Day 2 – GMF

Day 2 at the Global Methane Forum

Hi Everyone,

It’s morning here in Toronto, and the GMF technical sessions have kicked off.  We have morning and afternoon sessions, followed by some network opportunities.  I already have a few specific people I’m going to target for introductions.

We definitely have very good attendance today – the oil & gas technical session I am currently sitting in is almost 100% full.

Since I added the ability for users to register and subscribe to the blog, a few of you have taken advantage of it.  We have 17 subscribers registered so far.  Subscribing will allow you to edit your previous posts, and you can change your avatar and a few other things as well.  Eventually we give other users associated with Freedom Motors the ability to post as well.  This could be potential business partners, customers, etc. Continue reading “17 Subscriber Accounts”

A grinding we will go…

Hello Everyone,

As part of our process for developing a low-volume engine builds, we must get our rotary housings’ inner trochoid ground and lapped to a specific tolerance.  Our designs require a less than [proprietary] variance in the epitrochoid of the rotor housing.  (Sorry, I cannot share the details, this is information that is yet to be patented.)  I will say that very few machine shops exist that can meet our specs.  I only found one in Northern California.  There was one in Los Angeles that did this work for Freedom Motors in the past, but they are out of business.

New Blog Features

Blog Accounts

Hi Everyone,

I’ve enabled some new features on the FM blog.  You can now register your own user name – this gives you the ability to add comments without having to put your username and email each time.  Also, you can go back and edit comments you previously posted without time limits.  You can still post anonymously, but it will only give you a 10 minute time window to edit the comments after it is posted.  Of course, if you ever want to edit or delete an old comment, you can just shoot me an email and I’ll take care of it.

Freedom Motors is Hiring!

Hi Everyone,

Yes it is true, we are going to start collecting resumes (we already have a few).  We have 2 positions for immediate staffing needs:  an experienced machinist and a mid-career technician – these will be full-time positions.  More details on the job descriptions and candidate requirements will be released soon – this blog post is the first announcement.  I’m working on a job posting/application system for our website (and still dreaming of the day I can hire another IT guy to help me) where these jobs will be posted.  In the meantime, feel free to send me resumes of anyone you know who is looking for work in these areas (my email is on the sidebar to the right).

That’s my only major update for today…but FM is moving forward and our plans are picking up momentum!

Best Regards – Dave
