Consent Agenda


Any Board Member may make a motion in the Consent Agenda.  The purpose of the Consent Agenda is to propose motions that have been discussed by Board Members in advance and/or are expected to pass without objection.  If the item does not fit this description, it should be proposed in New Business. Discussion of Consent Agenda items should be done via Slack prior to the meeting.  Any Board Member present at the meeting may request that an item be moved from the Consent Agenda to New Business.  The motions in the Consent Agenda (after any items are moved to New Business) may be passed as a group if there are no objections.   The cut-off time for addition to or revision of a Consent Agenda motion is 48 hours prior to the meeting. Any motion that requests spending $250 or more must include a section on "Relevance to our tax exempt purpose".

Open Discussion


Machine Access Controls Project:

  • Follow up on 02-24-2021: Delays due to snow storms but not ready to demo yet.
  • Follow up on 03-31-2021: Jim showed the prototypes.  Dave suggested we put it on table saw in Pville.  One could be repurposed to make a 3 phase version.  Nothing to vote on at this time.
  • Follow up on 04-28-2021: Dave suggests putting it one on table saw and one on the miter saw for testing purposes.  Jim will get prototype up and running in the next few weeks.  
  • Follow up on 05-26-2021: First unit ready to go for beta period.  Has an override button it during trialing.  Need a couple of static IP addresses for Purcellville.  One for table saw and one for mitre saw.  
  • Follow up on 06-30-2021: Jim still working on it.  Has had family in town.
  • Follow up on 07-28-2021: Jim gave additional update.  Jim to test control box on Mitre and Table saws in Purcellville
  • Report on First Month Usage.  Additional units can be constructed for between $95 and $135 each.  (Depends on phase and current.  Single phase 20 Amp units are less expensive than 3 phase 40 Amp units.  Units for more than 40 Amps will need a separate quote based on the cost of the contactor.)  Android application is complete.  iPhone app needs to be compiled and tested (need an Apple computer and an iPhone for this).  Currently, I am the only person with the phone app (Android).  If we decide to proceed, we need to create a data base of users and their password (I believe we decided to use their Makersmiths Wifi password - available from Wild Apricot (?) ) and roll out the application to our user base.   Production units will not have an override button (or it will be disabled when we have essentially complete roll-out of the application).  Some machines may need a disconnect for changing blades or other maintenance.
  • Suggest we mark this initial proof of concept project complete and formally start a new project if we decide to proceed.


Matters Arising from Review of Bylaws and Standing Rules For Discussion

  • Number of Proxies per person
  • Definition of Officer roles beyond "...as the Board Directs"


Door Log Results for Leesburg and Purcellville

  • Results for 2020 and 2021
  • Estimated and Actual (sort of) hours the facilities were open
    • Some folks do not use the box (they do not use the touchscreen to show the facility open)
    • There were some power failures resulting in the units being off-line
    • There was at least one instance of power fluctuations that messed up the current time base in Purcellville.  Rebooting solved that problem.
    • I think the Leesburg unit is currently off-line. (for about the last 5 days or so).
    • Sometimes folks forgot to touch close and the facility showed open overnight.
    • Actual numbers are probably somewhere between Estimated and Recorded Time - trending towards Recorded Time
    • Amzon Skill (Skill = Makersmiths Status, "Alexa, what is the space status?") is logging about 1 use per month.
