I have requested to use the Zoom Account on 1st of June from 7:30 to 9:30 for a get together.
I was thinking that we could discuss our own background/set up, share any best practice and then discuss Andrews suggestions for setting up an STL library, does that sound OK?
I will forward the zoom call details as soon as I have them

I will need to split my time between the 3D SIG and a ScOONs (Scottish group) Zoom, which overlaps it. I'm not chairing the ScOONs meeting, so I can just look in when it starts at 8pm and otherwise be in the 3D SIG meeting.
Thank you Stephen,
I think the agenda sounds good, although I wonder if the 'best practice' part might end up being a bit open ended (and long); what if we slipped that down to agenda item position number three?

That sounds like a plan :-)

I can easily move it to the 2nd, if that helps.

(No problem with the 2nd for me.)
Lets to the 2nd June then, is that OK with everybody?

Three of us met this evening and had a productive evening looking at the equipment we have used and our relative experience.
We shared examples of the issues that we were having with resin prints, including ghost lines in the printed model and warping. Although we didn't find proven solutions to our problems, it was nice to see that other people are having the same issues.
We then went on to discuss how we could build up a library of printable files for the Society and it was decided to start with a group on Thingiverse which is a public domain license free repository for 3D printing files. This is at https://www.thingiverse.com/groups/009-special-interest-group/things. We plan to upload some of our own designs over the next few weeks and encourage other members to do the same, but please only with the designers permission.
The next meeting will be in 4 weeks, where we hope to attract somebody who can advise on our problems and look at our own kit so that Tom cab see how it works.
