==Intro==
We held a Hack the Space weekend from 18:00 on Friday 8th February to 18:00 Sunday 10th February (some jobs starting at 13:00). It was all hands on deck improving our space! This wiki page was intended to detail exactly what needed doing so that we were all working towards the same goals. Now that the weekend is over, this page shows what we were working on and our progress.
We will be holding a Hack the Space weekend from 18:00 on Friday 8th February till 18:00 Sunday 10th February. '''During this time no normal project work will be happening.''' It'll be all hands on deck improving our space!  


Our Hackspace is only as great as our members make it so please join us. Regardless of if you can only spend 30 minutes or the whole weekend at the space; during this time any, and all, help will be greatly appreciated.  
Many thanks to the many people who gave their time to make this a success.  


This wiki page is interactive and is intended to detail exactly what needs doing so that we're all working towards the same goals. If you know of anything that needs fixing or looking at, feel free to add it to the list! In theory, someone could turn up at 3 am and complete some jobs off this list without anyone there to tell them what to do. You will see the page gradually change on the run-up to the weekend as more teams & members populate it.

As many are aware the studio flooring is in desperate need of replacement after many years of surviving. I think for 2019 it is time for new flooring. During this time we will also be resetting LPS (Large Project Storage). Below are some of the jobs if you are interested in helping out

Thank you to all volunteers :)
"Active" projects have been moved to sheet storage over the weekend.
All others have been moved to downstairs for a month.

==PAT Testing==
{{also|Team:Safety/Portable_appliance_testing}}
Portable appliance testing needs to be carried out to bring us in line with safety regulations. This job started on Saturday. It is simple to do and needs no special skills beyond being able to properly use and read the test equipment. Demonstrations were available from James Adams or [[User:Layjet|James Taylor]] of [[Team:Safety|Safety Team]] and [[Trustees|Trustee]] fame.

We held a Hack the Space weekend from 18:00 on Friday 8th February to 18:00 Sunday 10th February (some jobs starting at 13:00). It was all hands on deck improving our space! This wiki page was intended to detail exactly what needed doing so that we were all working towards the same goals. Now that the weekend is over, this page shows what we were working on and our progress.

Many thanks to the many people who gave their time to make this a success.

PAT Testing

Portable appliance testing needs to be carried out to bring us in line with safety regulations. This job started on Saturday. It is simple to do and needs no special skills beyond being able to properly use and read the test equipment. Demonstrations were available from James Adams or James Taylor of Safety Team and Trustee fame.

Broken Toilet Seat

Broken lid

One of the toilet seats was broken.

Leaking Tap

The hot tap in the upstairs toilet is leaking. This could do with being looked at before it gets any worse by someone with plumbing skills.

Producing a Checklist of tools

Producing a list of tools is a task that can be worked on if you find yourself alone or you are working on PAT testing during the weekend, (see also Portable Appliance Testing Records at http://nhpat.ocatelle.xyz/login/). There is already a wiki page for this list that can be updated by anyone :)

The wiki page for the list is located here: Tool list

CNC Area

Loose tools sitting on the stepper controller

Dust shoe for CNC Mill

This is a low priority task that could be worked on if alone in the space during the shutdown. It will probably require some 3D Modelling skill.

The mill could potentially be fitted with a removable dust shoe that has an attachment for the hoover. Something that looks something like this: http://www.cncrouterparts.com/universal-cnc-dust-shoe-p-396.html

Tool Storage Rack

See: Project:CNC Tool Storage

The collets and tools are currently sitting loose on the stepper controller under the CNC PC monitor. I would like to get some kind of tool rack made to better organise the area. The rack should include provision space for more tools to be added in the future.
