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; edited publicity material for 1000 Squared from Matthew
  • 28 Wednesday - composed initial 3D of torch table with Jeremy, updated sourcing info on Torch Table; prepared hot water tank; wrote part of Solar Turbine distillation
  • 29 Thursday - continued transcript of Solar Turbine project by noon; Finished 3D torch table with Jeremy by 2; work on water tank - close in water tank, add fittings till 6 - worked till 7; need thread tape; did not publish BOM for torch table, for gantry
  • 30 Friday - completed Solar Turbine Distillation transcript; continued Babington and shower installation ; water tank moved in to workshop;
  • 31 Saturday - Publish Solar Turbine Distillation; get metal for sawmill and torch table from Sweiger; get firewood; install Babington and water tank
