and a little FAQ

Looking for a little bit more clarity about the tasks in Oakland 5/11 and 5/12:

(1) What TIME do you want people there for breakdown 5/11 and load 5/12?
(2) Any tools etc. people should bring? (Our own power screwdrivers, gloves, etc.?)
(3) Where exactly is American Steel?


1) I would plan on 10am...but call Hudzo before you show up, he often statys late and then gets a little later start....Maybe someone else will have an actual start time
Hudzo: 415.706.7138

2) volunteers have been using Hudzo's tools but an extra set of basic tools couldn't hurt, drill, hammer....

3) American Steel

Oakland at 1960 Mandela Parkway Bay #3 / 20th St. (the entrance is located on 20th St.).

The first bay is Dan Das Man's and then you should be able to see the monkeys way at the back (on the Mandela Parkway side) of the 3rd Bay... Past the planet organics trucks.
