==Access Policy==
(Approved by the MakeICT board [http://makeict.org/wiki/December_4_2016 2016 December 04])

* Those who wish to access the textile room must read and follow the Textile Room Guidelines posted on the Wiki. (The guidelines will likely be updated and evolve over time. Users are expected to review and comply with the current guidelines.)
* Use of the equipment requires authorization by one of the [http://makeict.org/wiki/Textiles#Equipment_List approved authorizers] listed on the wiki.

==Textile Room Guidelines==
Guidelines will be updated periodically at the discretion of the Textile BD.

The Room
* The Textile Room is a CLEAN SPACE. No food, drinks, or any other messy/dirty/liquidy/greasy substances, including yourself, are allowed in the room.
In particular, do not place anything besides the clothes iron, clean laundered fabric, pins and notions on the padded work table. If something has been on the floor or anywhere dirty, it should not be on the work surface.
* Put things back where you got them (or put them in their proper place if someone else happened to leave them out).
* Clean up after yourself. (Lint roll the table, sweep, etc)
* Children under 8 are not permitted in the room.

Ironing:
* The padded table is for ironing and pinning projects together. Do not cut fabric on the padded surface.
* Always use the distilled water provided in the Textile Room to fill the irons and spray bottles.
* When using steam you may want to use a barrier fabric to prevent color transfer from the table fabric to your project.

Cutting:
* Do not cut fabric on the padded table. To cut fabric, lower the Murphy Cutting Board so it lays flat on top of the padded work table and only cut on the cutting board itself.
* Use only scissors, shears or fabric rotary cutters on the cutting mat. Use a light touch when using a rotary cutter. Do not use a box/utility knife on the cutting mat.
* Textile scissors and shears have been labeled as “Fabric Only” and are only to be used to cut the following Acceptable Fabrics. Do not cut material from the Unacceptable Fabrics list below. If the material you would like to cut is not on either list, ask the Area Lead if it is safe.
'''Acceptable Fabrics''': are woven or felted up to ⅛” thick. Some examples are cotton, linen, wool, cashmere, polyester, rayon/viscose, nylon, spandex, silk, leather...

'''Unacceptable Fabrics''': Some examples are burlap, metallic, kevlar, fur, faux fur, or anything above 12 oz per square yard… (Fur and faux fur are cut from the back side with a straight edge knife or ripped on grain.)

Sewing:
* All our current machines are previously loved and have some quirks. We will try our best to keep information on each machine on the wiki. If you learn something about a machine that is not listed, please let us know.
* If a machine is broken, place a sticky note on the machine and email the Area Lead asap so we can work to get it up and running again.
* Machine needles are available on the honor system for $1 each. Machines will typically be found without a needle. If you take or break one, please deposit the appropriate amount in the Needle Fund jar.
* Long pile furs such as rabbit require a furrier machine which we do not possess at this time.
* If using a fusible web such as Heat and Bond please use silicone on the machine needle to prevent build up while sewing.

Jess Bechtelheimer: /* Equipment List */

== General Information ==
MakeICT's Textiles area is in the front part of the Makerspace, and is intended for making textiles. It will have several home sewing machines, small looms, irons, padded work table for ironing and pinning, a fold down murphy cutting board, mannequins, a full-length 3-way mirror, a serger, a commercial sewing machine, and more.

This area is currently accepting donations in the form of fabric, thread, machine needles, sewing/fabric scissors/shears, large lint rollers, distilled water, sewing notions (such as zippers, buttons, etc), adjustable dress forms & mannequins, pins, bobbins, hand sewing needles, yarn, tape measures. etc.

[[User:Jess Bechtelheimer|Jess Bechtelheimer]] is the Benevolent Dictator over studio arts.

==Access Policy==
(Approved by the MakeICT board [http://makeict.org/wiki/December_4_2016 2016 December 04])

* Those who wish to access the textile room must read and follow the Textile Room Guidelines posted on the Wiki. (The guidelines will likely be updated and evolve over time. Users are expected to review and comply with the current guidelines.)
* Use of the equipment requires authorization by one of the [http://makeict.org/wiki/Textiles#Equipment_List approved authorizers] listed on the wiki.

