• Change to cleaning policy to read: Digital Fabrication contains equipment that is sensitive to dust and mess. The room must be cleaned by users of the tools according to the signage in the room and this policy. There is a whiteboard in the room that indicates the last time cleaning happened. If it has been longer than the requirement for the tool you’re using, you must vacuum the room and wipe down all horizontal surfaces. You will be dinged and referred to the executive for a potential ban (depending on the case) if you ignore this rule.

0 AGAINST, 0 ABSTAINING, Motion Passed.

• Ongoing budget wording changes to read:
  • Monthly consumables discretionary - $100. This is for purchases of cause consumables not included in any of the budgets below.
  • Quarterly filament discretionary - $300. This budget can be used every 3 months to buy new filament.
  • Monthly repair discretionary - $150. This budget can be used to purchase new parts and cover any expenses related to repairs or upgrades of digifab tools as determined necessary by the cause leader.

• don’t create mess in the Digifab room, our tools are sensitive to dust etc.
• return tools to their homes and don’t remove them from the Digifab room.
• read the wiki before attempting to use a tool in Digital Fabrication.
• don’t leave machines running unattended.
• don’t use tools that are marked as out of order.
• pay for all consumables you use unless they are for improving digifab or HSBNE infrastructure.
• don’t use your own consumables in a machine unless you have received permission from a maintainer of that machine.
• precisely follow a tool’s workflow unless you have received permission from a maintainer of that tool to adjust it.
• report all broken or misbehaving tools using the “Report Issue” link in the portal or by sending an email to issues@hsbne.org.
