Ongoing Hack-the-space Projects
{{Volunteering}}
 
Boarding over the floor in the metalworking area. ONGOING
The object being to make the floor impervious to welding and grinding sparks so that these can be carried out without risk to the antique flooring (and whatever might be underneath) of Roden House.
 
Creating a 'Dusty Area'. ONGOING
So that the after-effects of sawing, routing, turning and (especially) sanding wood don't affect other areas of the workshop. We are building a partitioned off area including a transparent curtain wall for convenience where these operations can be carried out. A follow-on project to build centralised dust extraction will follow. Large dust extractor obtained - awaiting 3phase power and some rebuilding work.
 
Installing 3phase power. Now mostly complete (sujmmer 2014)
To run the Bridgeport Mill, Donkey Saw, CNC Drill and other 'professional' workshop tools, including TIG welder.
 
Hackspace Info Kiosk. IN PLANNING
A permanently running (super-eco powered) PC and wall-mounted screen, scrolling through a list of current projects, events and tasks to fullfil. With permanently logged-in access to the wiki and website, to enable messaging to the consumables group, entering prospective member details to HMS, etc.
 
Comfy area library. ONGOING
Two Ikea 'Billy' bookcases are already in place, dividing the Comfy Area from the Studio. Two more have arrived, and are awaiting assembly to complete a wall of books in the Comfy Area and the Hackspace Library. Carpet tiles now in stock for laying in this area (hardboard sub-flooring required?)
 
Kitchen revamp. IN PLANNING
Full-length worktops, space for cupboards under, Hot Water, New Sink. Everything the Hackspace needs in a revamped Kitchen
