<p>Paul Shackelford: </p> <hr /> <div>{{needs-update|details=missing details and access policies}}<br /> <br /> ==General Information==<br /> MakeICT's Electronics and Rapid Prototyping lab is an enclosed 708 sq ft area. This area has several dedicated spaces. One is for creation of electronics, including a board milling machine, area dedicated for assembly, and reflow oven. Another is for the troubleshooting of electronics, including a hot air rework station, Spectrum Analyzer, Oscilloscope, current limited power supply, and logic analyzer. We offer Dremmel sets to handle less delicate work (or more delicate depending on your skill.) We also have systems one can check out for the learning of electronics, toolsets to fix and repair, as well as Chip programmers, a bus pirate, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, even a pic based USB module. We offer a full components library, resplendent with analogue devices, TTL type logic, some rare chipsets, and a full complement of passives. This lab is dedicated to creating and debugging electronics, as well as some rapid prototyping capabilities. Never a room to be bored in, the common complaint in this room is, &quot;what do I make first?&quot; <br /> <br /> This is the place to start learning about electronics. Need some [[ERP TUTORIALS|2-tor-ialz]]?<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==Equipment Access Policy==<br /> <br /> '''THIS POLICY IS NOT YET APPROVED OR OFFICIAL and is under construction'''<br /> <br /> ===All Equipment===<br /> <br /> *Equipment requiring authorization may be operated by an unauthorized user only under the '''direct''' supervision of an authorized user.<br /> <br /> ===Scopes===<br /> MakeICT has a few Oscilloscopes. Most notably is the [[Tektronix 465B]] We are fortunate to have some nice ones. Using the Oscilloscope takes some finesse and it's best you have some help with it if you're fairly new to one, so we require certification. The Oscilloscope shows Voltage over time, similar to a graph. There are lots of settings, dials, and switches. if you want to learn to use it just ask to be taught from a reasonably knowledgeable member. <br /> <br /> *List of known Scope users is listed below<br /> **[[User:Paul Shackelford|Paul Shackelford]]<br /> **[[USer:James A Seymour|James Seymour]]<br /> <br /> ===Spectrum Analyzer===<br /> We have a very nice Spectrum Analyzer ([[Tektronix 492 AP]]). The Spectrum Analyzer shows receive power over frequency. So if you set it properly you would see Peaks where each Wifi network is transmitting. It is easy (and expensive) to damage the input of a Spectrum Analyzer. We ask you are certified and use proper caution. We have several attenuators available for impedance matching, so use them. <br /> <br /> *List of known analyzer users is listed below<br /> **[[User:James A Seymour|James Seymour]]<br /> <br /> &lt;br /&gt;<br /> ===ERP SAFETY===<br /> We prefer a solid understanding of the equipment you are using before use. Certain pieces of equipment are expensive and not easily repaired. Some pieces of equipment can seriously injure or kill you. It never hurts to run what your doing by someone. There are some dangerous pieces of equipment that can burn mutilate or electrocute. These require peer authorization, for the user's safety. SAFE OPERATION of equipment is top priority.<br /> <br /> To protect members, any project that exceeds 50V must be clearly labeled &quot;DANGER HIGH VOLTAGE&quot; and will not be left powered up unattended unless wiring is inaccessible to accidental contact. <br /> <br /> Finally, is HIGHLY recommended that we use a buddy system, where no single person is working in the shop without a second person in the building so that if there is an injury, somebody else is there to call for help or assist you. <br /> <br /> ==Borrowing Items==<br /> Currently we do not lend out equipment, but as we build up an inventory of certain items, we may allow checkout similar to a library. Special arrangements may be made on a individual basis, but that is entirely up to the Area Lead.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Component Library==<br /> MakeICT maintains an electronics library. There is currently an inventory of [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/171x30JJus9XvKBXHagEEe7ZRbp-jYVOvMYQRtwHyMl8/edit?usp=sharing available active components]. This inventory is maintained by volunteers, we ask that you record components you are removing or adding on the clipboard, so that they can be included/subtracted from the inventory. Inventory management is to help the membership, and must rely on the membership. Components in the library are for member use, We only ask you put a buck or two in the donation bucket if you use a lot of them, or some of the rare/complex parts.<br /> <br /> Many of our devices come from dubious sources, MakeICT makes no claim as to their datasheet capabilities, and a certain amount of derateing may be required.<br /> <br /> ==Classes==<br /> <br /> *[[Basic Electronics Workshop]]<br /> *[[Circuit Design and Fabrication]]<br /> *[[Rapid Prorotyping with CNC]]<br /> *[[Basic Soldering Class]]<br /> <br /> ==Electronics and Rapid Prototyping Safety==<br /> <br /> #'''Do not use any machine you are not trained on and comfortable using.''' If at any time you are unsure of what you are doing, stop immediately and ask for help.