==Textile Room Guidelines==
Guidelines will be updated periodically at the discretion of the Textile BD.

The Room
* The Textile Room is a CLEAN SPACE. No food, drinks, or any other messy/dirty/liquidy/greasy substances, including yourself, are allowed in the room.
In particular, do not place anything besides the clothes iron, clean laundered fabric, pins and notions on the padded work table. If something has been on the floor or anywhere dirty, it should not be on the work surface.
* Put things back where you got them (or put them in their proper place if someone else happened to leave them out).
* Clean up after yourself. (Lint roll the table, sweep, etc)
* Children under 8 are not permitted in the room.

Ironing:
* The padded table is for ironing and pinning projects together. Do not cut fabric on the padded surface.
* Always use the distilled water provided in the Textile Room to fill the irons and spray bottles.
* When using steam you may want to use a barrier fabric to prevent color transfer from the table fabric to your project.

Cutting:
* Do not cut fabric on the padded table. To cut fabric, lower the Murphy Cutting Board so it lays flat on top of the padded work table and only cut on the cutting board itself.
* Use only scissors, shears or fabric rotary cutters on the cutting mat. Use a light touch when using a rotary cutter. Do not use a box/utility knife on the cutting mat.
* Textile scissors and shears have been labeled as “Fabric Only” and are only to be used to cut the following Acceptable Fabrics. Do not cut material from the Unacceptable Fabrics list below. If the material you would like to cut is not on either list, ask the Area Lead if it is safe.
'''Acceptable Fabrics''': are woven or felted up to ⅛” thick. Some examples are cotton, linen, wool, cashmere, polyester, rayon/viscose, nylon, spandex, silk, leather...

'''Unacceptable Fabrics''': Some examples are burlap, metallic, kevlar, fur, faux fur, or anything above 12 oz per square yard… (Fur and faux fur are cut from the back side with a straight edge knife or ripped on grain.)

Sewing:
* All our current machines are previously loved and have some quirks. We will try our best to keep information on each machine on the wiki. If you learn something about a machine that is not listed, please let us know.
* If a machine is broken, place a sticky note on the machine and email the Area Lead asap so we can work to get it up and running again.
* Machine needles are available on the honor system for $1 each. Machines will typically be found without a needle. If you take or break one, please deposit the appropriate amount in the Needle Fund jar.
* Long pile furs such as rabbit require a furrier machine which we do not possess at this time.
* If using a fusible web such as Heat and Bond please use silicone on the machine needle to prevent build up while sewing.

Jess Bechtelheimer: /* To do */

== Vehicle Aesthetics ==
[[File:car-sketch.svg]]
=== To do ===
* Clean car
* Round up performers for the skit
* Acquire help to get the lights, radio/walkie-talkie, etc working.
* Figure out how the smoke and sound is going to work for the skit.
* Decorate car and helmet
* Define budget
* Shop

=== Ideas ===
* Sound/music
* Parachute (Chassis/brake/steering group?)
* Pyrotechnics
* Working lights or reflectors
* Something pops out of the hood
* Stickers/decals
* 3D printed keeper (hood ornament?)
* Working buttons, levers, and doodads
** Example: CB Radio talks to the pit crew
* Cushion for the seat and seat back
* Plug or cap-off gas tank for extra name space
* Native American theme
** Sticks, feathers, and other pieces of nature
** Leather and beads
** Tomahawk
** Animal horns and/or bones on the hood
** Driver w/ a head dress or mohawk, maybe dressed in native garb
* Animal print

== Skit ==
* "Power" dance or "Race" dance (instead of a rain dance)
* People dance around the car, then the hood pops and some sort of spirit comes out (with smoke)
* Maybe the spirit should talk?
* Then the car revs and the lights flash
