Hot Metal Shop Plans for 2019
Revision as of 19:20, 27 December 2018 by Tachoknight (talk | contribs)
These are the ideas and goals I'm looking forward to in 2019 for the Hot Metal Shop. Folks can add items and as items are done (or deferred or just outright abandoned) they should be struck out with a date so everyone knows what the status is.
Shop Improvement
All the things that make a nice environment to work in
Absolutely Doable
- New table to replace the sad one holding up the powder coating oven as valiantly as it can
- Revitalize the sand blasting cabinet (new dust collection system and gloves)
- LED lighting by the racks (already have the light strip, just gotta put it together)
- Concerto-based screen for HMS-specific stuff (need RPi and screen) mounted on wall
- Fusion360 post processor for CNC plasma machine
Worth the Ol' College Try
- Getting the Emerson bandsaw to cut straight
- THC working on the CNC plasma
- Rearrange the tool cart
Stretch Goals
- More contributed art on the walls
- WPA-inspired safety signage
- Keeping the shop clean
Spending Money
Here we keep track of the things we might look into buying. Likely everything in this section is a vote.
Possible Purchases
- Power hammer for forge
- New sand blasting cabinet