<br /> #'''Do not use any machine that is not in good working order.''' Stop, unplug and leave a note on the machine and notify the Area Lead.<br /> #'''NEVER ASSUME A TOOL IS PROPERLY ADJUSTED.''' Always check the tool prior to use.<br /> #'''NEVER MODIFY OR HACK MACHINERY WITHOUT CONSENT FROM THE AREA LEAD.'''<br /> #'''Always triple check your inputs when connecting to equipment. Dangerous levels are dangerous.'''<br /> <br /> &lt;br /&gt;<br /> ==Overnight Project Storage Policy - The Tribble Clause==<br /> Random, unclaimed projects are like printers and tribbles: [[How to lead the ERP lab|they're bad news]]. Never fear, we have good news: there are clearly marked shelves in the middle of the lab for ''2 week personal project storage.'' For any and all projects left in the ERP overnight, please use the masking tape provided, or whatever you want, to ''clearly'' mark on your project including:<br /> <br /> <br /> - Your '''name'''<br /> <br /> - Your preferred form of '''contact information (phone number/email/forum username)'''<br /> <br /> - The '''date that you left the project'''. <br /> <br /> <br /> Please be cool and make sure that your project is not left longer than 2 weeks.  At 2 weeks, the tribble hating softball fairy will ''poof'' show up and pitch the project (be it printer, tribble, or super cool electromagnet laser project) into the unknown. So far, I have kept the Q Continuum far away from this lab, but there’s only so much little ol’ me can do.<br /> <br /> <br /> Note: If the project does not fit in the provided shelves, it is too large to store in the lab without explicit prior permission from an ERP Area/Assistant [[Contact Information|Lead]].<br /> <br /> &lt;br /&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Donation Policy - The Borg Clause ==<br /> If you're just itching to donate a super cool set of sonic screw drivers, that's cool. Just ask us first. Maybe we already have a set and would encourage you to find a less fortunate home for them. Or maybe we would accept them with a huge grin and cheer of thanks.

<p>Paul Shackelford: /* Scopes */</p> <hr /> <div>{{needs-update|details=missing details and access policies}}<br /> <br /> ==General Information==<br /> MakeICT's Electronics and Rapid Prototyping lab is an enclosed 708 sq ft area. This area has several dedicated spaces. One is for creation of electronics, including a board milling machine, area dedicated for assembly, and reflow oven. Another is for the troubleshooting of electronics, including a hot air rework station, Spectrum Analyzer, Oscilloscope, current limited power supply, and logic analyzer. We offer Dremmel sets to handle less delicate work (or more delicate depending on your skill.) We also have systems one can check out for the learning of electronics, toolsets to fix and repair, as well as Chip programmers, a bus pirate, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, even a pic based USB module. We offer a full components library, resplendent with analogue devices, TTL type logic, some rare chipsets, and a full complement of passives. This lab is dedicated to creating and debugging electronics, as well as some rapid prototyping capabilities. Never a room to be bored in, the common complaint in this room is, &quot;what do I make first?&quot; <br /> <br /> This is the place to start learning about electronics. Need some [[ERP TUTORIALS|2-tor-ialz]]?<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ==Equipment Access Policy==<br /> <br /> '''THIS POLICY IS NOT YET APPROVED OR OFFICIAL and is under construction'''<br /> <br /> ===All Equipment===<br /> <br /> *Equipment requiring authorization may be operated by an unauthorized user only under the '''direct''' supervision of an authorized user.<br /> <br /> ===Scopes===<br /> MakeICT has a few Oscilloscopes. Most notably is the [[Tektronix 465B]] We are fortunate to have some nice ones. Using the Oscilloscope takes some finesse and it's best you have some help with it if you're fairly new to one, so we require certification. The Oscilloscope shows Voltage over time, similar to a graph. There are lots of settings, dials, and switches. if you want to learn to use it just ask to be taught from a reasonably knowledgeable member. <br /> <br /> *List of known Scope users is listed below<br /> **[[User:Paul Shackelford|Paul Shackelford]]<br /> **[[USer:James A Seymour|James Seymour]]<br /> <br /> ===Spectrum Analyzer===<br /> We have a very nice Spectrum Analyzer ([[Tektronix 492 AP]]). The Spectrum Analyzer shows receive power over frequency. So if you set it properly you would see Peaks where each Wifi network is transmitting. It is easy (and expensive) to damage the input of a Spectrum Analyzer. We ask you are certified and use proper caution. We have several attenuators available for impedance matching, so use them. <br /> <br /> *List of known analyzer users is listed below<br /> **[[User:James A Seymour|James Seymour]]<br /> <br /> &lt;br /&gt;<br /> ===ERP SAFETY===<br /> We prefer a solid understanding of the equipment you are using before use.

