New (and newly available) tools at the space

• Laser cutter is here! -> needs some work
• New chop saw still needs 1-2 weeks as the received one needs to be replaced because of a broken part

=> also see "Wish List"

Collaboration possibilities

Who's not in our Mailing List or Telegram Group yet? Also check out Category:Community!

Let´s use the time after the Plenum to create new Photos (see also issue #118)

Issues

closed issues since the last plenum
new issues since the last plenum

• most urgent (besides the Tor 4 issues): #191 - commissioning the new chop saw
• Lukas would appreciate any feedback on a new T-shirt design - who would buy one? :-)

Wiki

Please share your experiences with just about anything - the more people are creating wiki content together, the better!
=> have a look at current "wiki" labeled issues where help is especially welcome :-)

Also check out current projects that are looking for collaborators if you're a team player!

• After the move, we need to update quite some wiki pages. Most of them should be in Category:Facilities, but we will also have to update tool and machine pages
