Basic Member Storage in Suite #113

The shelves to the right of bike storage in #113 are considered basic member BIN storage. If your stuff can’t fit in a bin don’t put it there.

  • Use ACE provided bin
  • One bin per member
  • All good must fit in your bin with the lid closed
  • Do not take bins home
  • All bins must be tagged
  • NO GLUE UPS ON THE SHELVES with clamps or wet glue

Project Storage

There is set of open shelves in #113 marked Project storage. They are specifically for short-term project storage. They are not for general materials storage or Ace organization project storage.

  • All items on these shelves need to belong to a member and be properly tagged.
  • Projects should not overhang the shelves by more than 2 inches in any direction.
  • Members should use ladders to safely access the top shelves.
  • Be considerate about how much storage you use for longer periods of time. For example: Using 30% of the storage for 2-3 weeks while you build something is okay. Using 30% of the storage for several months or more, not okay.
  • Put. your project on the best shelf to save space. ie: Little project should go on the bottom shelf.
    • Staff may move member projects to create more space in this area. Notice will go out whenever that happens.
  • Use the provided shrink wrap to keep your projects neat and tidy
  • NO GLUE UPS ON THE SHELVES with clamps or wet glue

Using the Flex Area

There is a flexible area in Storage (suite #113). Members can put up a folding table and use them for finishing and to leave glue-ups overnight. If the area is already in use you will have to wait your turn!

Please observe the following etiquette for the flex space:

  • Call Dibs on the space when you need it.
  • Ask before moving Org or Member projects.
  • Pay attention to other dibs and classes that may need that area.
  • This area is not for builds. Just finishing and letting glue-ups dry please.
  • Do not use any sanding or wood sawing tools in this room. it will ruin metal shop equipment and make a mess of org things. It also is not good for our laser.

 

Glue-up and Finishing Projects

Please observe the following etiquette for glue-ups:

  • Do not block shelves or the bike parking area
  • DO NOT put wet or clamped glue-ups on shelves or on the floor
  • Use a folding table not the floor
  • Plan on no more than 48 hours for your glue-ups, preferably 24 hours (If you need community help cause you can’t come back, ask for it)
  • Always post a photo to general and let folks know when you will be back and when they can pull the ACE Clamps so they can use them
  • Always blue-tag your stuff
