Discussion

Need to keep in mind minimizing congestion at the front of the shop

Bike Corral

  • Can move the nice parts cabinet to free up space
  • Can make a second railing to box the bikes in
  • Make a ceiling for the corral for a storage location for car racks
    • May need to move the new tires
    • Can result in added space for a buletin board

Tires

  • Can call a couple of places to see if they take them, what they charge
    • Ricky Called D&D’s (Under 62nd street bridge) and Liberty
      • D&D’s just takes them to Liberty it sounded like
      • Liberty charges $0.50 per tire even though they are just bicycle tires
  • EAB Hooks?
    • Should EAB projects have a seperate section of hooks?
    • We can have a volunteer task be to rearrange bikes and put the EAB projects in one single area
    • The benefit is to make it easier to know what bikes are what when searching for a new project
  • Sand-blaster
    • May want to take on this project during the winter when the shop is less hectic
    • If one is available we can try to get it and then store it until we are able to set it up this winter
  • Compressor Lines
    • 10 foot sections for a total span of 50 feet with a T joint at each junction
    • Will be about $100 for materials to install the piping, hardware, and quick connects
    • Will want to get air-pressure guages, which will add cost
  • Red Box
    • We want to organize our tools better and the red tool-chest does not seem to be doing the job
    • Consider reorganizing this as a winter project
    • Can consider options and bring them to the next meeting

Things we need

  • Zip Ties
  • Pins for chain tool
