Propane weed burner I guess

No illicit drugs at the makerspace

If we can demonstrate that fire pits are in fact technically allowed, and not just practically, then we can certainly bring that information before the Board. Though even if we convene an emergency meeting of the Board (which is our right, though not my recommendation), it would almost certainly not happen in time for the party tonight.
PS: a propane fire pit would actually be acceptable (as the board is aware of specific code allowing their use), but they are overwhelmingly inferior to wood fire pits IMO.
PPS: if you have a propane weed burner @Frank (that is not associated with illicit drugs @james.a.seymour ) the garden committee may well like to borrow it in the future!
PPPS: Can use wood/charcoal in the BBQ pit.

Sure just give me a shout I can bring it up BTW no illicit or otherwise drugs were produced with said torch.
Another option is a BBQ grill surly there is no problem using one of those to roast hotdogs and marshmallows

The BBQ pit is 100% allowed. Please use appropriate caution. And know that it isn’t the best grill, but might win some accolades as the worst.
Thanks @Frank !

As the weather is clear, I’ve got 318mm (12.5") and 203mm (8") telescopes loaded in my car that people can look through or look at images from when it gets dark.
One is computerized with an open source stack, and displays to a camera/computer, the other hasn’t yet gotten there. I need to figure out a bit over a 700mm diameter worm gear, I’ve made smaller ones that work great, but our lathes handle anything that big… Maybe see about borrowing a wheel from ceramics? Anyway, That’s not for tonight.

Competition underway!!!
It looks like y’all had a blast! I was there in spirit. For those who missed, our next social gathering will be next Saturday from 10-12PM. Learn about our Committees and how to help do things around the space. Pizza, drinks, and door prizes provided.

What needs need to be met exactly? I’ve learned we’re eligible for a permit technically. I’m still researching.
Also, pictures!!!

Share the ordinances and/or applications that grant permit eligibility for the operation of a firepit to commercial entities within the city of Wichita. And we can look them over, engage in a little due diligence, and bring those findings to the Board. The Board may wish to do some discovery of its own, and should come to a decision sometime soon after.
Also, nice pics!

I really enjoyed the party as well. Any people that really enjoy should consider being part of a party committee or choosing a party or two to help out at. I was really impressed by everyone chipping in to clean after the party… it was almost as fun as the party itself 
.
I think we usually have a Christmas party of some sort in the space. Anyone up for helping herd that party? (I am usually gone the week or 2 weeks before Christmas, so I am not gonna be much help on that one.
