General Assembly Area Precautions apply   

You will be working in the General Assembly Area . In order to keep safe from hazards created by you or other workers using any of the tools in this room, the following precautions apply in addition to any other precautions:

  • Others in this area might not be wearing full PPE, be mindful in what you do. If you're going to do work that could harm others, it's best to warn them and make sure they either put on PPE or leave the area.
  • Be particularly careful when cutting with materials or tools that can shatter easily (eg removing PLA supports, using Dremel with a cutoff disk). People nearby may not be wearing their safety glasses.
  • Don't do serious sanding, grinding, air cleaning in here (in general, limit the amount of stuff that's going into the air). We do not currently have any dust or fume extraction in the main assembly area.

To ensure common workspace tables remain relatively clean and free of buildup, members using the tables for glue ups, or any messy project are required to protect and cover the tables. For ease of covering some tables have been equipped with a roll of plastic tarp. There is also a roll of kraft paper available near the door to the Tool Room in the General Assembly Area that should be used to mask tables before gluing or painting. Members who do not follow such procedures and leave a mess on the tables will be subject to progressive discipline and/or resurfacing the table themselves.
