+====== To-Do (How can I help?) ======
-===== Mini Projects =====
+See also [[https://roundup.ehlab.uk/|Roundup]] and the [[members_nights|Members' Nights]] list.
-==== Drill organisation ====
+===== Small Tasks =====
-All of our drills (bits) currently sit in a single box. We should have a storage system for making it easier to find the right type and size, and to see what we have or what is missing.
+These should be immediately actionable, describable in a single bullet point and take up to 30 minutes for one person to complete:
-  * Make or buy an organiser:
+  * Tidy and clear-out the kitchen cupboard. Should only contain cleaning supplies.
-    * Multiple holes for each size of drill (because one drill of each size is not enough for a hackerspace)
+  * G1 hifi shelves: replace the short brackets with long brackets (we have a surplus and the shelf would be more secure).
-    * Sections for HSS, brad-point and masonry
+  * Laser Cutter #1: Connect the air-flow sensor into the safety loop (in series with the lid switch, water flow sensor, etc).
-  * Audit the drills. Dispose of bad ones. Sharpen where possible. Identify what we need to purchase for replacements/spares.
+  * Wire-up LEDs for one remaining tool locker.
-  * Identify a suitable drill sharpening system to keep the drills in good condition.
+  * Secure tool locker LED wiring with hot glue (at the point where the wires meet the LED strip).
+  * Install a locker controller and LED in the battery-charging compartment.
+  * Move G6 (Al's room) access point to G11.
-==== Install ventilation in G8 Workshop ====
-We have permission from Summerhall to install a fan in the external wall. There are two sections where previous vents have been bricked-up, and one of these should be opened and a fan installed.
+===== Bigger Tasks =====
-  * Plan how to remove the bricks safely and without damaging the rest of the wall.
+These should be immediately actionable, describable in a single bullet point and take 1-3 hours for 1-2 people to complete:
-  * Source a suitable fan.
-  * Do the work...
-  * Clean/repaint as required.
-==== Relocate extraction vent in G11 Store Room ====
+  * Pull additional Cat5 cables from between G11 and G14.
+  * Specify and purchase shelving for G14 (full-lengths, 300mm depth).
+  * Install spur for G1 water heater.
+  * Tidy-up the radio corner.
+===== Infrastructure Projects =====
-The extract vent is currently located in the left corner as you enter the room. It should be relocate to the tile above the rear of the server rack, to better capture the hot air. We have an extra length of flexible hose that should enable this.
+More tasks may be found on the [[start#projects|infrastructure project pages]].
-==== Finish moving the workshop from G2 to G8 ====
+===== Mini Projects =====
-  * Mount the wall-mounted bins in G8
+Projects might require planning or additional purchases before they can be tackled. Some projects will need their own pages and a link from here.
-  * Move the tools and supplies from G2 to G8
-  * Organise the shelves in G8, label them so tools can be returned to the same place each time.
-  * Move the chemicals from G1 to G8 (under the sink). Dispose of empty containers.
-  * Fit a smoke alarm in G8 (early warning system to avoid causing an evac of Summerhall).
-===== Other Stuff =====
+==== Repair Tektronix oscilloscope ====
-  * Design a test pattern for checking/calibrating the laser cutter
+Scope has a power supply fault, and probably needs a capacitor replacement.
-  * Update OpenStreepMap to identify all the local takeaways
-  * Sort the PC parts and peripherals
-  * Build a webapp to view [[http://spaceapi.net|Space API]] data
-===== Completed Projects =====
+==== Repair Rigol DS1102D oscilloscope ====
-==== Fit shelving under G8 workbenches ====
+One channel has failed, believed to be in the front-end. Device is out of warranty and Rigol cannot offer replacement parts that would be economically worth-while.
-We want to install shelving under the section of workbench to the right of the drill press. Just one shelf, to divide the space into two.
+This schematic might help: http://rigol.codenaschen.de/index.php/Schematics
+===== Other Stuff =====
+  * Design a test pattern for checking/calibrating the laser cutter
+  * Build a webapp to view [[http://spaceapi.net|Space API]] data
