We designed and cnc routed a standing work table from a single 4'x8' sheet of 1/2" Baltich Birch plywood.

The layout was completed using LibreCAD and we ended trying various profiling sequence and using small tabs to keep the smaller routed parts from moving during the routing operation.

We exclusively use KiCAD, and open source electronic design software suite, to draw our schematics and layout our PCBs. We also use OSHPark, an domestic PCB batching company that uses US based PCB manufactures, to manufacture our boards.

Si7021 is a simple moisture and temperature sensor IC that communicates though I2C.

We especially thanks IO Rodeo for patiently helping us get started on using KiCAD.

Suds-Lab was briefly formed to serve as a learning experience for gathering people from different disciplinary backgrounds and working on a common project. We figure soap is something everyone uses and the process of making soap is enjoyable for all.

We made a batch of soap using 6mm acrylic soap molds, and over the next few weeks we designed the logo and setup a simple website.

Tux-Lab assisted in converting the FDM printed brackets used in BlueEagleLabs's Kossel Clear 3D Printer, into equivalent laser cut acrylic brackets to give it better rigidity and shorten the production cycle.

Various CO2 laser engravers were evaluated.  Ultimately we feel the ULS system offers the best value, has the best local support, and is made in USA.

A two way solenoid valve was installed to enable the control, through CNC Controller M-Code, of opening and closing the pneumatic 5C collect chuck.  A roller lever switch, wired in parallel, was also added to the boot padel, to enable manual control.
