=== Things that need doing around the space ===
=== Things that need doing around the space ===
* If you're going to use the welders or the forge, close the cylinders when you're done
** Otherwise, the cylinders run dry and cost money
* Recycle electronics and other waste from limbo
** Don't bring things in to put into limbo
* Keep the dock clear - especially on Wednesday and Thursday this week
* Please empty the trash - but don't overfill the dumpster!
** If the lid will not close, waste management will not take our trash
* Remember to empty dust collectors before you use shop equipment
** Two basins collecting dust- one by planer and one by dust collector
** Check before your job, because if they get full, dust backs up and ruins everything
** Empty the rolling shopvac too!
* We need some help with IT projects for PS1 - email Doorman Dave for more details
* Clean up your dishes. If dishwasher is full, run it. If clean, empty dishwasher.
