* new glass etch - print Dr. Frost - verify - make sure it works on our own for PLA on normal glass

- The best recipe we have is:
- 1. clean slide with ethanol (200 proof is what we used)
- 2. soak in neat  [3-92-aminoethylamino)propyl]trimethoxysilane for 15 min.
- 3. rinse with toluene
- 4. let dry under ambient conditions over night

Create Spec sheet/operation manual for the line of MOST OS syringe pumps
meet with Dr. Heiden's group

start background on Automated microscope stage literature review - fill in spec sheet comparison chart with costs and do a lit. search on the instrumentation -- look for things like applications, etc.
Create Spec sheet for the line of MOST OS automated microscope stage
meet with Dr. Heiden's group, C404 noon

Jason

Build the commercial recyclebot and test with packet of pellets -write a short protocol on how to use it with links to its website -- example: [1]
Then test 100% PLA from the open bag
Look up properties of the PLA for all bags and post here with references PLA for 3-D printing:MOST
Mass a collection of 10 mech test strips let me know the value
Make 10 samples of filament of ~0.5kg each from 1 to 100% c-PLA
Learn 3D printing from Ben
Make 10 samples for each filament fraction mech test strips
Learn mech testing from Bas
Pull the 100 samples
Make one pretty graph - submit for prize
