Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Mar 2019 Posts: 200 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2019 Posts: 200 | I have volunteered to be the Tech Coordinator this year. I want to take requests for potential topics to be covered, and match them up with presenters.
If you have a topic to request, PM me. If you have a topic you wish to present, PM me. Once topics and presenters are matched up, I'll post the sessions to be presented here.
RTFI! I want to use PMs so this message thread doesn't become unmanageable as has occurred in previous years.
I have obtained a nice roll-around dry-erase easel for presentations, and have video projectors, PA speakers, and other equipment available if needed.

Looking forward to the "mad scientist" demonstrations.  The ones you did previously on plating and anodizing where great!
