Abstract:	
		*** NOTE: CHANGE OF VENUE ***

		opposite 30 Frencham St, Downer. The sign on the
		driveway says "ACT Motor Trades Association". There is
		a map at
		http://www.makehackvoid.com/community/our-space#location
		 
		
		*** NOTE: CHANGE OF VENUE *** 
		
		MakeHackVoid is a Canberra group dedicated to hardware
		hacking - modifying existing things and making new
		things to do neat, cool stuff. Now, thanks to
		co-operation from the ACT government, they have a shed
		in Downer to work in. This allows sharing of tools,
		collecting useful equipment and resources, and a
		well-equipped workshop for projects. 
		
		This evening the MakeHackVoid members will be showing
		CLUG members around the facilities, explaining the
		benefits of membership, showing off some of the
		members' projects, and demonstrating some of the shared
		facilities including the CNC mills that are member
		projects. 
		
		MHV is still organising their heating system for winter.
		Although there are heaters in the space it is still
		prone to be somewhat cold at night. Attendees are
		advised to rug up! 

Venue:		Room N101
		Computer Science and Information Technology Building
		North Road
		The Australian National University

		See http://clug.org.au/ for more directions and a map

Food/drink:	Pizza and soft drink/juice. Come hungry, and bring 
		about $6 to cover the cost of your share if you 
		want some.
