From 10 AM to 8:30PM, prepared CEB press for video shoot on Monday - mounting cylinder, drawer, and frame inside arms. Complication due to 4" u-channel lip on verticals. Kavitha left at 3 PM. Modular supports, cam holders, and sensor holders are a welcome simplification and key to parallel development.

'''Day Goals:''' Continue [[Christmas Gift to the World]]. Deploy Modeling Team for CNC laser/router cutouts of CEB press frame. Finish Frame and Hopper interface plate. Make another order from SurplusCenter for CEB parts. Make MoKan fastener order.'''Goal Assesment from Yesterday''': Frame done for front and back face, but not u-channel lips or vertical u-channel web. Success in importing libraries to [[LibreCAD]], such as elongated frame holes. Beginning evidence of crowd collaboration possibility as in CEB drawer building - where fab drawings may be converted to DXF files for CNC torch table - using a ubiquitously accessible LibreCAD 2D package. Otherwise, drawer DXFs not done. Overall assessment: 8 hour build of complete CEB press including electronics looks completely feasible. 11 people participating so far.

Secured CNC Torch Table cutting ability from [[Ben Horton]]. Reworked frame design for CNC Torch Table fabrication, including compression chamber spacers to eliminate unique part count for spacer. Going to 3.5" u-channel weldment lips to ensure no warping occurs.  '''Week Goals:''' full CAD ready and shipped to Ben Horton for entire CEB Press. Cylinder and Hydraulics and Power Cube arrive at FeF. Secure CEB controller fabrication by Tuesday, 8PM. 5-10 Prototype requests sent by 2PM Thursday to Modeling Team.  Edmund Harris, Catarina, Addie, Smari, Vinay, Ilya, Tom Bamford, Joe Justice, Jamie Morken, Colby, Detroit Fab Lab, CowTown Computer Congress Hackerspace, Vienna Hackerspace, Giovanni Ponce, Sohil Solani, Craig at Dallas Makerspace, Tom Griffing, Dan S, David Uhlman, Kristen Turner (Ponoko), Frederico Filho, Nikolai Georgiev, Mikey Sklar, Isaiah Saxon, Rob Forney*, Peter Fox, Rahul Dinakaran, Ted @ Shopbot - 1000 Garages, Richard Lundy*.

Adding to [[Strategic Partnerships]]. Talked to [[Emily]] for 2 hours on branding work - concluding on campaign to recruit [[Project Director]] as a specific campaign. Will visit Emily about Jan 17, first half of January on Documentation and Development Guidelines development with [[Catarina]] - in preparation for graphic design with [[Emily]]. We will work out media strategy/chapters strategy at that time as well. Wrote section on Radical Transparency of Conflict Resolution Process at [[Conflict Resolution#Radical Transparency]]. Beginning on the '''[[OSE Christmas Gift to the World 2012]]'''. Getting introduced to [[Leslie Koch]] on potential [[Governor's Island]] project on urban ag + tractor. Staring [[Documentation Standards]]. Parker finishing [[True Fans Handling Process]] - sending out first email since months re 1-Day Production Run.
