The Hub is open 24/7 to students. There is a first aid box located on the west side wall of the Tool Room.  The box contains band-aids and other basic first aid needs. This is not a campus supply and should not be used as a supply source for your personal first aid kit.  If you do happen to get blood on the floor or equipment you need to contact the technician or security.  There are contact phone numbers listed  on the first aid box.

There are several pieces of equipment in the Hub that can be extremely hot and they will burn you.  Pay attention and don't assume that a machine was off when you make contact with it.

First, there are approximately 8 open workbenches that are open for general use. Each of these has a permanent home that is marked on the floor. Each of these tables should be surrounded by 4 chairs. Each of these tables is also equipped with power outlets on each leg. These are connected with cables and cable tied - please do not cut these cable ties (why has someone been doing this??? why???). There is one power plug for each table that can be plugged into the power outlet that comes down from the ceiling. These power outlets have been positioned so that that they hang directly down by the table. These tables are on wheels and can be moved. However, when you have finished with the table, please reset the space. Ensure that the table is placed back inside of the special marks on the floor, plug in the table, and make sure that the four chairs are back around the table. When you RESET THE SPACE, it makes it nice for those following behind you. And we want to be nice … don’t we? Yes is the answer to that question. If you need to leave your project out on a table, you must mark it as in use, with your Name, Team/Project, initial date, and reason for leaving it out. There needs to be a decent reason for this, and it shouldn’t stay out for more than three days. If there are special circumstances, please speak with your project advisor and/or the technician.

If you are a senior and you need tools for your project and don’t want to return them, check them out from the toolroom. If we don’t have them, speak with your advisor and we can see about getting them. In the meantime, put them back. If you are an employee and need equipment and/or tools in your place of employment, do not abscond with the tools on the wall. You may certainly use them, but you must put them back. If you want tools permanently in your shop, ask the technician and the problem can be remedied.

There are eight rolling computers that also have permanent homes at marked spaces around the HUB. They are all the same as the Computer Lab machines with the exception of numbers 7 and 8. These machines also have the Adobe Creative Suite software. Each of these 8 machines have UPS power supplies that allow you to unplug the machine and move it around the Maker Hub without powering it down. You allegedly have about 15 minutes of power available from these UPS supplies (if anyone actually times it, let us know). Feel free to use these computers wherever you want to use them … they often make their way into meeting rooms. However, when you have finished, as always RESET THE SPACE! The computers, when not in use, should always be sitting, plugged in, at their permanent locations. This is especially important if you take them into a lab or the senior design studio, or one of the other Maker Hub shops. When you have finished sitting at the machine, return it. Do not leave it in a different space. If your senior design team or lab or shop needs an extra computer, speak with your project advisor or the technician and we can address the situation. BE PROFESSIONAL!
