[DIYbio] Re: Perth (Australia) Group

FIRST EVENT:

Shall we hold our first event?

We have a tentative booking at The Artifactory for Saturday 20FEB2016 starting 3pm.

Hosting a hack-sprint would be fairly easy to set-up.

Attendees can construct Dremel-fuge centrifuges, inoculation loops and 3D print micro-pipettes. There is also the option for alcohol burners or bioreactors (as per the post by harrisotle). These would be "shiny things" for attendees to take home.

We could construct a Vertical Garden as per guidance by hirsch as a Group Project.

If there are enough people, there can be a side-lecture covering future planning or bio-safety.

Finish up with a BBQ and drinks.

Artifactory has CNC mills and 3D printers, I'm not sure of the print/mill time and we will need to check the material costs.

I would be aiming at $20-30/person. Casual attendance at the venue costs $10/person/day and the remaining $10-20 would be to cover materials. I don't want any one individual to be out of pocket...

What does everyone thing?
