This is our working room.

Contains

  • a full featured soldering environment with a lot of tools
  • A couple of 3D printers: Makerbot and Ultimaker
  • Lockers for our member's stuff. Without locks in fact, the name is may be badly chosen
  • Working tables to hack on your projects
  • Some workstations and laptops for usage
  • A workbench for the big load
  • A big load of stored stuff and equipment
  • A chalkboard :-)
  • and a lot more

Current layout plan

The rack and steel locker standing there outside the door are located in the entry hall.


Brainstorming for new layout

Why a new layout?

Space is becoming restricted as more and more stuff and people need room. Also the workbench can produce dust and noise as well as the soldering table gives off some smells too.


If you want to try your own arrangement, here are the building blocks Lab2013playground.svg

One idea is to put the lockers in the middle of the room, forming a wall. This would separate the room into 2 parts. One workshop part and one desks part. On top of the lockers, using wood planks across, more storage room can be created. Our rooms are 3m high, and this way we can use that height.

Below are some layouts issued from brainstorming.


Just turning the steel lockers and put shelves on top to make more storage room

Several layouts with the workshop near the sink

Using the lockers to build a wall, and a table as submerged entry point to a dedicated workshop. Yes, you always wondered what the jeffries tubes in Star Trek are so impractical? Well maybe this crazy idea shows that this stuff is just cool but plain silly.

Put the soldering table near the window

Second variation of soldering near window

Build a nice long corridor topped off with storage above. Nothing for tall people...

Same corridor idea, but not so long. The black line near the Ikea rack is a, not yet trademarked, Syn2wall wall we build for the ChillyChill

Several layouts with the workshop near the door

Disadvantage of this is that there is quite some distance from the workshop to the sink. You're faster to the toilets.

Workbench at window, corridor with shelves on top

Less shelves on lockers, more lockers at wall

No more corridor, one huge table

Passage near window, U shape table

Soldering at window, smaller workshop

Same as previous with other tables layout

A couple more tables inside the workshop part
