Metalspace Improvements Meeting 2025 june 19th with Alan, Ellis, Kristian, Nicholas - about making the Metalspace more Ship-Shape. It's generally accepted to be 'in a state' - not so usable, not organised, not under control, and only usable by a tiny niche. 'not working for the HS'. These are my words, but try to summerise the feeling Wiki proposal this is surrounding A-list Lighting

Clearout

Safety

Lock Cabinet

B-list Ventilation

Lighting

Everybody's big #1 Getting the central bulb in, is easiest and first, and we have access to mark's big ladder Lighting above the lathe, ellis will make a bracket for - extend 1m+ out, and be drilled into the wall Maybe other lighting ideas. Kristian will look at wiring options. (avoid sockets or get more?)

CCTV

Is "other people" a problem? and how much? CCTV is switched off and maybe moved. Wire CCTV in a way that makes it harder to disable. Kristian will look at/do.

Lockable cabinet

for tools we care about - yes. Alan will look to get a large metal cupboard thing.

Clearout

There is tons of shite, so Alan will come with trailer. Ellis keen to help. Toby will be required to identify stuff.

The cemement mixer bowl "as bin" should go.
Safety

Ellis will look through to see what PPE we have N and K think a communal respirator is a good idea. Alan is not so sure. Ellis would like £1500 welding/respirator thing.

PPE box / cupboard / shelf with names on whos it is

Also, we need (to consider) broom / dustpan / vacuum (ellis keen) - henry hoover will do. (pen paper), latex gloves, bin, wipes, blue-roll,

Lock Cabinet

Seems required and people are keen. Alan talks of large metal cabinet. Kristian mentioned doorbot technology.

B-issues for later

Ventilation

Fumes from the welder is the main issue, but general extraction is good. But, in the longer term, setting on the sandblaster where the hammers are (ellis will clear that area - possibly creating a hammer board)

Then using good extraction (not just throwing sand out of the window), with general space extraction. Possibly fume-hood for the welder (?)

Water

currently, ellis wheels water to the HS with a crap funnel. This could be better. Kristian suggested taking rain water at the same time as making the ventilation.

Less Grey Zone

Toby/ HS tools are unclear

Other

The milling machine is not-great, and position might change The hammers desk, ellis will look to sort out a bit, as it might be where the sandblaster goes The area opposite the lathe is not being used well. The desk is obscuring the shelves, and is not used for much.
