Here comes the rain again…
Posted in General on Apr 18th, 2012
HOWEVER…we have a new roof on top of the metalshop and we are dry. Dry as a bone in the desert dry. Dry as in no rain where rain shouldn’t be. Now for finish coat of paint and putting this buildout into hyperdrive. Big thanks to T-Mac for putting the money down to get us […]

We have a commitment and more importantly action from our property owner on fixing the roof. His stated plan is to try for a green roof, but we’ll see what happens with the contractors bid from yesterday. This has allowed us to move forward with buildout at a higher confidence level than in prior weeks. This week […]

A hackerspace according to the all knowing Wikipedia.org is found to be: A hackerspace or hackspace (also referred to as a hacklab, makerspace or creative space) is a location where people with common interests, often in computers, technology, science, digital or electronic art (but also in many other realms) can meet, socialise and/or collaborate. For the purposes of Chatt*lab and our content, we will use makerspace most of the time simply for the reason that it is more palatable […]

We have secured some amazing space on St. Elmo Avenue at the base of Lookout Mountain. We are in the process of building it out. A lot of folks are asking how they can help and this is so inspiring. Thank you so much! As they say timing is everything and it really applies to […]
