Candidates for Removal

Clockwise from the front door:

  • Server Rack - Shane's view is this is utterly unnecessary. Get cloud servers for projects. Physical hardware is hot, powersucker, dirty, takes footprint
    • Inside is a projector, toolboxes, laptops, shit on top including multiple computers. We already have 4 space computers... we don't need more.
    • Proposed Action: Remove server rack. Action Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: Follow through on removing computers. Recycling path has been identified. Owners wishing to retrieve donated boxes have been identified (Laz, BstrdSmkr) and boxes labeled. Action Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: Sort and, as appropriate, remove remaining items. Action Owner: [????]
  • Piles of buckets and dirty rags in front of the sink
    • Buckets and rags are both of great value. Present location is terrible, yes. -adan
    • Proposed Action: create rag system: clear plastic bins, on new shelf system ( =near sink); clean, dirty. When clean's empty or dirty's full... clean 'em! Action Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: attempt to stack empty buckets under sink? Action Owner: [????]
  • 3+ broken coffee makers in a plastic tub
    • Proposed Action: Publicly thank donor, declare our coffee needs taken care of for now (yes?), request removal. If removal does not occur in timeframe desired, dispose. Action Owner: [????]
  • Lockers are wasteful of space and inefficient in use.
    • Proposed Action: Thank K. for the donation, declare it tested and suboptimal. Request removal. Action Owner: [????]
  • Plates / napkins / water / food storage is a mess and needs to be cleared out
    • Proposed Action: Tidy up / clear out. Action Owner: [????]
  • Computer desk with 2 space computers and 3 monitors need to go away (unused)
    • Proposed Action: Convert to 3D printing center (was that not a semi-solid plan?) Action Owner: [????]
  • Desks along the wall covered with build items for 3D printing construction.
    • Proposed Action: fold the tables, store compactly. They'll be useful, just not now. Request removal / tidying of inactive printer builds. Action Owner: [????]
  • 2 more space computers and monitors generally unused
    • Proposed Action: Request removal. Action Owner: [????]
  • Workbench with piles of shit under it including 2+ ancient monitors, broken 3D printer never used, tubs of personal storage
    • Proposed Action: Monitors, which have already been publicly discussed, are approved for removal. Remove using same resource as that identified for PC boxes? Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: Request removal of other items. Action Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: Promptly replace with a structured storage plan, else that space will promptly be refilled. Action Owner: [????]
  • Shitty table with holes in it
    • Proposed Action: Discuss. That's a functional downdraft table, great for sanding without space-dusting. It's also a functional snack table. It's also, failing those functions, a superfancy folding mechanism. Chuck it if you wish, by all means, but know those functional options first. Action Owner: [????]
  • Back table has piles of stuff under it... cardboard boxes empty and full of shit, old heaters, plywood scraps and stuff, boxes of bolts, electronics components
    • Proposed Action: Request removal of other items. Action Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: Promptly replace with a structured storage plan, else that space will promptly be refilled. Action Owner: [????]
  • Back wall... OMG where to start? Cant get to tools because of shit in front of them. Have these tools ever been used? (bandsaw, planer, miter saw etc). *Multiple cabinets of SHIT. THrow it out. Stacks of materials / scrap wood / flat panels
    • There's a planer?
    • Proposed Action: Improve access to these tools, which have all been used, yes. Action Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: Remove reflective panel. I began to do that, was shamed into trying to keep it for another purpose, failed partway through. Ditchit. Action Owner: [????]
  • Table of machine tools not used or working (mini lathe, drill press?)
    • Proposed Action: repair mini lathe. Action Owner: [Andy]
    • Proposed Action: adopt/develop machine tools education program. Action Owner: [Facilities Director]
  • Printer enclosure
    • Proposed Action: Suggest proposed action. Action Owner: [Shane?]
  • ClusterPuck project... timeline?
    • Proposed Action: Ask ClusterPuck team for timeline update. Action Owner: [????]
    • Proposed Action: Ask ClusterPuck team to reduce footprint of existing testbed. Remove legs / adopt downdraft table's folding mechanism / something? Action Owner: [????]