There are some dangerous pieces of equipment that can burn mutilate or electrocute. These require peer authorization, for the user's safety. SAFE OPERATION of equipment is top priority.<br /> <br /> To protect members, any project that exceeds 50V must be clearly labeled &quot;DANGER HIGH VOLTAGE&quot; and will not be left powered up unattended unless wiring is inaccessible to accidental contact. <br /> <br /> Finally, is HIGHLY recommended that we use a buddy system, where no single person is working in the shop without a second person in the building so that if there is an injury, somebody else is there to call for help or assist you. <br /> <br /> ==Borrowing Items==<br /> Currently we do not lend out equipment, but as we build up an inventory of certain items, we may allow checkout similar to a library. Special arrangements may be made on a individual basis, but that is entirely up to the Area Lead.<br /> <br /> ==Items for Purchase==<br /> We do not currently have items for purchase.<br /> <br /> ==Component Library==<br /> MakeICT maintains an electronics library. There is currently an inventory of [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/171x30JJus9XvKBXHagEEe7ZRbp-jYVOvMYQRtwHyMl8/edit?usp=sharing available active components]. This inventory is maintained by volunteers, we ask that you record components you are removing or adding on the clipboard, so that they can be included/subtracted from the inventory. Inventory management is to help the membership, and must rely on the membership. Components in the library are for member use, We only ask you put a buck or two in the donation bucket if you use a lot of them, or some of the rare/complex parts.<br /> <br /> Many of our devices come from dubious sources, MakeICT makes no claim as to their datasheet capabilities, and a certain amount of derateing may be required.<br /> <br /> ==Classes==<br /> <br /> *[[Basic Electronics Workshop]]<br /> *[[Circuit Design and Fabrication]]<br /> *[[Rapid Prorotyping with CNC]]<br /> *[[Basic Soldering Class]]<br /> <br /> ==Electronics and Rapid Prototyping Safety==<br /> <br /> #'''Do not use any machine you are not trained on and comfortable using.'''

For any and all projects left in the ERP overnight, please use the masking tape provided, or whatever you want, to ''clearly'' mark on your project including:<br /> <br /> <br /> - Your '''name'''<br /> <br /> - Your preferred form of '''contact information (phone number/email/forum username)'''<br /> <br /> - The '''date that you left the project'''. <br /> <br /> <br /> Please be cool and make sure that your project is not left longer than 2 weeks.  At 2 weeks, the tribble hating softball fairy will ''poof'' show up and pitch the project (be it printer, tribble, or super cool electromagnet laser project) into the unknown. So far, I have kept the Q Continuum far away from this lab, but there’s only so much little ol’ me can do.<br /> <br /> <br /> Note: If the project does not fit in the provided shelves, it is too large to store in the lab without explicit prior permission from an ERP Area/Assistant [[Contact Information|Lead]].<br /> <br /> &lt;br /&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Donation Policy - The Borg Clause ==<br /> If you're just itching to donate a super cool set of sonic screw drivers, that's cool.

