started Structural Power Cube issues with fuel getting into the engine there's a lot of air in the fuel lines filled the tank up all the way to the top and filled the fuelfilter and fuelline directly worked but I'm concerned that there might be the same problems in the future

worked with Greg on the lasersaur

added rightsized engine mounting plate and pump mounting plate in File:PCSF vert.skp

Workshop cleanup

OSE Austria showed up on our wiki, contacted Leopold Zyka per mail for future collaboration

Mon August 25, 2014

Powercube documentation startet with Danny changed orientation of Engine Mounting Tube Frame to give Muffler more space, resulted in less overhang outside the frame.

Midnight welding lessons with Devin

talked with Marcin about setting up a skype-conference with my professor about CAD-design assistance from JKU students

solenoid valves have to be opencentered which Marcin didn't tell me when first giving me the assignment and kills my previous designs which are closed centered

Marcin asked me to start designing openSource solenoid_valves for 30 gallon per min at 3000 psi pressure.

Started research on the matter. Electrical controlled valves are necessary in order to remote-control machines from the GVCS. However, the solenoid valves for the power level of interest cost about $300 per double-acting channel. There is thus A strong case for open source solenoid valves, which we could produce for probably 1/5 of that cost.
