TO DO LIST

THINGS YOU CAN BRING THAT WOULD HELP

  • “Shoe Box”-style plastic boxes. Nicer ones from Home Depot or even dollar store ones. We're not picky. If we had 20 of these show up, I'm sure we'd find a use for at least 20 more.

Next Makerspace Maintenance Punch List **(NO DATE YET)**

  • Clear off main two tables, and refresh the paper tops (DO FIRST)
  • Take garbage to dumpster (DO SECOND)
  • Paint Marker an “MA” on tools that don't have it, so that they're easier to identify
  • Reorganize green tool shelf - re-optimize cubbies to make more sense
  • Go through the Pallet Racks a little bit - clean up/consolidate where possible
    • Assuming some space is freed up here, move some extraneous things into it as “deep storage” (i.e. all but one of the totes of “wire bundles”, etc.)
  • A general going-through of the shelves:
    • Consolidate things that need to be consolidated
    • Purge things that need to be purged
    • label things that need to be labeled

General Space Infrastructure

  • General cleanup (i.e. the kind of thing that should happen frequently- every week or three…)
    • Empty garbage into dumpster (all of the cans, so we can fill them up again)
    • Tidy all workbench surfaces
    • Shelf organization/labeling
      • Keep generally similar things together. If something's in the wrong place, get it to the right (or at least a right-er) place.
      • Contain loose things into containers where possible
      • LABEL BOXES/CONTAINERS/SHELVES: just use a piece of masking tape & a Sharpie.
  • literally work on anything on the fixme list
  • Sort bins of random stuff into where the random stuff actually goes

Shop Zone

  • Tool organization - any improvements are welcome!
  • Electrical wiring for the “new” 220V stick welder (convert its plug to something better? L6-30? - check with John K.?)
  • Build a nice table add-on/fence for the Enco Drill Press?
  • Measure T-slot nuts for the Enco Drill Press. See of additional ones are available, or maybe make some. We had some, and then they may have disappeared. Re-check

"Hardware" Wall

  • Fastener Organization & labeling

Electronics/Digital Zone (general)

Computers/Digital Fabrication

  • Complete RepRap Snappy
  • Make some kind of filament storage solution? (clear plastic tote w/holes & gaskets, and a bunch of color-changing silica gel??)
  • Figure out steps needed to make the K40 Laser Engraver chooch safely & reasonably
    • Move the surge strip powering that stuff to the front of the cart.
    • Add an Emergency stop?
    • Figure out water pump/alarm stuff (short version: water pump is running, but flow alarm is triggering? need better pump? replace alarm? right now alarm is shorted out in order to test functionality…)

Electronics

  • Organize components better?
  • Organize electronics tools better - electronics bench is a good start at this…
  • Figure out power supply pinout for prototyping station. - We have a picture of the pinout. Fabricobble a replacement or otherwise find one.

AV Stuff

  • Figure out condition of donated microphones - parts needed? parts available?

This Wiki

  • Update entries that need updating
  • Delete entries that need to be deleted
  • Add entries that need to be added (use the Tool Submission Form for Equipment)
  • Add photos to Equipment entries? (Good for a first timer!)
  • Add/Update instructions for Equipment entries

Miscellaneous

  • Inventory First Aid supplies. Make list of recommended additions and/or replacements for anything missing.
    • There are OSHA guidelines for what should be in one for various group sizes.
  • Pallet Jack repair - if the right parts are identified, they can be ordered…

Long Term/Not any time soon

  • More/better shelving?
    • More improved use of vertical space? (not sure how to accomplish this without stairs/ladders)
    • Any new shelving project should have a budget, rough drawing, and an explanation of where it will go…
