 Grave produced a The [[http://rebus.hydrus.uberspace.de/edinburghhacklab/General%20Holder%201%20-%205mm%20acrylic.DXF |linked file]]. It contains a pattern that needs to nest on an acrylic sheet 300mm x 620mm.
 Find a way to setup the pieces that a maximum number, can be fitted on to sheet. We need to cut on our laser cutter 250 pieces of it.

 ====== challenge: Frame Construction ======
 A frame needs to be built to hold the waterfall. Currently the idea is to make the 4 black shelving stands (currently in the storeroom) into two A-frames. Each A-frame would be made by tilting 2 stands towards each other and bracing horizontally. These then have to be joined together at a fixed distance of > 2.1m (the length of the waterfall itself).
