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.
- Pie-in-the-sky request: Another nice rolling tool chest like our Craftsman one? If somebody craigslists one for $50 or less, I'll reimburse you (only applicable one time. Include screenshot/printout of ad for proof of price)
General Space Infrastructure
- General cleanup
- 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 more correct) 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
- Use the new Vinyl Cutter to make a magnetic sign for the outside door.
Shop Zone
Mark all of our tools in the shop area with a clear “MA” in paint marker.- Continue repairs on the Shopsmith Mark V- parts are in, what are you waiting for?
- Move Shop Press back into the workshop area
- Start working on the new-to-us band saw from Akron Makerspace
- Figure out all the stuff it needs done to make it a viable tool
- Needs a new power cord.
- Blade is insanely rusty, but seemed to move freely?
- Robert H. started on this…
- Drill bit sorting(ok, probably not, but it does drive me crazy)
- Priority: really low, unless it's driving you crazier than me.
- Tool organization - any improvements are welcome!
- Rolling carts/stands for some bench tools (Miter saw, especially) - need to keep bench space free for the eventual 4×4 CNC Router.
- Better stand/mount for the Disc Sander?
- Better organization inside the gray bench cabinets in general
- Electrical wiring for the “new” 220V stick welder (convert its plug to something better? L6-30? - check with John K.)
- Put the Enco Drill Press back together
- Build a nice 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.
- Finish implementing Dust Collection Station.
Move the really big clamps off of the green tool shelf shelves. Either attach a mount to the sides or maybe the wall behind the press.
Electronics/Digital Zone (general)
- Fastener Organization & labeling
- Install a set of standardized tools onto laptops
- Arduino IDE
- Cura
- SignBlazer Elements (it's effectively free…)
- Pronterface (handy for debugging DIY printers)
- Inkscape (useful for designing stuff for the vinyl cutter)
- Other software?
- Maybe first get all of these installers onto a USB stick, so they can be done all at once.
Computers/Digital Fabrication
DesignJet printer really needs a dust cover, since it gets completely clogged up with dust and debris when not in use.(would still be nice, but less critical now?)- Complete RepRap Snappy
- Make some kind of filament storage solution? (clear plastic tote w/holes, and a bunch of silica gel??)
Electronics
- Organize components better?
- Organize electronics tools better - electronics bench is a good start at this…
Figure out power supply pinout for prototyping station. Fabricobble a replacement or otherwise find one.
AV Stuff
- Go through pile of donated audio cables w/cable tester and see what's working and what isn't
- Make repairs to cables that don't work, or make list of needed connectors if parts aren't available.
- 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.
- Repair the rolling cart - I kind of tried epoxy but it didn't seem to work. Weld?
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…
- Build a wheeled cart for the Casting Furnace?
- We'd need cast iron/steel casters. We should have sufficient steel tubing?
- Priority: low, needs good weather (due to welding) or done offsite.
