Calendar
- May 30 2009, 12:00pm - 5:00pm: Arrangement of Storage Shelves according to proposed plan at shop
Planned Organization of Areas
These layouts were agreed on at the May 2009 meeting and will not be altered until the Nov 2009 meeting.
Lobby with front door
- This will be used like a kitchen.
- Convert corner closet to a shower
- The panty will continue being used for servers
- There is no problem with an oven/stove being in the kitchen, but the shop will not buy one.
- Knock out one, if not both, of the windows and replace them with glass/lexan and blinds.
Large common area
- Predominant work and learning area. It will remain mostly clear except for 4 large work tables and large active projects in need of space.
- A table dedicated for electronics work.
- The projector will stay on the media cart.
Kitchen Loft
- General chill out space, used for hanging out more so than working on projects.
- Lighting needs work.
- Semi-permanent ventilation needs to be installed (box fans or case fans).
- Pipe insulation needs to be added to prevent ouchie boo boos.
- Wood storage area next to the bottom of the staircase.
Space next to rollup door
- Tools (in general) will reside here. Wood working and welding will occur in the space in front of the garage door (preferably with it open) or outside.
Storage shelves
- Arranged with non-electronic supplies to the left and electronics in the middle "devolving" into electronic components to the far right.
Storage Loft
- Railing needs to be installed.
- Full stairs are not feasible, so we will use an angled ladder approach and a dumb waiter to move bulkier objects.
Unlit room
- Storage for items such as the engraver, plotter, computer cart, etc for use either in that room or to be brought out into the main area and returned when not in use.
- Setup 3 to 4 small personal areas for no more than a weeks use (3 month trial basis)
- Basically just a 4' table and power with a short 4' or 5' wall dividing up each section along one wall.
Issues with the Landlord
Point of contact is Korc
- Sewage
- Fairly high priority, makes fancy things like the toilet not work very well.
- Roll up door
- The door needs repair on the top and bottom two sections.
- It should be openable by a single person for safety reasons.
Insurance Info
The meeting with the insurance agent 23 April 2009 didn’t go as well as planned. He doesn’t seem to share the same enthusiasm for the new shop as all of us do.
The insurance inspector came by on 5/15 and didn't seem to hate us, we're waiting to hear back.
The good news is the items that we have to fix aren’t that hard or time consuming. Also they should be relatively cheap to do.
As always if you have time or items that you can donate to bringing the shop to insurable condition they will be greatly appreciated.
TODO
Here is a list of the thing that needs to be accomplished:
- front door

- Parts are available to build a 3rd table
- We need materials for 1 more (at least)
- Outside
- Any remainder of debris needs to be removed from the outside of the building.
- The outside of the building could use a good pressure washing.
- The front left corner between the front door and the roll-up is damaged. All the major holes like that where insulation is exposed needs to be repaired.
- The inside walls need to be scrubbed and/or bleached and painted.
