Description
This is a plain, un-filled-out example of a PS:1 Equipment Label. One of these (filled out with all appropriate information) should appear somewhere on EVERY piece of equipment and on any tool big enough to accommodate it (drill press, yes - screwdriver, no) whether it is owned by a member or the space. The label is the way we track what a thing is, and what happens to it, who owns it, how to get authorized on it and how to use it. It links the physical item to the PS:1 wiki and all external resources like the manufacturer's site and the operator's manual.
How To Make A Label
Instructions, such as they are (they are hard and could stand to be rewritten) for the label can be found here: https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Template:EquipmentPage
When to Make A Label
Labels are created when a tool or equipment wiki page which incorporates the Equipment Label template is made. You can print out the label from the tool's wiki page, and attach it to the tool. If there is no label, incomplete labeling, or incorrect labeling, you can make changes or additions to the wiki to fix that.
