More details TBA on when it will be rescheduled, but suffice to say, everyone who paid for tuition today will be given a new, free ticket for the rescheduled class. Email info@workshop88.com if you have questions.
Geocaching was on the docket, but we got work done and crafted around The Workshop instead.
After some jiggering, Andrew and Kevin got a router worked into our workbench. It looks great and works like a charm.
My brother Dan and I built paracord bracelets. Each one has 8ft of paracord that can support >500 lbs. of tension. Great for people who love to backpack and camp, like me. I can’t count the number of times I’ve needed extra rope to secure a tent or a tarp.
This Sunday, starting at 2pm, our own Andrew Morrison will be teaching a class on the Physics of Music. A short description:
In this class we will explore some of the basic physics which governs the behavior of musical instruments. After exploring the science of resonance, pitch and timbre we will build some simple musical instruments out of common materials. By the end of the class you should come away with your own musical instrument and the ability to invent new musical instruments of your own design.
Tickets will be $10.00 for non-members and supporting members, and free for regular members. Material costs are TBD, but should be under $20.00. All payments will be accepted at the door.
Please let me know if you’re interested, and I’ll keep you updated!
Starting tomorrow, this Tuesday, August 24th, we’ll be doing mini-Hackathons at Workshop 88 from 6:30pm through to later in the night. We’ve got Adam, Fredo, Rudy, Jim, and me dedicated to coming out and getting some work at the workshop done tomorrow, and maybe we’ll have time some other fun stuff, too!
Hope to see you out there.

After a lot of wall scraping on Saturday (wherein Andrew and I tackled the spackle issue with great intellectual vigor), we’re finally moving onto the priming and painting portion of the project. Thanks to everyone who came out and put their time in!
Anyway, this post is about our General Meeting next Monday, which we are having, as usual. Here’s the Plancast plan: http://planca.st/68j

Is tomizzle! Be there! D&D is on an off-week, so we’ll have more people to play Settlers, Risk, XBOX, and… maybe… maybe… Axis & Allies.

Start your week off right with a Workshop 88 General Meeting! Next week, we’ll continue talking buildout projects. Also at the meeting next week: Me! So long as my car doesn’t crap out (again), leaving me stranded and crying in the driveway.
I sat in it for 20 minutes, despondent look on my face. Ask my wife.
ANYWAY.
If there’s anything you’d like brought up at the meeting, make a mention in the comments below or e-mail info@workshop88.com. For instance, I’d like to see the walls coated in gumdrops and the tables made out of candy canes & graham crackers.
Make it so.
