"Someone should ..." - This phrase is uttered very often when it comes to upgrades in the space, so why not gather all the ideas here?

How this page works

  1. You have an idea how to improve something in the Lab.
  2. Write down the basic infos in the table below.
  3. As the project idea matures write down any further details/instructions onto this page.
    For bigger projects (> 2 weeks working time) consider to create an own project page on the wiki.
  4. Introduce your project on the next plenum or gather people to help you.
  5. When finished move it to the "Finished Projects" table and tell everybody in Slack (#completed-projects) which awesome improvement you did!

Finished Projects 🥳

Title Description Done by Month/Year
Laser Cutter door brackets The current brackets for the laser cutter door are old prints and are all cracking, this means the front door panel can come off if all brackets fail. Ideally we would design bulkier brackets with modern materials and install them Adrian & Bernhard 10/2024
Improved water tap at men's toilet The foot switch has been installed with minimal changes to the wiring. If someone wants to do some extra improvements (e.g. bolt it to the ground, improve water resistance with a gasket here and there) they're welcome to :) Adrian 10/2024
