Last weekend was at the Raleigh Amateur Radio Society Festival, aka RARSfest. We had a booth with a Learn to Solder Station lead by Scott Hall. It was a great event with a great turnout and we appreciate everyone that volunteered their time to help out! And special thanks to Pete Soper for hooking us up with some great pictures!

Hole lot of venting going on!
For those of you that don’t know, SplatSpace has an awesome laser cutter that has been out of commission for the last few months. Why? Because we needed a hole.More specifically, we need a ventilation hole knocked through the wall to the outside.Last week, Chris and shaw were able to provide us with such a hole. Whether he used tools, fists, telepathy, or a combination of all 3, I do not know, but we now have a working vent for which to hook our laser up to. Below are some pics. Thanks guys!
Game on!
For the last couple of months, Splatspacers have been participating in a Teen Tech program called “Game On!” at the Main Branch of the Durham County Library. Every week a few members have been meeting with a group of teenagers to work with them on the basics of computer game design.
Unintended Consequences Of Names
SplatSpace member David Bradway had the upcoming blessing/delima of determining a name for his new child. In order to facilitate the best decision on a name with the fewest future consequences of being ridiculed as the child gets older, he decided to create this website: namechecker.colab.duke.edu. You enter in a full name and it shows you results of potential consequences with initials, e-mail addresses, married names, etc. It’s a really cool project, so be sure to check it out! Also, he has the code up on GitHub if you wanna check out how it was written and if you want to contribute to this awesome project! Thanks David!
