By my count there were two volunteers - Andrew and Jeremy. PCS Allan's safety guy had asked for 4 guys to load, so we're one short. They are worried about us hurting ourselves loading them. Would the best option be to slow down a bit, talk about the lockers at the next meeting, and make some firmer ...

Sorry I didn't respond sooner - I was offline for the day. I had asked for 30. I guess if you don't want them all, we can pick up fewer than 30. 5 is the minimum we can pick up. We can just throw away the ones we don't want, but it's a pain to pick them up if we can't really use them, When I had tal...

The demolition crew at PCS Allan have set aside 5 sets of 6 lockers each (30 total) for me. I need to pick them up Sunday. I had sent out an email last night but now I realize that I don't have access to my personal email from work ... darn firewalls ... so I don't know if there are 3 people availab...

Update on the lockers: - many of the 400 lockers have been claimed for other tasks at the mill. - those that are still available (at least 100) will not be removed from service until at least September. - everyone involved (but me) wants to 'wait and see' instead of setting a price and letting me bu...

The 400 or so lockers I discussed at the last meeting: - no one had thought of selling them yet, but once I asked lots of people want them - since it is easier for the purchasing agent, who is in charge of disposing of depreciated equipment, they may be shipped off to an auction place. Otherwise he ...

Looks like a great computer core. It's not a system on chip - more like a system on FOB? There must be some sort of header beneath the camera add-on. There may be a few issues interfacing to real-world Inputs and Outputs. I could see this being added to the Arduino. - Arduino control the motors, rea...

I vote yes. Or I would if voting worked for me.

The 600V three-phase does need to be stepped down to 208V three phase. There should be a Motor Control Center in the building, and you install a breaker to feed the lighting transformer. The lighting panel would be fed by the transformer secondary. With some scrounging and a trip to home depot - may...

Hi all, I don't really 'know' anyone in the group. I heard about the group from an email that Malcolm Whyte sent at the university. My wife forwarded the message, and here I am. I'm an electrical engineer, working for Potashcorp Allan. I'm not on Facebook (kinda anti-social, paranoid about security)...
