Maker Raft Race - August 5th 2017

I’ll be there for ~9.30 on flag making duties, that might be quickly frustrated by not being able to get the big vinyl cutter into action (rollers or not).

Thanks for the offer of possible bed - we now have solid plan that doesn’t need it. Key keg torpedoes all the way.

@dermot - reminder that you were going to do a call out to members for ratchet straps from your dimensions.

@tobyspark, @dermot - thanks for creativity and late night planning session! Going to be magnificent. Recap of plan…

  • Dermot to share notes and call for straps asap
  • Dermot to collect keykegs from Craft Brixton on Thurs afternoon
  • Friday evening, meet at space to start construction. Oars are top priority as require thought, and can’t be done atvrace site
  • rendesvouz at space early on Saturday - time tbc depending on how Friday goes. Maybe 9am?

Yes, we need to borrow some ratchet straps. These are integral to our design. They need to made from quite broad webbing.

We need 8 more straps, 38mm wide, or wider. We’ve found two in the space.

FYI the black handles on the top of the key keg scan come off by unscrewing them if that is useful.

It’s the intercontinental b/w check we need!

Something about Tom and compromising positions

Not sure why you need 38mm or wider

But if 30mm will do I have left 4 on the main table

Thanks! Will have a look later. 38mm was just the size that worked to bridge the join between the key kegs.

We won!!!
