Topics
Here's the list so far - please don't hesitate to add more! If you won't be able to attend, you can add your comments here or in the discussion to take part anyway :-)
Project Presentations
Let's take up to 2 × 20 minutes before each plenum to show others what we're working on! If you are interested in talking about your projects, please announce it here and/or via the Mailing List:
- <please add your idea(s)!>
- <please add your idea(s)!>
- Wonder what those four shady looking guys are doing with a dissembled electric car behind your CoMaking space?
- Don't worry; we (Anton, Basti, Julius and Pius) just want to rethink future freight transport and make it efficient, sustainable and accessible at the last mile.
- For this we decided to quit our day-jobs and build an electric urban transporter that is more agile and resource-saving than a normal car-like transporter but more powerful than a cargo bike.
- We probably won't make it to the meeting, but if you want to go for a test ride, just ask us ;)
Recap of the last plenum
Communication Channels
There have been some misunderstandings and different opinions on the question whether Mailing List or Telegram Group should be "members only".
- discuss what we need
- declare & implement the updated policy
- Martin: For me, the Mailing List and the Telegram Group are completely different and there is no reason to treat them the same way. The Telegram Group was used as and communicated as a platform for comakingspace members to communicate with other comakingspace members:
- It is called "comakingspace" for a reason.
- Even the wiki states that it is for members.
- Therefore, I see no reason in opening the group for others. If anybody has the need to communicate with a broader audience, there is a WhatsApp group called "Makers Community HD". For me, the different names of the groups already indicate the scope! With this being said, I would though not go as far as immediately removing ex-members from our group. However, I would not advertise the telegram group outside of our members community (e.g. in the WhatsApp group). To me, having an informal communication channel (such as a telegram group) with only comakingspace members is a big addition to strengthening the feeling of being a community!
- Personally, I couldn´t care less about who is on the Mailing List. Especially since it is used rarely. Even if people use it, it´s mainly for more formal communication (such as plenum announcement and summary).
- Martin: For me, the Mailing List and the Telegram Group are completely different and there is no reason to treat them the same way. The Telegram Group was used as and communicated as a platform for comakingspace members to communicate with other comakingspace members:
CNC Mill
Blacksheep offered his CNC mill (capable of milling metals!) as a loan via the mailing list.
- where could we put it?
- which steps are needed to make it available (commissioning) and when could we get it?
New (and newly available) tools at the space
=> also see "Wish List"
Collaboration possibilities
Who's not in our Mailing List or Telegram Group yet? Also check out Category:Community!
On August 31st, the CoMakingSpace gGmbH exists for two years. We should celebrate our second birthday! How about planning another OpenDay, similar to last year?

Seminar Ideas
Open Discussion
This is the place to talk about general improvements etc. - for example:
- What did I do since the last plenum?
- Luzian and Martin got the OpenScan into a usable state. It is located in the Electronics Room. When you try it, feel free to document your experiences and improve the scanner.
- Johannes and Martin upgraded the EleksMill with new endstops. It is generally working, but has some issues with noise. We ordered optocoupler boards, which should hopefully fix that. In addition, we are looking for somebody to donate a Raspberry Pi (ideally model 3 upwards) in order to be able to control the small CNC just the same way as the large one (using CNCjs)!
- What am I planning to do until the next plenum?
- What went wrong?
- What went well?
- What should get done at the space (new issues)?
