For this week's meeting, our main topic was physical security with the DIY Lock Picks project.

After a bit of discussion we made our way over to Strang Park, behind the Johnson County Library to get to work. The park didn't have any power outlets, but, with a couple of work/head lamps and some hand files, we were able to make a little progress.

While possible to make the lock picks by hand filing, our power tools would have made the job much faster. A few pics below:

February 2020 meeting

Hey, howdy, hi!


As discussed in January's meeting, we're looking for project ideas that are small enough to be portable and able to be completed in public spaces. So, bring your idea(s) so that we may discuss and vote on which one(s) we'll focus on this quarter. Also, remember that they should be able to be completed within the quarter.


Oh! A couple of other things we touched on were meeting times, and possible change in meeting venue. Starting in February, the meeting will begin at 6 P.M. to give people a little extra time to get there.

As for relocating, I'm not sure if that's still on the table (correct me if I'm wrong, Joel) but if anyone has an opinion on that, please let us know.

Looking forward to seeing all the project ideas.

Until next week, cheers!
