a separate page for each of these, because it would make the navigation box way too noisy.)

Cr144: created w. survey

Hello, this is a user page, if you have come here by accident then you may use the search bar to your left to find what you are looking for.

= Survey =
== Who ==

*Trenton Cronholm/U.S.A/mixture of Swedish and French ancestry, but in the US you would call me Caucasian or white
*I am located in either, Dallas, TX or Los Angeles, California
*Contact Information – cronholm@usc.edu
*Introductory Video- Later...
*Resume/CV – Tutoring and 3 years of college, not much more that needs to be said, but I can make it stretch for a page and a half if you are interested
*Hobbies and Pastimes- I haven't eaten out in 2 years, everything I eat, I prepare myself. I live extremely frugally, I make my own soap, toothpaste, render lard, etc... If I can make it myself I usually take that option. I bike or run most days. I read eclectically. I know quite a bit about nutrition and exercise. I keep abreast of the news, and I am currently researching various aspects of the "green" movement and technologies, as well as the societal and bureaucratic roadblocks to creating an improved world.

== Why ==

<span style="color:red">Why are you motivated to support/develop this work?
:...complex answer,the simplification is that you have a good idea, need help, and that I am in a position to give it.
*<span style="color:red">''Do you endorse open source culture?''
:Yes
*<span style="color:red">''Why are you interested in collaborating with us?''
:See above
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in teaching about the GVCS?''
:Vague...
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in economic relocalization possibilities arising from the GVCS?''
:They have fascinating implications for areas that are not already "established" in a modern sense.
*<span style="color:red">''Do you want to use the GVCS technologies yourself? Do you want to build them yourself?''
:Some of them
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in starting up enterprise using the GVCS technologies?''
:Not really, commercial anything isn't all that appealing
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in having the GVCS technologies fabricated by your local custom fabricator?''
:It would be great if that could happen, but the red tape would be prohibitive I imagine.
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in applying the GVCS to third world development? To redevelopment of crisis areas? To development of derelict areas in the developed world?''
:Yes
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in starting up Industry 2.0 flexible fabrication enterprises for your local community, by drawing from a global repository of freely down-loadable designs and fabricating using open source fabrication equipment?''
:Once again I hold out little hope against the litigiousness of modern american society and the prohibitiveness of it construction regulation.
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in the potential of the GVCS for developing local food systems?''
:Yes
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in doing academic studies/papers, publishing books, or doing other analysis of our efforts? ''
:Well if I work with you long enough I would be willing to draft an analysis of the efficacy of your methods.
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in financial investment opportunities arising from our work?''
:Bah, I am not interested in personal wealth.
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in the distributive economic aspects of our work, and if so, how do you see this playing out?''
:I am interested in a scholarly sense. Too soon for my opinion to be more than just barks and yips.
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in building renewable energy production facilities based on open hardware (solar concentrator electric, wind, biomass power)''
:Yes
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in building resilient communities based on access to the GVCS?''
:Hmm... I am interested to see if these communities are interested in building themselves
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in creating a bug-out hut using GVCS technologies?''
:Actually I was thinking about doing something like that with earthbags as the primary material.
*<span style="color:red">''How do you think that the GVCS can help alleviate the instabilities of global monetary systems?''
:It can help, yes.
*<span style="color:red">''How do you think that the GVCS can address issues related to resource conflicts?''
:Depends, but I imagine it would help in many environs
*<span style="color:red">''How do you think that the GVCS can address issues of overpopulation?''
:Insomuch as it brings about societal stability, so also will it alter child rearing strategies. Beyond that, it is hard to say.
*<span style="color:red">''How do you think that the GVCS can address issues of resource depletion and environmental degradation?''
:Locally yes, globally, I would say it is economically unlikely
*<span style="color:red">''Do you have any other comments that you'd like to make?'' I'd say that I have blathered on quite enough

== What ==
:You guys need help with your wiki, I can help with that.

*<span style="color:red">''What have you already contributed to the OSE project?''
:Wiki tech support so far

<span style="color:red">'''Communications'''
*<span style="color:red">Graphic designer?
:No, but I created about 50 free use .svg rendering for use in mathematics and sundry other article in wikipedia. Most were quite good, but not professional

<span style="color:red">'''Organizational'''
:I was an Eagle scout. I did volunteer work in high school. I have organized groups and lead them effectively, but it is not something that I seek out, it usually just happens.

<span style="color:red">'''Computer Support'''
*<span style="color:red">Are you familiar with open source software?
:Yes
*<span style="color:red">Do you use Linux?
:Yes
*<span style="color:red">Are you a computer programmer?
:No
*<span style="color:red">Have you administered a wiki?
:I helped administer Wikipedia for a year and a half (writing, organizing, graphics, dispute resolution, bug reporting, content assessment, voting and project collaboration), but I never applied for, acquired, nor used admin tools (I.E. page deletion, page protection and blocking disruptive users and IPs.)

<span style="color:red">'''Finances'''
:Personal finances only.

<span style="color:red">'''Sociology'''
:Societal paradigms are fascinating to me. I am most interested in the process of rapid societal evolution that we area part of. Regarding the development of a particular social contract, yes I am interested, but it must be practicable on a large scale. Utopianism and idle philosophizing are not anything but daliance.

<span style="color:red">'''Home Economics'''
:I can cook just about anything, but I have never cooked for more than 16 people, nor have I worked in an industrial level kitchen. I am more inclined towards baking since it is more precise.

<span style="color:red">'''Design'''
:I have played around with Blender for a while, but that was 4 years ago.

<span style="color:red">'''Building'''
:I grew up building stuff. I enjoy working with wood and especially the lathe. I am at a hobbyest level in most things however.

<span style="color:red">'''Electronics and Magnetics'''
:I know basic E&M(college intro level)

<span style="color:red">'''Automation'''
:I have little experience with automation

<span style="color:red">'''Metallurgy'''
:I am not a metallurgist

<span style="color:red">'''Engineering'''
:I am not a trained engineer

== How ==

*<span style="color:red">''How are you interested in contributing to the work of GVCS development?''
:Digitally for now.
*<span style="color:red">''Can you volunteer to work with us, and if so, how many hours per week?''
:Depends, I am on leave for the semester so I have more free time now than I will later.
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in working with us for pay?''
:No, money does not interest me.
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in a [[Dedicated Project Visit]]?''
:Maybe
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in purchasing equipment from us to help bootstrap development?''
:Impractical for the near future
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in bidding for consulting/design/prototyping work?''
:No
*<span style="color:red">''Are you a [http://openfarmtech.org/index.php?title=True_Fans True Fan]? If not, why not?''
:$10 is not much, certainly, but I just got here and would rather contribute time initially.
*<span style="color:red">''Would you like to see yourself working with us on a full-time basis?''
:Not at this time
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in using the technologies that we are developing directly?''
:Some, not all
*<span style="color:red">''Are you interested in being part of the world's first, open source, resilient community? The GVCS is the preparatory step for the OSE Village Experiment – a 2 year, immersion experiment (2013-2014) for testing whether a real, thriving, modern-day prototype community of 200 people can be built on 200 acres using local resources and open access to information? We are looking for approximately 200 people to fill a diverse array of roles, according to the Social Contract that is being developed. This may be the boldest social experiment on earth - a pioneering community whose goal is to extend the index of possibilities regarding harmonious existence of humans, ecology, and technology – as a beacon of light to benefit of all people on Earth. ''
:It is fascinating and I think I would enjoy it. However I am not sure what I am going to be doing in 2013. So we'll just have to wait and see.

Hi Marcin, I can fiddle around with design here until it is ready to replace the clunky old thing. I can also go over the CEB 2 [[Talk:CEB_Press_2|talk page]] and encourage everyone else to add to the ongoing design here. Once its done, we can go live by copying and pasting the new code and I can move on to whatever else. --C 01:32, 17 February 2011 (PST)
