Notes
- Small laser has been fixed, fan has been replaced. Need to sort out AC water outlet - when the lasers are moved. Big laser needs a new bed and the motor isn't working. longer tube needed for the big laser head - half this has already been procured. Longer term plan for the cooling is to build a new system, this will be progressed after the laser move.
- David has some steel that can be used for worktables - this will be suitable for the long thin table.
- Forge project is at the proposal stage. Ben and David re-iterated need to finish existing projects and get the makerspace safe and more complete. We need to look at the makerspace in a more commercial way and focus on projects that are going to increase membership and get us closer to our goal of being able to afford expenses without needing grants. Information about machines should be on the wiki and printed out next to the piece of equipment. New projects should start with a public project initiation document on the wiki this can then be commented on by all and presented to the relevant committees.
