Next Cleaning Day

The space needs some cleaning.

On January 26th and 27 we are going to do some cleaning in the space. If would like to help clean your local hackerspace, please come on over. We'll make good use of your time, spend some time working with each other. Maybe we can even swing some refreshments.

If you'd like to add to the list of tasks below, please do.

We'll start at 12:30 on the 26th and at 9:00a on the 27th (early on Sunday to load the trash truck). but come anytime you can make time. See you soon!

If you are in an area regularly, please consider bottom-lining that area. Only people who use an area regularly know what is good, and what is trash. We need those experienced volunteers to help others know what to do to improve an area. These volunteers experienced in an area are called "bottom-liners", meaning they are responsible for making sure it gets done. If you want to be a bottom liner, please publicly claim it in below.

Bottom-liners should be here on saturday and sunday, for at least part of the day. They should develop a vision of what their space should ideally look like, and consider if they need new shelves/drawers/pegboards, etc to accomplish that. If you need organizational hardware, post about it on slack and we can coordinate fundraising for it. Organizational hardware is equipment-fundable. If you can't bottom line the whole time, maybe you can get someone to split days with you. Consult with other people who use an area to develop a plan for this space. This will help us all be on the same page

Bottom Liner plans

Bottom Liners, please write a brief synopsis of what your plans are for your space, especially if you won't be here the full time to tell people.

  • Electronics
    • Saturday Bottom-Liner: Rando
    • Sunday Bottom-Liner:
    • Overall plan for space:
  1. Eliminate any inexpensive/hand tool that fails it's primary function. Any pitted or loose tool that takes more than 30s to fix (as opposed to hack it to work,) will be tossed
  2. Pull up the non-solderable mats and make them usable as non-permanent
  3. Throw away 2 bins of those plug-in irons
  4. The scooters can find elsewhere to live
  5. The grey drawers in the parts area brought to the electronics area to use for organizing other things.
    1. They can easily hold tools like multimeters, soldering stations, etc.
    2. With some good organization separators, they can be very useful to keep things accessible.
  6. Mate the various probes, they are useless in their current situation. each should be, at a minimum, mated
  7. Rather than keep all objects categorized, create complete stations with:
    1. Bench Variable PS
    2. O-scope
    3. Bench multimeter
    4. Solder station
    5. "small parts" at each station would be nice, but that includes consumables and semi-consumables (e.g. walk-away-ables like alligator clips, etc...) so not covered.
  8. Racks (as opposed to peg-boards) for any toroidally packaged object would be great, e.g. wire, heat shrink, and anything else with a hole in it, so it can be unrolled and cut at length.
  9. The peg board is OK, but the storage for probes etc fails because it is deep instead of wide. A wider solution using the full height of the peg-board will be pursued.
  10. Ideally any powered item can be tested and status determined. this included irons for resistance, temperature, and grounded-ness
  11. While no consumables will be purchased, a list of necessary and useful ones should be created.

Notes:

  1. All the bigger equipment I've used so far, which is most of it, seems fine. I found one PS with sort of janky input, but the output was ok. I'll label it, but don't want to toss it.
  2. The back wall station, with vid and microscope etc stays as-is. I'm going to move anything that is not required for the station, however.
  3. For me, restocking all the consumables will be a different issue that I would like to tackle later.

    • Overall plan for space:
  1. Throw away broken tools (they're are many tools that doesn't work or is actively dangerous to use; these should be throw away or put away in a place with warning that they need to fixed before using).
  2. Organize the scrap bin better (if time permits come up with a solution to hold the smaller scrap pieces)
  3. Move/remove all pieces of wood that's not in scrap pile (there are several large pieces of wood next to the cnc on the left side that's tagged, but haven't been touched in months).
  4. Fix tool shelves that's underneath the miter station (currently it's wobbly and causes the tools to fall over)
  5. Clean all sawdust (lack of proper sawdust collection system and not using the shopvac means the sawdust goes everywhere; need to move all the tools and clean it all up)
