Line 48:
Line 48: − + − 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!
→2. Reset the Space
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.

There are smaller blue tables that also have spots marked on the floor for their permanent homes. These tables reside on the wall nearest the quad. These tables can be used as transport tables for your projects. There are some limited storage locations in the Hub, and you can use these tables to transport your projects from these locations to wherever you might need in the Hub. When you are finished using these tables, please clear them off and put them back. If, for some special reason, you need the table to be in use for a short time (less than three days), mark the table as in use. This is useful if you want to run overnight tests or you are in the middle of an assembly. However, this is for short term use. Remember, BE PROFESSIONAL. Release the materials for others.

On the wall are a set of tools. These are available for use within the Maker Hub. As should be obvious, when you are done using the tools, return them - RESET THE SPACE. For example, if you use a tool put it back when you are done. Not much of an example. Sort of hard to make this any more clear. Let’s say it is a wrench - and you use it. When you are done - put it back. Get it? The tools are marked with blue paint to indicate they belong in the Maker Hub.
