====== To-Do (How can I help?) ======

See also the [[members_nights|Members' Nights]] list.

===== Small Tasks =====

These should be immediately actionable, describable in a single bullet point and take up to 30 minutes for one person to complete:

  * Sort out rails (shelf next to front of rack in G1) and store somewhere more convenient
  * Design a test pattern for checking/calibrating the laser cutter

===== Bigger Tasks =====

These should be immediately actionable, describable in a single bullet point and take 1-3 hours for 1-2 people to complete:

  * Fix projector control
  * Sort out spare tools (behind rack in G1) and make list on wiki somewhere
  * Build a webapp to view [[http://spaceapi.net|Space API]] data

===== Infrastructure Projects =====

  * Add a shelly smart switch to G11 (possibly G14). Doesn't have to connect to MQTT, just turn off after set amount of time as G11 is where people leave the lights on the most
  * Add a smart switch to extractor fan in G11, move the plug inside the ceiling and add a button to control it

More tasks may be found on the [[start#projects|infrastructure project pages]].

===== Mini Projects =====

Projects might require planning or additional purchases before they can be tackled. Some projects will need their own pages and a link from here.

==== Repair Tektronix oscilloscope ====

Scope has a power supply fault, and probably needs a capacitor replacement.

==== Repair Rigol DS1102D oscilloscope ====

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.

This schematic might help: http://rigol.codenaschen.de/index.php/Schematics

=== Repair / Improve filament recycler  ===

The filament recycler we used to use for [[plasticrecycling|plastic recycling]] is broken, and also not very good apparently. It should either be repaired or replaced.

===== Other Stuff =====

===== Radio / Antenna TODO ====
