[ELECTRON] Proposed new club + Arduino meet up

[Kieran Wyse]

Ok Ill hold of on buying the belts. Do we need any more smooth rods and the
plate. Tom I am guessing an old printer didn't provide all that we need. If
no one has this stuff lying around , I could go to ibrox and pick it up.
Though can't remember the name of the ironmonger we discussed at the
meeting.

If some has the rods and plates I'll look at getting an extruder.

Blair I see to remember you mentioned something about a silicon tube as
well. If my memory is correct. Does anyone know how we might acquire such a
thing. BandQ?
