PS:1 is a Do-acracy. Here is some of what we do:
Notice: Clean Up After Yourself
- Leaving your projects on the table when you leave is very bad karma. Put them away on the side.
- 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.