Paul Shackelford is willing to chair the election committee. LaDeana Dockery and Dean Day have volunteered to join the committee. We would also welcome any additional members - we do generally operate under the idea that being on the Election Committee excludes running for a position.<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Cooper moves to create the election committee and appoint Paul S. as the chair and LaDeana and Dean as the assistants <br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Andy<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Paul votes: Abstain<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Paul is election committee chair, LaDeana and Dean are assistants.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Maker Market/Annual Meeting Venue===<br /> There has been discussion of hosting our Annual Meeting at WAVE and doing a Maker Market alongside it. This would have a cost and contract associated with it.<br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> <br /> *Date for the market is tentatively planned for Saturday 6/13. We’d have to put a $1k deposit down and get a contract drafted and signed. Total cost $2.5k ($500 of which is for 2 security guards)<br /> *Proposed cost for vendors would be $50 for members and $75 for non-members. Rustin has drawn up a vendor agreement that needs to be reviewed and finalized.<br /> *Cooper raises the concern that we’d need to have enough vendors/people attending to cover the expense.<br /> *Rustin mentioned reaching out to Groover to gauge interest in them having a booth and they weren’t interested, but will be there otherwise.<br /> *James raised concern about overall cost as well, but also mentions that on its own shouldn’t be the sole deterrent.<br /> *Stephan raised that if we’re moving forward we have to move fast to get the word out and put materials together<br /> *Gretchen raised that one of the biggest headaches in the past has been contract negotiations with the vendors. And we’ll need to be prepared to meet the obligations stated in the contract.<br /> *Dean mentioned that vendors will have to provide their own tables/chairs.<br /> *Vendor Agreement: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VEVnSpmomZRJp88DJnAsAowVWu5ueUVs/edit?usp=sharing&amp;ouid=109402023692581537088&amp;rtpof=true&amp;sd=true<br /> *Vendor Layout: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1c09M79dljBhaJCWfKwR07arYqfRQW_ZT3fNZIA11MGw/edit?usp=sharing <br /> <br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Dean moves to proceed based on what we know now and agree to the downpayment and the total overall cost not to exceed $3k without additional vote.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Stephan<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Aaron votes: Abstain<br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Moving forward with Maker Market; costs not to exceed $3k without additional vote.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Electrical Bids===<br /> We had a couple bids for electrical work that were discussed at the February board meeting - we decided to go get a couple more bids. JaiPal has received additional bids from Decker Electric and Eck Services.<br /> <br /> Bid folder: [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1GRG7AAF3hUL6eOqwzxvTIvl0FvJ2Wue7?usp=sharing Metal Shop Elec.

This should be either a motion to make him lead or roll the area into the Welcome Area.<br /> <br /> Discussion: Piper will reach out to Richard.<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Lounge Budget===<br /> Liam has asked for a budget to address some issues in the lounge. The lounge currently does not have a budget.<br /> <br /> Discussion: Liam submitted a budget for $54, Andy suggested approving $100 to give some buffer.<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Cooper moves to give the lounge $100 in their budget.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Andy<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Aaron votes: Yay<br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Lounge given a $100 budget.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Garden Budget Requests===<br /> Piper presented an updated budget at the workshop and is asking for $1,053 more. In the original 2026 budget, Garden was allotted $500 for the year. <br /> <br /> Budget: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NIFvdkten8N_xCeuiJPBK5QK6_xNzW-F3z7M22Ksq-Y/edit?usp=sharing <br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Aaron moves to approve the budget increase by an additional $1,053 for 2026<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Paul<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Aaron votes: Yay<br /> *Paul votes: Yay <br /> *Piper votes: Abstain<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay <br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes<br /> <br /> {{decision | Garden to receive an extra $1,053 in their budget for the year.}}<br /> <br /> ===No Smoking===<br /> There's been concern about smoking at MakeICT. We do not actually have a policy regarding this outside of the Garden Committee having a rule for no smoking in their space due to concerns over poisoning their plants.<br /> <br /> Here is a draft policy: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10spRFDH_Y7I1N4_Jm8XODjJw5_JIACBmnFyn9vJsEvw/edit?usp=sharing<br /> <br /> To go along with this, approval of a policy would also include approval of up to $500 for Facilities to hang signs as they see fit around the area to advertise that MakeICT is a smoke-free zone except for the designated areas.