This is an introduction to a technique of shaping leather to create a hardened shape that is used for not only masks, but cases, holsters, bags, and anything else that should maintain its shape.nnNo previous experience with leather is needed as we will go over all the cutting and forming.

Folks, I'm setting up a game night on Friday January 27th, starting at 7PM down at the Hive. nnI'm planning on bringing a few lighter games and a few more involved games. I'll have something for 3 players and I believe Ultimate Werewolf can have up to 63 players. nnFeel free to bring any other games you might want to play as well when you come down.nn- Will B, Lounge Wardenn

Brad Walsh will be giving a "hands on" talk to introduce our newest additions to the electronics area; Rigol DS1054Z oscilloscope and a Rigol DG1022 function generator. These new purchases bring us into the modern age. (If the logic analyzer arrives we may even talk about that also).nnEventbrite link:nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/hive13-new-electronics-gear-intro-tickets-33177944124nnNo charge for this talk, but you get what you pay for. This will just be basic oscilloscope operation and we will examine some simple circuits.
