Broken/Equipment Report

Please make sure that you review the instructions and manual and ask for the training prior to using the equipment.

  • If something is broken or needs to be replaced, please send an email to broken@lvl1.org.
  • Please supply as much information as possible; links to websites or items are GREATLY appreciated. Consumables can be time-consuming to find; broken is not a mind reader!

Currently Broken


Quests

  • Save the Planet - Reminder that there is a recycling can for cans next to the stairs for the bathroom.
  • Put that back where it came from, or so help me! - Reminder to put tools away when you are not actively using them!
  • I Need a Name - Metal Matt is taking suggestions for the new names for the 3d printers. See White Board.
  • Soda Machine Card Readers We have multiple avenues of completing this project and we need input from members. We need to speak with the member who installed the badge reader on the laser. We want to duplicate that system for the vending machine. Same badge reader, same software, same Arduino, but applied to receiving payment in the soda machine. We also need to implement a payment system that communicates with the arduino be it Pike13, PayPal, Stripe or some other service.
