			=From February 2009=
			*2.21.09 - After reviewing the [[MechMate]] design for an open source router table, we decided to adapt a spring tensioning mechanism, v-groove bearings, and inverted gear rack for addressing debris issues. Jeremy is drawing up the new design. Marcin talked to [[Bryan Bishop]], who is currently building out the bootstrapping Austin Fab Lab, and is the first open source fab lab we encountered outside of the [[Factor e Fab Lab]].

			Development begins with collecting the development team. The goal is to spawn this team to a coherent development process, which follows the general due diligence suggested by the [[Torch Table Development Template]]. This template should serve as a repository of more-or-less finished work, where other pages should be created as work pages, and placed into the [[Category for the Torch Table]].

			New people joining the project should first view the status of the project at the [[Torch Table Log]]

			The development process is peer reviewed. For this to happen, existing designs should be submitted to forums, such as [[Open Manufacturing]], DIY CNC, CNC Zone, MechMate forum, Multimachine, Jobshophomeshop, CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO, and others.
