This is part of the Noisebridge Booth for Maker Fair 2015 project
Recap
The project continues.
We worked on cutting the tabletop and substructure and started joining parts together. We had a good group and hopefully everyone that attended learned something new about woodworking, measuring, and the problems involved with both.

Goals and Tasks
Tabletop and Sublayer Cut Continues
We are going continue on making the top logo surface that will later be routed to for the resin Noisebridge logo, and the structural sublayer that will host the LEDs and the electronics. This time we should definitly have time to get out the plate (Biscuit) joiner and have a chance for everyone in attendance to learn how to use this great tool.
expected process
cut two 2' 6" x 5' 0" panels out of finish plywood (in progress) cut two 2' 4.5" x 4' 10.5" panels out of finish plywood (3/4" smaller on all sides than the finish layer. (in progress) The order of the cutting is important as we need to be left with long pieces of finish plywood. use a PLATE (BISCUIT) JOINER to create the 5' x 5' panels. clamp so that the panels are flush and store on a flat surface for the next build night.
materials/notable tools needed
3/4 finish and C grade plywood wood glue skill saw and cutting guide plate joiner Number 20 plate joiner biscuits
Resin test part 2
We will light up the new resin test pieces that we made last week and see how to proceed with the resin pigments going forward.
Reference
Here is a brief video showing the plate (Biscuit) joiner and same process we will use to make our table top https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5jFkNIOhuQ
Longer video that explains some situations where you would use a biscuit joint and why. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utEGeY-cWrg
