What We Do

Notice: Clean Up After Yourself

  • Leaving your projects on the table when you leave is very bad karma. Put them in your locker, take them home or (rarely) put them to the side and mark them, lest they be purged during cleaning.
    • Things not labeled/sitting out for a long time are fair game.
  • Put tools away.
  • Label projects so we don't think it's spare parts. See the 2nd bullet.
