Hello, ruza,
Good to hear from you!
Congratulations on signing your rental agreement. :) It's an exciting time.
In my experience it is best to open up the workshop to everyone. This usually attracts a lot of people who may not otherwise have heard of your space, and potentially become members. At the beginning of each workshop I give an introduction, and in it I let people know that the hackerspace is funded by member dues and dontations, and welcome people to donate any amount of money if they like. So, it is good to have a donation box. It is also good to have stickers for your hackerspace to give away so that people can put them on their laptops, street lamp poles, and everywhere -- this reminds people to come back to the hackerspace. Also, if you have any T-shirts or anything else for sale, I'll point that out. Please feel free to use the workshop as a fund-raising opportunity. My time is free -- I only ask to be reimbursed for my kits used in the workshop.
I'm still putting dates together for my workshops in Eastern Europe. Maybe the 15th or 16th of September would be good? Does that work for you?
To do a workshop, I'll need you to get the following together: - a room big enough for everyone to solder - a demo table to show all the kits that people can make - tables and chairs for people to solder at - lighting (if the room doesn't have enough) -- several lamps different lamps make for a nice feel, too - soldering irons, each with a stand and sponge (ideally one per participant, but people can share, if necessary) - wire cutters (ideally one per participant, again, people can share, if necessary) - solder (with lead is way better!, but unleaded will work if that's all you can get) - hot glue gun, with glue sticks to fit it - AA alkaline batteries (about 40 is good) - power strips (with one outlet for each solder iron, plus lighting, plus a hot glue gun, plus daisy chaining) - AC extension cords to get power to each power strip - enough printouts of the "Soldering Is Easy" comic for all participants (translate them, if you like!): http://www.tvbgone.com/mfaire/soldercomic/soldercomic.pdf
I'll bring all the kits and tools, and everything else needed.
No charge for my time. I do this 'cause I love teaching people how to make things, and love helping hackerspaces. I ask to be reimbursed for kits used during the workshop, which is between US$10 and US$30 per kit (most are US$20).
The workshop is best described by checking out what's been posted for previous workshops I've given: http://www.nycresistor.com/2010/01/15/mitch-altmans-electronics-workshop-129... http://robotbrighton.ning.com/events/electronics-workshop-with http://www.tog.ie/2010/03/electronics-workshop-with-mitch-altman-and-jimmie-... Please feel free to copy from these for publicity purposes.
Sound OK?
Please let me know what you think.
Best, Mitch.

Najpraktickejsie pre nas by to bolo spravit asi na MFF, ale to by vedel asi pasky lepsie povedat, ci by to bolo schodne. (Mitch spominal nezavazne datumy 15.9 alebo 16.9 - mne ten druhy nevyhovuje, ale samozrejme je na nas ako skupine ktory si vyberieme)
je to dobra prilezitost jak k brmlabu pritahnout dalsi lidi. Dnes na prednasce o Fab6 se objevili dalsi, ktere projekt brmlabu zajima. Jak Mitch pise pokud budeme mit nejake brmlab-related zalezitosti jako stickery, tricka, propagacni zalezitosti, vytistene materialy. Dalsi napady?
Tricka a stickery su nutna vec. Problem trochu je, ze som do konca tohto tyzdna mimo Prahu, takze ich nemozem vybavovat. Ked ich zacnem vybavovat 6.9 neviem ci sa to do 15teho stiha :-/
Nevahejte se zapojit, pojdte byt u toho
Suhlas! ;-)
nejrychleji bysme asi meli zapracovat na tom vyhlaseni datumu a casu a vyhlasit to (abclinuxu apod) aby jsme ziskali predstavu kolik bude zajemcu

Na MFF nejsou dilenske prostory, pouze prednaskove. Pokud bychom tam meli pajet, museli bychom zajistit, ze zcela urcite zadny nabytek a pokud mozno ani podlaha nedojde uhony pod necimi nesikovnymi rukami. Umime to?
Takovouhle vec uz nemuzu delat neoficialne, musel bych domluvit se spravou budov, predtim ale musim mit tohle vyresene a imho noviny na stole nestaci a nic lepsiho, ceho bychom meli zasobu, mne nenapada. Vas ano?

to sou prostory kde jsem osobne nebyl, tak nedokazu posoudit jejich vhodnost. Jestli to tam nekdo znate, tak to zkuste zjistit a pripadne zajistit. Muzu tam jiste zavolat i sam, ale asi lepe aby to komunikoval nekdo kdo ma predstavu o jakych prostorach je rec.

Ja tam taky nikdy nebyl, vis na nejakem z tech mist o nekom, nezavolal bys tam? Jestli ne, take tam muzu zkusit zavolat, ale nikoho tam neznam.
Volal jsem, vysledky nasledujici:
- v DOXu pokud to neni vystava chteji komercni pronajem - takze to pada - Meet Factory je vstricnejsi. Je k dispozici atelier (4 hole zdi a beton, 40m2) a mozna bude k dispozici divadelni zkusebna ( 120m2, guma na podlaze, pajeni pry ok, maximalne se neco hodi na podlahu). Jsou schopni pry zajistit i nejake stare stoly apod, dame-li vcas vedet. Ted hacek: pry to nesmi byt z principu zadarmo. Komercni najem po nas chtit nebude, kdyz to otevreme residentnim umelcum (mozna 1-4 lidi?), ale pry mame prijit s nejakym navrhem (nechce rict cislo). Vyrizuje to reditelka (velmi v pohode) Jindra Zemanova, 731181916. Ocekava ze nekdo zavola s nabidkou. Je to na vas, rado :)

Tusis, co tim mysli, "z principu zadarmo"? Stacilo by treba symbolicke vstupne 10kc/osoba, nebo jaky z toho mas dojem?
Do hlavy ji nevidim. Je to takova vesela pani od rany.
Muj osobni pocit je, ze 10Kc/osobu by byla trochu provokace. 50Kc/os je porad v souctu smesna castka (20 lidi max.?), ale uz to zni seriozne a asi tech $2,5 nikoho nevytrhne v porovnani s $20 za kit. Ale to je pouze muj dojem.
A na ty prostory se urcite chcete jit podivat nez na neco kyvnete. Je to trochu dira.

Nabidl bych 500kc za pronajem a jak to hradit bych si rozmyslel pak (kdyby to slo jinak nez vstupnym, bylo by to skvele).
A na ty prostory se urcite chcete jit podivat nez na neco kyvnete. Je to trochu dira.
Mel byste nekdo cas tam se mnou nekdy zajit?
Jeste predtim bych se ale chtel zeptat, jestli nekdo jeste nema napady na mista, kde by to slo udelat zadarmo - nemate nekdo kontakty treba na FELu nebo jinde na CVUT? Vzdyt by to nemel byt takovy problem... Co se zeptat SiliconHillaku? Dali bychom jim na web workshopu male logo. ;) Jestli nekdo nekoho znate, ptejte se, prosim.

Jo, presne to ma napadlo. Skusit este FEL, SH, mozno dokonca fyzikalnu sekciu MFF.
seriozne a asi tech $2,5 nikoho nevytrhne v porovnani s $20 za kit. Ale to je pouze muj dojem.
1.) proc pocitame vstupne v dolarech, kdyz sme v cechach? 2.) Ko nechce davat $20 za kit, tak si vemte Arduino a IR ledku (+pripadne tranzistor na zesileni) a ja vemu TV-B-Gone kod pro arduino (ktery je navic v jak v NTSC tak v PAL verzi a prepina se pomoci spinace, kod si muzete stahnout, nebo vam ho za $10 prodam na miste :-P ). Kdo nema arduino, tak si muze vsechny komponenty (ATtiny85v stojí 50kč a programátor máme) koupit v cechach a z nejakeho duvodu je GME.cz obcas i levnejsi nez radioshack, jedine co se nekoupi je tistak, kterej se da stahnout (stejne jako seznam soucastek a firmware) na ladyada.net a pomoci laserove tiskarny toner-transfer metodou prenest na prazdny PCB. No v zaveru kdyz to tak pocitam, tak tech $20 ty namaze asi prece jenom odpovida kdyz to vemete tak, ze dostanete kompaktni kit (i kdyz imho by mensi byt mohl).
peace
Aaa :-) Altman je radnej hippie... zrovna pred par dnima sem si rikal, ze by stalo za to s nim osobne hodit rec. BTW krome TV-B-Gone taky delal brainmachine, coz je vcelku jednoduchy projekt v sekci ideas a na jeho realizaci v podobe workshopu by nam stacily zasoby ledek, resistoru, slunecnich bryli, starych sluchatek a mikrokontroleru attiny13 + napajeni.

Hello, ruza,
Good to hear from you!
Congratulations on signing your rental agreement. :) It's an exciting
time.
In my experience it is best to open up the workshop to everyone. This usually attracts a lot of people who may not otherwise have heard of your space, and potentially become members. At the beginning of each workshop I give an introduction, and in it I let people know that the hackerspace is funded by member dues and dontations, and welcome people to donate any amount of money if they like. So, it is good to have a donation box. It is also good to have stickers for your hackerspace to give away so that people can put them on their laptops, street lamp poles, and everywhere -- this reminds people to come back to the hackerspace. Also, if you have any T-shirts or anything else for sale, I'll point that out. Please feel free to use the workshop as a fund-raising opportunity. My time is free -- I only ask to be reimbursed
for my kits used in the workshop.
I'm still putting dates together for my workshops in Eastern Europe. Maybe the 15th or 16th of September would be good? Does that work for
you?
To do a workshop, I'll need you to get the following together:
- a room big enough for everyone to solder
- a demo table to show all the kits that people can make
- tables and chairs for people to solder at
- lighting (if the room doesn't have enough) -- several lamps different
lamps make for a nice feel, too
- soldering irons, each with a stand and sponge (ideally one per
participant, but people can share, if necessary)
- wire cutters (ideally one per participant, again, people can share, if
necessary)
- solder (with lead is way better!, but unleaded will work if that's all
you can get)
- hot glue gun, with glue sticks to fit it
- AA alkaline batteries (about 40 is good)
- power strips (with one outlet for each solder iron, plus lighting,
plus a hot glue gun, plus daisy chaining)
- AC extension cords to get power to each power strip
- enough printouts of the "Soldering Is Easy" comic for all participants
(translate them, if you like!): http://www.tvbgone.com/mfaire/soldercomic/soldercomic.pdf

I'll bring all the kits and tools, and everything else needed.
No charge for my time. I do this 'cause I love teaching people how to make things, and love helping hackerspaces. I ask to be reimbursed for kits used during the workshop, which is between US$10 and US$30 per kit (most are US$20).
The workshop is best described by checking out what's been posted for previous workshops I've given: http://www.nycresistor.com/2010/01/15/mitch-altmans-electronics-workshop-129... http://robotbrighton.ning.com/events/electronics-workshop-with http://www.tog.ie/2010/03/electronics-workshop-with-mitch-altman-and-jimmie-... Please feel free to copy from these for publicity purposes.
Sound OK?
Please let me know what you think.
Best, Mitch. _______________________________________________ Brmlab mailing list Brmlab@brmlab.cz http://rover.ms.mff.cuni.cz/mailman/listinfo/brmlab
