Janyuary-February Goals for Torch Table

Introduction

As the workshop nears completion and the inside wall for the utility space is being put up, here are my commitments to the torch table, and CEB project, development.

Personally, I've been publishing the Factor e Live Distillations series - which is critical to laying the groundwork for OSE collaboration, so I prioritized it above the CEB fabrication torch table. This produced a month delay in the Torch Table.

CEB Press Deployment Timeline

• January 25 - rest and post these commitments, lay out plan for torch table; finish 3D design on Torch Table; publish Distillations Part 7

• 26, Mon - Picked up Nathan; basically finished bricking-in the utility area; worked till 8 PM - too late - as too tired next day
• 27 Tuesday - ordered passport pictures, worked on publicity material for 1000 Squared, got Nathan settled in; went food shopping to Jamesport; did Prototype one of open source v-grafting tool
• 28 Wednesday - Got initial 3D of torch table from Jeremy; prepared hot water tank; wrote part of Solar Turbine distillation;
• 29 Thursday - Specify Sweiger parts for torch table;
• publish CEB marketing plan; Order bolts for torch table; Start Babington Installation - Install Linux, LinuxCNC, and Test Motors for Torch Table;publish Torch Table Marketing Plan ; Publish distillatins on OSE Business Model; Assemble torch table frame; order torch head; do Sawmill Project Distillation
• 30 Friday - Order bearings for torch table;Order gears for Torch tableOrder bolts for torch table;Mount rail and gear rack on torch table; Go To Jamesport; Collaborative Development Process Distillation
• 31 - ; publish Distillations on Solar Turbine project; post design for review to Jack C, DIY CNC groupPick up metal for torch table, sawmill, and steam engine; Babington - me; Shower - rest of team; Publish Lathe design; Start assembling torch table gantry; Distillations on Marketing Plan