<br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> <br /> *Conversation around cost. Proposal seems high and the conversation landed on $100 should cover it.<br /> *Gretchen proposes to change the language in the policy to exclude the last line as it appears redundant since “illegal activity” is already covered in our core principle.<br /> *Discussion around details about how far from the door the designated area should be and how it should be stated in the policy (10ft and 20ft)<br /> *Policy was changed during the discussion from 2 to 1 designated smoking area<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Andy moves that we adopt the smoking and vaping policy and approve $100 to procure signs.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Piper<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Aaron votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Smoking and Vaping Policy passes and $100 allocated to procure signage.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Modifying ServiceMaster Contract===<br /> We have a new quote from ServiceMaster - $875/mo - drop carpets to quarterly and floor polishing to annual; other scope stays the same<br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> *Dean wants to terminate the agreement.<br /> *Some opposition if no replacement is in place before terminating it.<br /> *Aaron proposes to instead drop Service Master to common areas (incl. bathrooms) only. No quarterly carpet cleaning &amp; no annual waxing. For the next board workshop we can talk about desired scope and put out requests for bids. <br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Dean moves to terminate the agreement in its entirety and table a discussion for replacement until the next board workshop.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Gretchen<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Nay<br /> *Aaron votes: Abstain<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Contract with ServiceMaster terminated.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Revoking Keycard Access===<br /> Revoke key access for members following policy violations. Reactivation of key access depends on response from said member to the board.<br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> *Details discussed in executive session<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Stephan moves to proceed as discussed in executive session (see summary)<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Cooper<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Aaron votes: Yay<br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Abstain<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Security will communicate with member about revocation of key access.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Maker Market Vendor Contract===<br /> We reviewed and updated the Vendor agreement:<br /> https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1c09M79dljBhaJCWfKwR07arYqfRQW_ZT3fNZIA11MGw/edit?usp=sharing<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Stephan moves to approve the vendor contract after having made the edits to the agreement.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Andy<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Vendor contract approved for Maker Market.}}<br /> <br /> ==Decision Summary==<br /> {{decision-summary}}<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Board Meetings]]<br /> [[Category:Board]]<br /> [[Category:Meetings]]<br /> [[Category:Meetings in 2026]]</div>

This would have a cost and contract associated with it.<br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> <br /> *Date for the market is tentatively planned for Saturday 6/13. We’d have to put a $1k deposit down and get a contract drafted and signed. Total cost $2.5k ($500 of which is for 2 security guards)<br /> *Proposed cost for vendors would be $50 for members and $75 for non-members. Rustin has drawn up a vendor agreement that needs to be reviewed and finalized.<br /> *Cooper raises the concern that we’d need to have enough vendors/people attending to cover the expense.<br /> *Rustin mentioned reaching out to Groover to gauge interest in them having a booth and they weren’t interested, but will be there otherwise.<br /> *James raised concern about overall cost as well, but also mentions that on its own shouldn’t be the sole deterrent.<br /> *Stephan raised that if we’re moving forward we have to move fast to get the word out and put materials together<br /> *Gretchen raised that one of the biggest headaches in the past has been contract negotiations with the vendors. And we’ll need to be prepared to meet the obligations stated in the contract.<br /> *Dean mentioned that vendors will have to provide their own tables/chairs.<br /> *Vendor Agreement: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VEVnSpmomZRJp88DJnAsAowVWu5ueUVs/edit?usp=sharing&amp;ouid=109402023692581537088&amp;rtpof=true&amp;sd=true<br /> *Vendor Layout: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1c09M79dljBhaJCWfKwR07arYqfRQW_ZT3fNZIA11MGw/edit?usp=sharing <br /> <br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Dean moves to proceed based on what we know now and agree to the downpayment and the total overall cost not to exceed $3k without additional vote.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Stephan<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Aaron votes: Abstain<br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Moving forward with Maker Market; costs not to exceed $3k without additional vote.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Electrical Bids===<br /> We had a couple bids for electrical work that were discussed at the February board meeting - we decided to go get a couple more bids.

We do not actually have a policy regarding this outside of the Garden Committee having a rule for no smoking in their space due to concerns over poisoning their plants.<br /> <br /> Here is a draft policy: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10spRFDH_Y7I1N4_Jm8XODjJw5_JIACBmnFyn9vJsEvw/edit?usp=sharing<br /> <br /> To go along with this, approval of a policy would also include approval of up to $500 for Facilities to hang signs as they see fit around the area to advertise that MakeICT is a smoke-free zone except for the designated areas.<br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> <br /> *Conversation around cost. Proposal seems high and the conversation landed on $100 should cover it.<br /> *Gretchen proposes to change the language in the policy to exclude the last line as it appears redundant since “illegal activity” is already covered in our core principle.<br /> *Discussion around details about how far from the door the designated area should be and how it should be stated in the policy (10ft and 20ft)<br /> *Policy was changed during the discussion from 2 to 1 designated smoking area<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Andy moves that we adopt the smoking and vaping policy and approve $100 to procure signs.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Piper<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Aaron votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Smoking and Vaping Policy passes and $100 allocated to procure signage.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Modifying ServiceMaster Contract===<br /> We have a new quote from ServiceMaster - $875/mo - drop carpets to quarterly and floor polishing to annual; other scope stays the same<br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> *Dean wants to terminate the agreement.<br /> *Some opposition if no replacement is in place before terminating it.<br /> *Aaron proposes to instead drop Service Master to common areas (incl. bathrooms) only. No quarterly carpet cleaning &amp; no annual waxing.

Does Liam want to lead the breakroom? TBD on the breakroom, we'll let him lead just the Lounge if that's what he wants.<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Cooper moves to accept Liam as the new Lounge lead and we'll table discussion of separating out the breakroom.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Dean<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay <br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Tessa votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay <br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Liam Blakely is the new Lounge Lead.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Bridgeport Mill and Pavilion Wiring===<br /> The Bridgeport mill is not located in the same place as the existing mill. We will need to run wiring to it. Bids are for a 20A 3 ph circuit, 2x30A 3-phase circuits, a 30A disconnect, 30A twist-lock installation, 30A receptacle relocation, and a 20A run to the pavilion. <br /> <br /> Discussion: <br /> *We received two bids, one for $6985+tax and one for $6000+tax. <br /> *We think there's conduit going out to the pavilion and it is probably 1.5&quot; conduit. Bids don't seem to realize it is there<br /> *There was concern about price of the quotes and the scope being correct<br /> <br /> *Decided to table action and work with JaiPal to refine scope.<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Alcohol and Drug Policy===<br /> [[Alcohol and Drug Policy]] has a proposed modification to add the following text as a fifth numbered item:<br /> <br /> ''Alcohol may not be stored in refrigerators, lockers, coolers, or any other space at MakeICT (without explicit Board permission)''<br /> <br /> Discussion:<br /> * Modified the wording to remove “drugs, and other intoxicating substances” from the original proposal. <br /> '''Motion:''' <br /> *We still want to survey folks on this - possibly as a larger survey and will wait until we have results.<br /> <br /> <br /> ===IRS 990 Form===<br /> The treasurer has provided 2025 tax year IRS 990 Form for review. <br /> <br /> Discussion:<br /> *We should look look at the Part IV questions (page 17 of the form) and think about adding policies and stuff so we can yes to more - i.e. anti-fraud policy. It may likely help us on grants.<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Paul moves to accept the IRS 990 form as prepared.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Cooper<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Tessa votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | IRS 990 form for 2025 to be filed as prepared.}}<br /> <br /> ===Breakroom Breakup 💔===<br /> The situationship where Breakroom and Lounge were one area has come to an end. We found Liam and confirmed he has no interest in leading the breakroom too. <br /> <br /> Discussion:<br /> *This area won’t have a lead for the time being, that’s okay as long as we have drinks stocked. <br /> *We’ll reach out to the current stockers and see if they want to be lead.<br /> *If they say no, we'll likely fold this into the Welcome Center area at a future meeting.<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Piper moves to separate the breakroom and lounge into separate areas. <br /> <br /> (Alternatively, moves to approve the breakroom breakup)<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Stephan<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Tessa votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Breakroom is it's own independent area.}}<br /> <br /> ==Executive Session==<br /> Board entered a short executive discussion to discuss a scholarship for a potential member.<br /> <br /> ===Scholarship===<br /> Discussion: <br /> *Gretchen states we should really come up with a policy to handle these.<br /> *Paul pointed out the [[Scholarship Guidelines]] he created last year after this came up a few times - it's guidelines not a policy.<br /> <br /> '''Motion:''' Stephan moves to approve the scholarship for three months so the recipient will only pay $10/mo.<br /> <br /> '''Seconded by:''' Cooper<br /> <br /> *Stephan votes: Yay<br /> *Paul votes: Yay<br /> *Tessa votes: Yay<br /> *Piper votes: Yay<br /> *Gretchen votes: Yay<br /> *Cooper votes: Yay<br /> *Dean votes: Yay<br /> <br /> '''Result:''' Motion passes.<br /> <br /> {{decision | Scholarship approved for term of three months.}}<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Decision Summary==<br /> {{decision-summary}}<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Board Meetings]]<br /> [[Category:Board]]<br /> [[Category:Meetings]]<br /> [[Category:Meetings in 2026]]</div>

Navigate to settings on the printer, look for LAN and that's where the current IP address can be retrieved.<br /> <br /> * When feeding in filament, it may not load all the way to nozzle; you will need to be in loading mode and select that printhead for loading. Usually one more past the auto-feed does it, sometimes two... just make sure it's extruded out the filament.<br /> * If you have the loaded colors selected to be identical on two spools, the printer may source from either spool, especially if you didn't feed one all the way to the nozzle (see last point).<br /> <br /> <br /> ===I have Errors!===<br /> * #1 seems to have an issue with the fourth spool &quot;wheel speed anomaly&quot; - as long as it is not binding up, you should be okay to keep trying to load on that spool.<br /> * Occasionally you'll have errors swapping the heads; follow the directions or watch it patiently. Sometimes those sort themselves out in a couple more changes.</div>

<p>Paul Shackelford: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Category:FabLab Equipment]]<br /> ==About==<br /> 3D printing is an additive manufacturing process that allows for the creation of real-world, tangible objects from 3D virtual models. MakeICT maintains the following 3D printers:<br /> <br /> '''Filament Printers'''<br /> <br /> *[[Prusa i3 MK4]]<br /> *[[Prusa i3 MK3|Prusa i3 MK3S+]] (x4)<br /> *[[Ultimaker 2]] - currently not functional<br /> *[[Snapmaker U1]] (x2)<br /> <br /> The current print status for the Prusa printers can be viewed here: http://3dprintmonitor.makeict.org/<br /> <br /> '''Resin Printers'''<br /> <br /> * More detail to come<br /> <br /> ==Machine Access Policy==<br /> Use of any 3D printer at MakeICT requires authorization from an approved peer-authorizer or attendance in a 3D printer workshop that includes authorization. Filament and resin printers must be authorized separately. <br /> <br /> *Any member who has been authorized to use the 3D printers may peer-authorize other members on that type of printer<br /> *Authorization instruction must at least include:<br /> **Fundamental knowledge of each printer's working principles<br /> **Proper use and control of each printer<br /> **Software workflow<br /> **How to change material (filament or resin)<br /> **How to pay for material<br /> <br /> ==Material Fund==<br /> Printing with filament or resin provided by MakeICT costs $0.04 per gram. After printing, please weigh your print using the provided scale and put the appropriate amount of money in the filament fund jar. If you have any requests for new colors/types of filaments or resin, you can post them in the Fab Lab category on [https://talk.makeict.org our forum], or send an email to [mailto:fablab@makeict.org fablab@makeict.org].<br /> <br /> ==Filament Workflow==<br /> ===Prusa 3D Printers and Filament Types===<br /> Review this guide for best practices when using different filament types with MakeICT's Prusa printers: [[MakeICT Prusa 3D Printers and Filament Types]]<br /> ===Slicing===<br /> Slicing is the process of converting an STL file to the G-Code required to run the printer.<br /> <br /> We use PrusaSlicer to generate the G-Code for our printers. The design computer in the Fab Lab has the appropriate profiles installed, as well as all MakeICT laptops. These profiles are also available on the [[Slicer Profiles]] page on this Wiki if you want to install them on your own computer.<br /> <br /> To generate the G-Code for a 3D printer, first select the appropriate printer in the 'Printer' dropdown in the upper right-hand side of Plater window. Then select the preset for the material you wish to use. To load your file click the 'Add' button on the left-hand side of the toolbar at the top of the 3D Editor view. You can also go to 'File' &gt; 'Import' &gt; 'Import STL/OBJ/AMF/3MF' or use the hotkey 'Ctrl + i'. PrusaSlicer should automatically slice the file in the background, and progress will be displayed in the lower right-hand corner of the window.<br /> <br /> Before you send you G-Code, always check the preview by clicking the second icon in the bottom left corner of the screen. Once you've confirmed that everything looks good, hit the 'Send G-code' button near the bottom right 3D Editor view.<br /> <br /> G-Code generated for one machine '''WILL NOT''' work properly on the others, so if you manually save the G-code, be sure that you only use it on the printer that it was originally sliced for. This info can be found in the G-code file if you forget.<br /> <br /> ===Printing===<br /> Each printer can be run using Octoprint. More thorough instructions on this interface can be found on the [[Octoprint]] page. The username and password are 'maker'.<br /> <br /> The printers can be reached at the following addresses while connected to the network at MakeICT:<br /> <br /> *Prusa 1 (Prusa i3 MK3S+) [http://prusa1.makeict.org prusa1.makeict.org]<br /> *Prusa 2 (Prusa i3 MK3S+) [http://prusa2.makeict.org prusa2.makeict.org]<br /> *Prusa 3 (Prusa i3 MK3S+) [http://prusa3.makeict.org prusa3.makeict.org]<br /> *Prusa 4 (Prusa i3 MK3S+) [http://prusa4.makeict.org prusa4.makeict.org]<br /> *Prusa 5 (Prusa i3 MK4) [http://prusa5.makeict.org prusa5.makeict.org]<br /> *Ultimaker 2 [http://ultimaker.makeict.org ultimaker.makeict.org]<br /> <br /> To run a print: select your file and click the print button.<br /> <br /> ===Changing Filament===<br /> The process for changing filament varies slightly between the Prusas and the rest of the printers, but all of them use the filament change menus on the LCD control panel. Wiki Page for the specific printer may have more details on the filament change process if needed.<br /> <br /> ===General Use Tips===<br /> <br /> *'''Always''' watch the first layer of a print to make sure that it sticks to the bed properly.<br /> **If the first layer does not adhere properly the print will fail and make a big mess, potentially damaging the machine.<br /> <br /> *Check material before starting a print. Make sure it is the correct type, and that there is enough to complete the print.<br /> <br /> *When your print is finished, do not immediately turn off the power; wait until the nozzle has cooled. All of our printers have actively-cooled heatsinks on their hotends, and if power is cut before the nozzle is cool the filament can melt higher up than intended and cause a jam.<br /> <br /> *Be careful when removing prints. The glass beds are fairly durable, but can be cracked with excessive force. '''No hammers, mallets, or other bludgeoning devices are to be used for print removal!'''<br /> <br /> *G-Code files generated for one printer should never be used on another. Re-run the slicer with the appropriate profiles for the machine that is being used<br /> <br /> *Abrasive materials (carbon, metal, glow-in-the-dark, etc.) require hardened nozzles to print. '''DO NOT''' print any abrasives with the regular brass nozzles!<br /> *'''NEVER''' use metal scrapers to remove prints from the Prusa printers. You will damage the print surface. Remove the spring steel sheet and bend it to detach printed objects from the surface.<br /> <br /> == Resin Workflow ==<br /> More detail to come.<br /> <br /> ==Resources==<br /> <br /> *Slides for 3D Printing Basics Class<br /> **https://drive.google.com/open?id=1c_LwoGg5Q9U5wuRVSqZHzLYhSFqgXUmNoGOQZj2W2N0<br /> *Example files for 3D Printing Basics Class (both resin and filament)<br /> **https://drive.google.com/open?id=1c1Jz6pHSVRO1V4L3aOdpQ0r1Tu-zE9J2<br /> *Descriptions of the various G-Codes used to run the printers can be found here:<br /> **http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code<br /> *A list of some of the 3D design software we use at MakeICT<br /> **[[3d_Design_Software|3D_Design_Software]]<br /> *Print Status Page:<br /> **http://3dprintmonitor.makeict.org/<br /> *Resin Resources<br /> **https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1oOgU-v-ZWnw7U2r7rq04rDSXgmyzUw8_?usp=sharing</div>
