As you will be aware the space is closed during Lockdown however we have kept it open for anyone wanting to do work on the space as it can be classed as construction site
Below is a list of tasks that need completing in the space, some of these need planning or additional materials so before doing these please discuss them on here or in telegram with the infrastructure teams. It maybe beneficial to create a new forum topic to discuss the task’s in greater detail.
These tasks will also be added to Trello where you should move something to complete once its done so we can easily see what’s still left to do.
If you wish to volunteer to do any of these drop an email to board@hacman.org.uk with the tasks your willing to do and when you would do them so we can arrange for your fob to be activated for those times

I’ll be picking up some stuff for filling in / painting the toilet floor on Sunday (primer for levelling compound, levelling compound, paint)
Although I understand at the moment I need to wait until Monday before I can check if I can get access Monday evening.
For the painting of the ceiling I’d recommend the thicker stuff since it doesn’t drip and covers the walls better. (I think we left a tub of the thinner stuff down there which we gave up on when we painted the cnc room)
I’ll take some pics of the tubs we used the next time I’m down there.
For info for the floor paint in the cnc and metal work rooms, we’ve used Ronseal garage floor paint from b and q. It’s a bit expensive but it’s proper stuff.
We picked some more up recently for when we make a start on the toilet floor area.
Generally it’s also better to do the ceiling first so that white paint is covered up by floor paint, although in this case since the toilet area is quite small we’ll just cover up the floor when we do the ceiling afterwards.
I’ve updated the task list above to reflect what has been completed as well as add new tasks that need completing (along with dates to give some idea of timescale).
Since the space has been open for over two months I think we can resume carrying out major infrastructure tasks once again. Obviously with the current Covid situation please take care and be respectful to other by practicing the Covid measures put in place by the board. As always members should take care to keep disruption to a minimum.
A heads up to the board (board@hacman.org.uk) when you are carrying out any of the task would also be appreciated. Depending on the circumstances and with Board approval, the space may be willing to reimburse any costs expected to carry out work listed above. This would only be approved prior to work being carried out however and subject to the boards discretion.
