I bet @ReyDeFarts could cover this, isn’t it what he does for a living?
Kind of... larger scale but with different output goals.

I am currently working on incorporating home RODI and other filtration installs for local customers. It's a good service that many need, not just reefers.
including me. @ReyDeFarts might be better tho
I'd bank on you knowing more than me in regard to the at-home systems imo. You've been at it much longer than I have! I'd love to drain your brain about this and your preferences.

Let’s make this event happen together?
Originally my goal was to get people to add a second membrane to reduce water use. The club was willing to pay for the extra membrane housings I believe and people were going to buy their own membranes. Or maybe that was just my idea.

The workshop is making them not transporting them... jk... kinda.
Easily solved by just make it point to tell those going it's a important. To consider how they plan to transport their creation home in one peice.

Edit: I see you already did. Read this post first.

What kind of workshops do you all want to have this year? Of course we will always do fragging workshops about a month before we have a swap but what else do you guys want?

Would any of you be interested in running one? In the past @Scott Sweet put on a pretty sweet automation workshop.

We have discussed photo workshops and apex workshops.

Go!!!
I don't have my tank up and running anymore...but happy to contribute if people really want to know? BTW...I have a lot of stuff for sale LOL.

The pre-swaps fragging workshops make photo workshops along with apex workshops appropriate add-ons at this point. The addition of a coral care workshop which addresses water chemistry along with lighting and feeding should be considered for educating beginner aquarists. A workshop to diagnose equipment problems will provide assistance to members dealing with their systems.
