Consent Agenda

Newly proposed agenda items appear in the consent agenda. Any member present at the meeting may pull an item out of the consent agenda for discussion, at which point it goes under "New Business". If nobody objects to the solutions presented by the consent agenda, everything in the consent agenda passes by consensus. Items that have more than one proposed solution should be moved to the "New Business" section.

Any member may edit this wiki page and place an item on the agenda. However, discussion of agenda items should be done via Slack. The cut-off time for addition to or revision of the consent agenda items is 48 hours prior to the meeting. Please note, agenda items (Consent, New, or Old) that request spending $250 or more must include a section on "Relevance to our tax exempt purpose".

NB1 Description (James Waldron )

Problem:  Lack of machine tools for drawing out in the Blacksmith Shop.  I propose a Pneumatic Power Hammer for the Blacksmith Area.  To facilitate drawing out of metal and provide an attractive tool for Members and Workshops.  Blacksmithing has proven to be very popular workshops and I believe that this addition will only enhance the draw.  I will commit to offering workshops in the spring or as soon as the corona vaccine is available to me.  These workshops have been an excellent source of workshop capital (applied to repayment of the Blacksmith Area obligation and support the class budget).

Solution: Authorize $700.00 for construction of a pneumatic power hammer.  Will use compressed air from the compressor currently existing in the lower building (power line (depending on location) and/or air line will need to be extended).  Design for a 14Kg power hammer, modified slightly for a slightly larger throat area for larger pieces.  (We have some offers of financial donation support which will be solicited and used first, but want to be sure adequate funding is available to complete the project in rapid order.)  Tooling (anvils and strikers) will be fabricated as needed in the Welding shop.

Relevance to our tax exempt status: None

Proposed Motion: I move that $700.00 be allocated for construction of a pneumatic power hammer.
