Introduction
Munich Maker Lab is an open workshop that aims to be inclusive and welcomes everyone that wants to build, hack, learn new things or just meet new people. Our core principles are based on trust and openness. While we try to keep any limiting measures such as rules at a minimum, it is not possible to live without them in order to set a baseline that helps to avoid conflicts between members and the relatively strict German law. Questions and comments can be directed to vorstand [at] munichmakerlab [dot] de.
For both, members and guests, it is obligatory to follow the rules stated on the law and order page.
Law & order changes
These rules and policies are subject to change. The latest version can be found in the wiki, located at wiki.munichmakerlab.de or as printed version at the space.
Be excellent to each other
Be excellent to other users of the space and our neighbors. Ask before doing annoying things that are loud, smelly or dusty. Being excellent goes beyond being respectful: Collaborate, be honest, always leave the space better than you found it. Ask questions, help others. Harmful behavior, harassment, stalking, theft, hazing, and otherwise being the opposite of excellent is unacceptable - also see our Code of Conduct.
Keep the space clean and tidy
Workbenches should be completely clean when you leave - be considerate for the next user. Please put tools back where you found them. Clean up after making a mess: If you have engaged in any waste generating activity (e.g. peeling wires, welding, grinding etc), hoover the spot. It is not the purpose of the regular cleanup to clean other member's mess.
Store your stuff appropriately
Be mindful of the space you occupy. The Munich Maker Lab is a shared space and others want to work on their projects too.
There are multiple options when storing personal property in the space:
- Each member can store up to two euroboxes (see Storage Space for details) with their belongings in the basement. Make sure they are labeled with your name, and are not overflowing.
- If the euroboxes are not sufficient, you can rent a storage box. We have a limited set of these boxes available, join the Wishlist if you think you need one, and we can figure out how to get you one.
- The Project Pallet serves as a short-term storage solution if any of the other two don't fit. Label your things with your name and the current date, and remove it within 7 days. Anything that is unlabeled or past its deadline can be placed in our free-to-use section.
If you need to occupy more space, check with the Plenum beforehand. Otherwise, it'll be considered free-to-use.
Roofs
The roof of the workshop and the roof of the laser cube are not for public use.
- Do not walk on the workshop roof, or store anything up there. It does not support any weight and will break.
- The roof of the Laser & 3D Printing Lounge may be used for storing MuMaLab inventory, but only after consulting with the plenum or vorstand.
Know your tools
Please use only machines you know how to use and operate. Some devices have special rules or require special safety measures for use. Safety sheets for specific equipment are located near the machines. If you don't know how to use a specific machine, ask an experienced member prior to use or experiment with it.
Please see
Use safety equipment and follow best-practice
It is mandatory to use safety equipment. Do not leave machines running unattended. Do not attempt to stop running equipment with any part of your body. Be aware of all equipment around you, especially moving parts. Check that all pieces and tooling are properly secured before operating equipment.
See Workshop Safety for more detailed safety precautions.
No smoking
It is not allowed to smoke in the space. The same holds true for any use of electronic cigarettes.
Stay Safe
Don't perform experiments, e.g. with electricity or other dangerous goods, that can harm people including yourself, environments or cause (fire) hazards. This includes any kind of body modifications. Also, keep other users of the space in mind.
Respect others property
Ask before borrowing stuff. Free to use does NOT mean free to take or free to hack. Do not tamper with or manipulate others property (e.g. putting stickers on devices). Do not open tools and equipment that you don't own or have the permission to do so. If you happen to break anything, inform the owner (if possible) and let the board of directors (vorstand@munichmakerlab.de) know.
New tools and machinery
When donating or lending a tool or machine to the space, make sure it's of use to the space. When in doubt, ask the Plenum. Anything larger than a member euro box needs to be approved by the Plenum. In addition to having it approved, we encourage to document any new machine in the wiki.
Use the designated workspace
The meeting area is for meetings, gatherings, software hacking and other non-messy (e.g. oil, dust, etc) work only. The wood and metal workshop is for wood and metal work, as well as painting. The electronics corner is for soldering and other "hardware" related work as well as dry, non-messy work (e.g. textile processing) only. The kitchen is for food & drink preparation only (absolutely no experiments). The gaming corner is for social gathering, playing (VR) games, watching movies and software hacking.
Use the space for the good
Only use the space for the activities described in the statues. If you want to use the space for anything else (e.g. your birthday party), approval by the plenum, or the board in short term situations, is needed. German law applies within the maker space - that also means you can't work on firearms or anything else that is against the German law or ethically questionable. You'll ruin the fun for everyone else as well.
Don't steal
Don't take any tools or equipment off the premise without asking in Slack or the Plenum (if owned by Munich Maker Lab) or approval by the person who owns the equipment. If you borrow something, add it to the Stuff on a mission page in the wiki, so we can keep track of our equipment. Also, pay your drinks or any machines that require payment - remember that someone had to pay for it and it is, therefore, not paying is theft.
The space is not a hotel
You're tired or missed your last train? Grab a pillow and get comfortable. But we're not your apartment or a hotel, using the lab as accommodation is not allowed.
Don't tamper, remove or relocate safety equipment
Safety equipment such as fire extinguishers and first aid kits are for emergency use only. Do not use them for experiments, relocate them or tamper them in any way.
Pictures, Videos and Livestreaming
If you want to take pictures or record video in the space, make sure to have the consent of everyone who's in the images. If it's planned, announce it in Slack in advance, and have it added to the calender or roombooking.
