Looking more into cement/ cement mixer. Possibly may contact "refmin@verizon.net" Refractory Minerals Inc, referenced in Cement, to see what their takes are on some sort of alternative to lime, depending on region, to mixing a sustainable material that holds and (a)bodes well (pun intended!). Seems Refractory Minerals has changed to Phosphate Bonds, and nfo@phosphatebonds.com. Looking for best CAD software for Cement Mixer. Familiar with first iterations of Google Sketchup. Will try to get familiar with it to get cement mixer mapped out and in CAD files by 1/12/13.

Continued finding members for OSE and open source electronics hardware stuff. Generally just trying to create momentum about open source stuff, a DIY attitude, through social media sites, mainly facebook. A lot of people interested, so far I have a former electronic engineer classmate, a mechanical engineer friend/ previous classmate, a metalworker, and a distant relative who is from P.E.I. who seems to be interested. An excellent remote collaborator, all friends local very resourceful.
Got the Bill of Materials laid out basically for the Cement Mixer Updated Research and Development [age of Cement Mixer, specifically Research and Overview, in which I mapped out Project Status and Schedule under Overview, as not to overlap someone else's work in the project status/ schedule.

Filled in more information on my template. Added my resume, also added my picture that is the same associated with my Google+ account. Just had déjà-vu a to people looking back at "what people did back in that time,before such simple things were open source, and common knowledge". Read the rules of the Wiki, checked out the cement mixer, read what was there, checked the history for the page to be sure nobody currently owned the project. Started my ideas, overflowed late into yesterday morning with cement mixer/ DIY thoughts fling through my head, watched Marcin's Ted talk/ Dedicated visit part, paused on the "Open source software/ hardware" part, I have worked with a lot of the open source software stuff to a degree.
I then proceeded to check out RepRap, Lasersaur, etc, got pretty pumped as I have not been back to hardware stuff in almost two years, it has come very far!
