&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Slack is a messaging program used to communicate with members associated within an&amp;amp;nbsp;organization.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) uses Slack to communicate with all its members about upcoming events, potential jobs to bid for on our job&amp;amp;nbsp;board, to&amp;amp;nbsp;showcase the amazing things that get made in our space, and so&amp;amp;nbsp;much&amp;amp;nbsp;more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slack is the main method of communication for our makerspace, so if you’re not a part of it you’re missing&amp;amp;nbsp;out!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==New Members Start Here==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===How Do I Get Access to Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
After you register for membership and set up payment through Optix (our&amp;amp;nbsp;membership management software), you will automatically receive an invite, via email, to the makerspace’s Slack workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So check your email!&#039;&#039;&#039; Maybe the invite landed in your spam box.&lt;br /&gt;
===Should I Introduce Myself on Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
That’s a great question and &#039;&#039;&#039;YES&#039;&#039;&#039;, you absolutely should! In fact, we have an automated workflow in place that will make introducing yourself super easy and fun! Just&amp;amp;nbsp;be on the lookout for a direct message from Slack when you first sign into your Slack account.&lt;br /&gt;
===What Resources Can Help Me as a New Member?===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a &#039;&#039;&#039;#new-members&#039;&#039;&#039; channel that has great resources on where to start, how we operate, and a great place to ask those inevitable &amp;quot;dumb&amp;quot; questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/213817348-Slack-glossary Slack glossary]&#039;&#039;&#039; (common terms that you might encounter as you&#039;re working in Slack) might be&amp;amp;nbsp;helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic Slack Functions==&lt;br /&gt;
===How do you...===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...manage pinned messages and bookmark links?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use either [https://slack.com/help/articles/205239997-Pin-messages-and-bookmark-links &#039;&#039;&#039;desktop or mobile device.&#039;&#039;&#039;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...change your Slack Preferences?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose your profile picture (in the top right) and from the drop down menu pick &amp;quot;Preferences&amp;quot; from the (over 10) categories that appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...use Slack&#039;s Help Feature?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the small question mark just to the left of your profile picture, and type in a question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, typing just &amp;quot;enter key&amp;quot; will retrieve a Help page on how to &amp;quot;Set your Enter key preference&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
====...check Slack Status and uptime history?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
====...join a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
As a member you can monitor and/or join any public channels for this workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feel free to search through the public channels listed on the left side navigation bar and choose which channels you want to join!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Need more guidance? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/205239967-Join-a-channel how to join a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...mute a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Getting too many notifications? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/204411433-Mute-channels-and-direct-messages how to mute channel or DM notifications]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(It’s not possible to mute notifications from Slackbot.)&lt;br /&gt;
====...leave a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Not interested in being in a channel anymore? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/201375146-Leave-a-channel how to leave a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Slack is a messaging program used to communicate with members associated within an&amp;amp;nbsp;organization.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) uses Slack to communicate with all its members about upcoming events, potential jobs to bid for on our job&amp;amp;nbsp;board, to&amp;amp;nbsp;showcase the amazing things that get made in our space, and so&amp;amp;nbsp;much&amp;amp;nbsp;more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slack is the main method of communication for our makerspace, so if you’re not a part of it you’re missing&amp;amp;nbsp;out!&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==New Members Start Here==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===How Do I Get Access to Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
After you register for membership and set up payment through Optix (our&amp;amp;nbsp;membership management software), you will automatically receive an invite, via email, to the makerspace’s Slack workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So check your email!&#039;&#039;&#039; Maybe the invite landed in your spam box.&lt;br /&gt;
===Should I Introduce Myself on Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
That’s a great question and &#039;&#039;&#039;YES&#039;&#039;&#039;, you absolutely should! In fact, we have an automated workflow in place that will make introducing yourself super easy and fun! Just&amp;amp;nbsp;be on the lookout for a direct message from Slack when you first sign into your Slack account.&lt;br /&gt;
===What Resources Can Help Me as a New Member?===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a &#039;&#039;&#039;#new-members&#039;&#039;&#039; channel that has great resources on where to start, how we operate, and a great place to ask those inevitable &amp;quot;dumb&amp;quot; questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/213817348-Slack-glossary Slack glossary]&#039;&#039;&#039; (common terms that you might encounter as you&#039;re working in Slack) might be&amp;amp;nbsp;helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic Slack Functions==&lt;br /&gt;
===How do you...===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...manage pinned messages and bookmark links?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use either [https://slack.com/help/articles/205239997-Pin-messages-and-bookmark-links &#039;&#039;&#039;desktop or mobile device.&#039;&#039;&#039;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...change your Slack Preferences?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose your profile picture (in the top right) and from the drop down menu pick &amp;quot;Preferences&amp;quot; from the (over 10) categories that appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...use Slack&#039;s Help Feature?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the small question mark just to the left of your profile picture, and type in a question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, typing just &amp;quot;enter key&amp;quot; will retrieve a Help page on how to &amp;quot;Set your Enter key preference&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
====...check Slack Status and uptime history?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Slack is a messaging program used to communicate with members associated within an&amp;amp;nbsp;organization.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) uses Slack to communicate with all its members about upcoming events, potential jobs to bid for on our job&amp;amp;nbsp;board, to&amp;amp;nbsp;showcase the amazing things that get made in our space, and so&amp;amp;nbsp;much&amp;amp;nbsp;more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slack is the main method of communication for our makerspace, so if you’re not a part of it you’re missing&amp;amp;nbsp;out!&lt;br /&gt;

==New Members Start Here==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===How Do I Get Access to Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
After you register for membership and set up payment through Optix (our&amp;amp;nbsp;membership management software), you will automatically receive an invite, via email, to the makerspace’s Slack workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So check your email!&#039;&#039;&#039; Maybe the invite landed in your spam box.&lt;br /&gt;
===Should I Introduce Myself on Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
That’s a great question and &#039;&#039;&#039;YES&#039;&#039;&#039;, you absolutely should! In fact, we have an automated workflow in place that will make introducing yourself super easy and fun! Just&amp;amp;nbsp;be on the lookout for a direct message from Slack when you first sign into your Slack account.&lt;br /&gt;
===What Resources Can Help Me as a New Member?===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a &#039;&#039;&#039;#new-members&#039;&#039;&#039; channel that has great resources on where to start, how we operate, and a great place to ask those inevitable &amp;quot;dumb&amp;quot; questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/213817348-Slack-glossary Slack glossary]&#039;&#039;&#039; (common terms that you might encounter as you&#039;re working in Slack) might be&amp;amp;nbsp;helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic Slack Functions==&lt;br /&gt;
===How do you...===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...manage pinned messages and bookmark links?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use either [https://slack.com/help/articles/205239997-Pin-messages-and-bookmark-links &#039;&#039;&#039;desktop or mobile device.&#039;&#039;&#039;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...change your Slack Preferences?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose your profile picture (in the top right) and from the drop down menu pick &amp;quot;Preferences&amp;quot; from the (over 10) categories that appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...use Slack&#039;s Help Feature?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the small question mark just to the left of your profile picture, and type in a question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, typing just &amp;quot;enter key&amp;quot; will retrieve a Help page on how to &amp;quot;Set your Enter key preference&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
====...check Slack Status and uptime history?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
====...join a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
As a member you can monitor and/or join any public channels for this workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feel free to search through the public channels listed on the left side navigation bar and choose which channels you want to join!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Need more guidance? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/205239967-Join-a-channel how to join a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...mute a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Getting too many notifications? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/204411433-Mute-channels-and-direct-messages how to mute channel or DM notifications]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(It’s not possible to mute notifications from Slackbot.)&lt;br /&gt;
====...leave a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Not interested in being in a channel anymore? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/201375146-Leave-a-channel how to leave a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Slack is a messaging program used to communicate with members associated within an&amp;amp;nbsp;organization.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) uses Slack to communicate with all its members about upcoming events, potential jobs to bid for on our job&amp;amp;nbsp;board, to&amp;amp;nbsp;showcase the amazing things that get made in our space, and so&amp;amp;nbsp;much&amp;amp;nbsp;more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slack is the main method of communication for our makerspace, so if you’re not a part of it you’re missing&amp;amp;nbsp;out!&lt;br /&gt;

==New Members Start Here==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===How Do I Get Access to Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
After you register for membership and set up payment through Optix (our&amp;amp;nbsp;membership management software), you will automatically receive an invite, via email, to the makerspace’s Slack workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So check your email!&#039;&#039;&#039; Maybe the invite landed in your spam box.&lt;br /&gt;
===Should I Introduce Myself on Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
That’s a great question and &#039;&#039;&#039;YES&#039;&#039;&#039;, you absolutely should! In fact, we have an automated workflow in place that will make introducing yourself super easy and fun! Just&amp;amp;nbsp;be on the lookout for a direct message from Slack when you first sign into your Slack account.&lt;br /&gt;
===What Resources Can Help Me as a New Member?===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a &#039;&#039;&#039;#new-members&#039;&#039;&#039; channel that has great resources on where to start, how we operate, and a great place to ask those inevitable &amp;quot;dumb&amp;quot; questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/213817348-Slack-glossary Slack glossary]&#039;&#039;&#039; (common terms that you might encounter as you&#039;re working in Slack) might be&amp;amp;nbsp;helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic Slack Functions==&lt;br /&gt;
===How do you...===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...manage pinned messages and bookmark links?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use either [https://slack.com/help/articles/205239997-Pin-messages-and-bookmark-links &#039;&#039;&#039;desktop or mobile device.&#039;&#039;&#039;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...change your Slack Preferences?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose your profile picture (in the top right) and from the drop down menu pick &amp;quot;Preferences&amp;quot; from the (over 10) categories that appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...use Slack&#039;s Help Feature?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the small question mark just to the left of your profile picture, and type in a question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, typing just &amp;quot;enter key&amp;quot; will retrieve a Help page on how to &amp;quot;Set your Enter key preference&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
====...check Slack Status and uptime history?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Slack is a messaging program used to communicate with members associated within an&amp;amp;nbsp;organization.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) uses Slack to communicate with all its members about upcoming events, potential jobs to bid for on our job&amp;amp;nbsp;board, to&amp;amp;nbsp;showcase the amazing things that get made in our space, and so&amp;amp;nbsp;much&amp;amp;nbsp;more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slack is the main method of communication for our makerspace, so if you’re not a part of it you’re missing&amp;amp;nbsp;out!&lt;br /&gt;

==New Members Start Here==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===How Do I Get Access to Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
After you register for membership and set up payment through Optix (our&amp;amp;nbsp;membership management software), you will automatically receive an invite, via email, to the makerspace’s Slack workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So check your email!&#039;&#039;&#039; Maybe the invite landed in your spam box.&lt;br /&gt;
===Should I Introduce Myself on Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
That’s a great question and &#039;&#039;&#039;YES&#039;&#039;&#039;, you absolutely should! In fact, we have an automated workflow in place that will make introducing yourself super easy and fun! Just&amp;amp;nbsp;be on the lookout for a direct message from Slack when you first sign into your Slack account.&lt;br /&gt;
===What Resources Can Help Me as a New Member?===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a &#039;&#039;&#039;#new-members&#039;&#039;&#039; channel that has great resources on where to start, how we operate, and a great place to ask those inevitable &amp;quot;dumb&amp;quot; questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/213817348-Slack-glossary Slack glossary]&#039;&#039;&#039; (common terms that you might encounter as you&#039;re working in Slack) might be&amp;amp;nbsp;helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic Slack Functions==&lt;br /&gt;
===How do you...===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...manage pinned messages and bookmark links?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use either [https://slack.com/help/articles/205239997-Pin-messages-and-bookmark-links &#039;&#039;&#039;desktop or mobile device.&#039;&#039;&#039;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...change your Slack Preferences?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose your profile picture (in the top right) and from the drop down menu pick &amp;quot;Preferences&amp;quot; from the (over 10) categories that appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...use Slack&#039;s Help Feature?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the small question mark just to the left of your profile picture, and type in a question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, typing just &amp;quot;enter key&amp;quot; will retrieve a Help page on how to &amp;quot;Set your Enter key preference&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
====...check Slack Status and uptime history?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
====...join a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
As a member you can monitor and/or join any public channels for this workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feel free to search through the public channels listed on the left side navigation bar and choose which channels you want to join!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Need more guidance? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/205239967-Join-a-channel how to join a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...mute a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Getting too many notifications? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/204411433-Mute-channels-and-direct-messages how to mute channel or DM notifications]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(It’s not possible to mute notifications from Slackbot.)&lt;br /&gt;
====...leave a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Not interested in being in a channel anymore? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/201375146-Leave-a-channel how to leave a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Slack is a messaging program used to communicate with members associated within an&amp;amp;nbsp;organization.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) uses Slack to communicate with all its members about upcoming events, potential jobs to bid for on our job&amp;amp;nbsp;board, to&amp;amp;nbsp;showcase the amazing things that get made in our space, and so&amp;amp;nbsp;much&amp;amp;nbsp;more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slack is the main method of communication for our makerspace, so if you’re not a part of it you’re missing&amp;amp;nbsp;out!&lt;br /&gt;

==New Members Start Here==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;&#039;How Do I Get Access to Slack?&#039;&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
After you register for membership and set up payment through Optix (our&amp;amp;nbsp;membership management software), you will automatically receive an invite, via email, to the makerspace’s Slack workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So check your email!&#039;&#039;&#039; Maybe the invite landed in your spam box.&lt;br /&gt;
===Should I Introduce Myself on Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
That’s a great question and &#039;&#039;&#039;YES&#039;&#039;&#039;, you absolutely should! In fact, we have an automated workflow in place that will make introducing yourself super easy and fun! Just&amp;amp;nbsp;be on the lookout for a direct message from Slack when you first sign into your Slack account.&lt;br /&gt;
===What Resources Can Help Me as a New Member?===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a &#039;&#039;&#039;#new-members&#039;&#039;&#039; channel that has great resources on where to start, how we operate, and a great place to ask those inevitable &amp;quot;dumb&amp;quot; questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/213817348-Slack-glossary Slack glossary]&#039;&#039;&#039; (common terms that you might encounter as you&#039;re working in Slack) might be&amp;amp;nbsp;helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic Slack Functions==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;&#039;How do you...&#039;&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...manage pinned messages and bookmark links?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use either [https://slack.com/help/articles/205239997-Pin-messages-and-bookmark-links &#039;&#039;&#039;desktop or mobile device.&#039;&#039;&#039;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...change your Slack Preferences?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose your profile picture (in the top right) and from the drop down menu pick &amp;quot;Preferences&amp;quot; from the (over 10) categories that appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...use Slack&#039;s Help Feature?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the small question mark just to the left of your profile picture, and type in a question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, typing just &amp;quot;enter key&amp;quot; will retrieve a Help page on how to &amp;quot;Set your Enter key preference&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
====...check Slack Status and uptime history?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Slack is a messaging program used to communicate with members associated within an&amp;amp;nbsp;organization.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) uses Slack to communicate with all its members about upcoming events, potential jobs to bid for on our job&amp;amp;nbsp;board, to&amp;amp;nbsp;showcase the amazing things that get made in our space, and so&amp;amp;nbsp;much&amp;amp;nbsp;more!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slack is the main method of communication for our makerspace, so if you’re not a part of it you’re missing&amp;amp;nbsp;out!&lt;br /&gt;

==New Members Start Here==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;&#039;How Do I Get Access to Slack?&#039;&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
After you register for membership and set up payment through Optix (our&amp;amp;nbsp;membership management software), you will automatically receive an invite, via email, to the makerspace’s Slack workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;So check your email!&#039;&#039;&#039; Maybe the invite landed in your spam box.&lt;br /&gt;
===Should I Introduce Myself on Slack?===&lt;br /&gt;
That’s a great question and &#039;&#039;&#039;YES&#039;&#039;&#039;, you absolutely should! In fact, we have an automated workflow in place that will make introducing yourself super easy and fun! Just&amp;amp;nbsp;be on the lookout for a direct message from Slack when you first sign into your Slack account.&lt;br /&gt;
===What Resources Can Help Me as a New Member?===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a &#039;&#039;&#039;#new-members&#039;&#039;&#039; channel that has great resources on where to start, how we operate, and a great place to ask those inevitable &amp;quot;dumb&amp;quot; questions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And the &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/213817348-Slack-glossary Slack glossary]&#039;&#039;&#039; (common terms that you might encounter as you&#039;re working in Slack) might be&amp;amp;nbsp;helpful.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Basic Slack Functions==&lt;br /&gt;
===&#039;&#039;&#039;How do you...&#039;&#039;&#039;===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...manage pinned messages and bookmark links?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use either [https://slack.com/help/articles/205239997-Pin-messages-and-bookmark-links &#039;&#039;&#039;desktop or mobile device.&#039;&#039;&#039;]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...change your Slack Preferences?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose your profile picture (in the top right) and from the drop down menu pick &amp;quot;Preferences&amp;quot; from the (over 10) categories that appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...use Slack&#039;s Help Feature?====&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the small question mark just to the left of your profile picture, and type in a question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, typing just &amp;quot;enter key&amp;quot; will retrieve a Help page on how to &amp;quot;Set your Enter key preference&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
====...check Slack Status and uptime history?====&lt;br /&gt;
Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
====...join a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
As a member you can monitor and/or join any public channels for this workspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feel free to search through the public channels listed on the left side navigation bar and choose which channels you want to join!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Need more guidance? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/205239967-Join-a-channel how to join a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====...mute a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Getting too many notifications? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/204411433-Mute-channels-and-direct-messages how to mute channel or DM notifications]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(It’s not possible to mute notifications from Slackbot.)&lt;br /&gt;
====...leave a channel====&lt;br /&gt;
Not interested in being in a channel anymore? Here&#039;s  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://slack.com/help/articles/201375146-Leave-a-channel how to leave a channel]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Use this link to &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://status.slack.com check Slack Status]&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
==== ...mention someone or everyone in a channel?====&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to direct a message to someone within a post, you can use the @ symbol and the member&#039;s Slack username.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, If you wanted to ask the administrator to add you to a private channel, you could post this in the &#039;&#039;#general&#039;&#039; channel, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hi! Can I be added to the Tesla access project channel? &#039;&#039;&#039;@PPM Administrator&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That message will directly notify the member! (You could also send the member a direct message!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wanted to message everyone in a specific channel, you can use the &#039;&#039;&#039;@everyone,&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel, or @here:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*@everyone -&amp;gt; notifies everyone in the #general channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@channel -&amp;gt; notifies all members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
*@here -&amp;gt; notifies only the active members in a channel&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Please use tags like this cautiously!&#039;&#039;&#039; They are big noise makers in Slack and members get annoyed when they are being hit with messages constantly and worse if they are not very important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good example of when to use the above tags is when there is a machine down or broken equipment in a work area and you want to notify the right people. We&amp;amp;nbsp;can send a post in the &#039;&#039;#red-tag-issues&#039;&#039; channel like this, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Hey &#039;&#039;&#039;@channel&#039;&#039;&#039;! The band saw is red-tagged due to the blade being off alignment. Our wood shop captain is working on getting it fixed. Please do not use until repaired! Will post here with repair updates&amp;quot;.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
====...join a channel====&lt;br /&gt;

==Channel Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== PPM Channel Rules and Good-To-Knows ====&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a new member, you automatically get joined onto the #general, #random, #showcase, #red-tag-issues, #new-members, #job-board, and #events channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ Additionally, there are other public channels that you can join. We don’t assume that you are interested in every machine or equipment we offer, so you can pick and choose which channels you’d like to be a part&amp;amp;nbsp;of!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ &#039;&#039;&#039;Please be mindful of which channel you are posting to!&#039;&#039;&#039; Keep the discussions based on the descriptions given for each channel. Below is a list of all our public channels created in our Slack workspace. Your&amp;amp;nbsp;post or question should fall into one of the channels below, however, when in doubt, post to the #general channel. This&amp;amp;nbsp;channel is used for general&amp;amp;nbsp;conversations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ If you need to speak with a director or captain directly, you can send them a direct message on Slack. Some are comfortable with being texted directly or by their personal email address. However, please ask&amp;amp;nbsp;first!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:☐ As a rule of thumb, Slack is always a safe first option to get in contact with someone at the space. (Even&amp;amp;nbsp;more reason to get on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Use LightBurn to import/layout/edit or create new artwork then control your laser cutter&#039;s settings&#039;&#039;&#039; such as power, speed, number of passes, and other important&amp;amp;nbsp;settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
LightBurn is a commercial software package for Windows and macOS (but not Linux or mobile devices.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM), we have installed LightBurn on our Design Workstations 2 and 3 and the Boss  and Thunder Laser computers. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;At home LightBurn subscriptions can be purchased at a discounted rate&#039;&#039;&#039; for being a PPM&amp;amp;nbsp;member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The discount code is saved as a Pinned Message in our &#039;laser-cutter&#039; channel in Slack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You will receive an email from LightBurn with your unique registration key.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Make&amp;amp;nbsp;note of that key because you will need it again if you renew your&amp;amp;nbsp;subscription.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your at home subscription is unique to only&amp;amp;nbsp;you. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PPM does not have access to your registration key.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Things to know about Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM):&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* We are a membership composed of Builders, Tinkerers, Engineers, Artists, Entrepreneurs, Designers, and Educators all mashed up and revolutionizing creativity in the Pikes&amp;amp;nbsp;Peak&amp;amp;nbsp;Region.&lt;br /&gt;

* PPM is also a place to gather interested people for classes and&amp;amp;nbsp;instruction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We are tapped into and support the Colorado Springs startup&amp;amp;nbsp;community.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, EIN&amp;amp;nbsp;(Tax&amp;amp;nbsp;ID Number): 81&amp;lt;span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;-0876257&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Our  physical address is: &#039;&#039;&#039;735 East Pikes Peak Ave., Colorado Springs, CO 80903&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;hr style=&amp;quot;height:2.5px; background:#ff6c00;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==Maker Definition==&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;A maker is someone who defines themselves by their ability to turn ideas into reality through creativity, innovation, and hands-on skills.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Makers are typically driven by a desire to create and solve problems, using tools, materials, and technology to bring their visions to life. They often have a passion for a particular field or hobby, such as woodworking, electronics, or crafting, and may be self-taught or have formal training in their area of expertise. Makers take pride in their ability to think outside the box and find unique solutions to challenges, often experimenting with new techniques and materials to achieve their goals. They collaborate with other makers, sharing ideas and knowledge to create something greater than what they could achieve alone. Overall, being a maker is more than just a hobby or profession - it is a mindset and a way of life that values creativity, ingenuity, and hands-on problem-solving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PPM Mission Statement==&lt;br /&gt;
:Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) is a community of cooperative hobbyists and early-stage entrepreneurs that empowers members to turn ideas into&amp;amp;nbsp;reality. We&amp;amp;nbsp;strive to provide access to tools and resources to confidently and safely design, develop and&amp;amp;nbsp;make.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PPM Vision Statement==&lt;br /&gt;
: We exist to catalyze positive change, drive economic growth and social progress by empowering individuals to unleash their full&amp;amp;nbsp;potential.&lt;br /&gt;
: We imagine a future where Pikes Peak Makerspace is the go-to destination for &#039;&#039;&#039;*makers*&#039;&#039;&#039; in the Pikes Peak Region seeking access to resources and knowledge, enabling them to turn their concepts into&amp;amp;nbsp;reality.&lt;br /&gt;
:Through our commitment to fostering a supportive, inclusive, and collaborative community, we will continue to expand our assets and capabilities to meet the evolving needs of the&amp;amp;nbsp;members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Official PPM Name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Our organization&#039;s name can be shortened to PPM, but not PPMS.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;We&amp;amp;nbsp;use &amp;quot;Makerspace&amp;quot; as one&amp;amp;nbsp;word — not&amp;amp;nbsp;two.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Official PPM Logo==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Gears are a common element of many other Makerspace logos, and for us it is also a subtle hat tip to the Pikes Peak Cog&amp;amp;nbsp;Railway.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:1_to_1_logo.png|alt=official PPM logo|frameless|200x200px]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PPM Logo Usage==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Follow these simple guidelines, and always use our logo consistently:&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Animation&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Do not animate as a gear or wheel&lt;br /&gt;
* Bouncing animation as computer screen saver probably OK&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==== 2. Direct Reporting Against a Board Member: ====&lt;br /&gt;
Concerns involving a BOD member may be reported to the Executive Director or a trusted BOD member through email, Slack, or in person. The recipient will document the report and communicate it to the remaining BOD members, excluding the accused individual. The BOD will then investigate the matter and address any concerns directly with the accused member.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Response to Concerns ===&lt;br /&gt;
PPM is committed to responding promptly, confidentially, and effectively to all reports:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Urgent Matters:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Reports involving urgent matters, such as those that threaten the safety, well-being, or integrity of the community, will be addressed immediately upon receipt. The Board of Directors (BOD) will convene as soon as possible —ideally within 24 hours of receiving the report—to review the details and take appropriate action.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Immediate actions may include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Temporarily restricting participation of the individuals involved pending further review.&lt;br /&gt;
* Providing necessary support or resources to impacted members.&lt;br /&gt;
* Engaging external professionals or authorities if required.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;General Concerns:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For non-urgent concerns, reports will be reviewed within (2) two business days to ensure all issues are addressed appropriately. If the reporting party provides contact information, they will receive an acknowledgment of their report and updates as the situation progresses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Investigation:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The BOD (excluding the accused if applicable) will thoroughly review all reports, gathering statements and evidence as&amp;amp;nbsp;necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Resolution:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Appropriate action will be taken based on the findings, which may include mediation, disciplinary measures, or other corrective steps to ensure the safety and inclusivity of the&amp;amp;nbsp;community.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Feedback (If Non-Anonymous):&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When possible, and if contact information is provided, the reporting party will be informed of the outcome of the review.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Maintaining Confidentiality ===&lt;br /&gt;
All reports will be handled with the highest degree of confidentiality. Information will be shared only with those directly involved in addressing the concern.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Zero Tolerance for Retaliation ===&lt;br /&gt;
PPM strictly prohibits retaliation against any member who reports a concern or participates in an investigation. Retaliatory behavior will result in immediate action by the&amp;amp;nbsp;BOD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Education and Prevention ===&lt;br /&gt;
PPM recognizes the importance of prevention through education. We provide:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Training for Leadership: ====&lt;br /&gt;
Board members and the Executive Director will receive periodic training on recognizing and addressing harassment.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Dedicated Spaces===&lt;br /&gt;
A limited number of private dedicated spaces are currently in use. If you are interested in a dedicated workspace, please inquire about joining our waitlist. We are not a storage facility. Do not leave personal items and projects laying around in common areas. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Additionally, observe the following storage policies:&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Project Storage===&lt;br /&gt;
1. Projects must be actively attended to until completed and/or removed from the&amp;amp;nbsp;building.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Woodshop/Metal Shop projects may be kept on site for up to 7 days as long as the following conditions are&amp;amp;nbsp;met.&lt;br /&gt;
*Green Project Storage Tags must be used in the woodshop/metal shop.&lt;br /&gt;
* Projects must be stored out of the way. (under tables or in our shed, for&amp;amp;nbsp;example).&lt;br /&gt;
*After 1 week, you must either remove your project, or fill out a new green tag for another&amp;amp;nbsp;week. Additional weeks are a suggested $10 donation with a max of 4 total weeks.&lt;br /&gt;
*If your tag has expired, a PPM Deputy may reach out to you to remove your&amp;amp;nbsp;project.&lt;br /&gt;
*If one week has passed since contacting you and action has not been taken, your project will be considered abandoned and removed from site or the materials made available to other members&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Personal Item Storage at Pikes Peak Makerspace===&lt;br /&gt;
Projects must be actively attended to until complete and/or stored appropriately in a designated PPM-rentable storage area. Please observe the following storage policies which apply to all areas. Do&amp;amp;nbsp;not leave personal items and projects lying round in common areas; we are not a storage&amp;amp;nbsp;facility. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
GREEN TAG your items if you are leaving temporarily; i.e BRB - had to run to the store to get more glue - be back in 20… that&#039;s okay, HOWEVER you must fill out a GREEN TAG and keep it CLEARLY by your project while it is momentarily unattended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The time length of “momentarily” should be no more than a day. If extended time is unavoidable (waiting for shipping for more materials, etc) you must speak with the Executive Director about any rentable solutions available that will fit your&amp;amp;nbsp;project.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Current storage options available for members:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Blue gym lockers - $10/mo - ideal for personal storage (jackets/small projects/personal items/backpacks/purses)&lt;br /&gt;
# Rollable Clear Tote Storage - $20/mo - ideal for medium to large size projects, materials, or personal tools&lt;br /&gt;
# COMING IN 2025: Woodshed XL storage - $10 for 7&amp;amp;nbsp;days of holding - XL project storage ideal for glue-ups and large&amp;amp;nbsp;projects&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Storage terms and conditions:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
#Hazardous or flammable materials must be labeled and stored in the FLAME CABINET currently located in the vented room, absolutely no exceptions. Please do not forget to remove items once your rent term is complete, the flame cabinet is often forgotten when finishing projects and taking home materials.&lt;br /&gt;
#Please report any noticed damages of PPM-provided storage solutions. Using Slack, a direct message to the Executive Director would be the best person to contact about that.&lt;br /&gt;
# Lost locker keys; a lost key replacement fee will be charged to the renter if a replacement key is needed for the blue&amp;amp;nbsp;lockers&lt;br /&gt;
#Please don’t be the reason we add more terms and conditions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Inventory of Parts, Tools, and Equipment==&lt;br /&gt;
#Anything in a work area is available for use by all members unless otherwise documented/labeled.&lt;br /&gt;
#Items that require training may be secured, but a path to obtain use of said item should be documented.&lt;br /&gt;
#Consumables and other items of value should be reimbursed or a donation made for them.&lt;br /&gt;
# Items to be considered on display and not storage have to be in a designated area or approved by shop operations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Events==&lt;br /&gt;
#Scheduled events take priority over &amp;quot;first come, first serve&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#Scheduled events should align with the organizations goals.&lt;br /&gt;
#All events must be sponsored and attended by a current member.&lt;br /&gt;
#Donations to the space are encouraged but not required to hold events.&lt;br /&gt;
#Guest access to the facility will be limited, and guests may be required to sign waivers before attending the event.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Classes===&lt;br /&gt;
Members are encouraged to seek assistance from and provide assistance to other members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hosting classes is a great way to share skills and&amp;amp;nbsp;knowledge. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instructors must follow the Member Code of Conduct as well as all Rules and Policies posted on this Wiki page. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do not engage in any activity that unreasonably interferes with other member&#039;s usage of the space, regular scheduled events or reserved equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Process for hosting a class:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Requests for the use of the space to hold classes can be made by:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Filling out this [https://forms.gle/PTrNX9yfuq19F4mVA Event Planning Submission Form]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- Contacting Event Coordinators:  Executive Director&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Events or classes involving 5 or more people requires approval and reservation of the needed space/equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Committee meetings and small gatherings between members is permitted in most cases without direct approval of the Executive team as long as abiding by the Member Code of Conduct and rules of the space. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One-on-one coaching, assistance or mentorship does not require prior approval.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Any member wishing to charge a fee for hosting a class must seek prior approval. Fees and promotions will be managed by PPM Event Administrators.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Instructors and PPM will share the revenue from the class. Instructors are compensated based on a sliding scale according to skill, time, effort, materials, usage of the space, equipment requirements, and/or other variables as determined by PPM Event Coordinators. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The final cost of the class and instructor compensation will be negotiated between the instructor and an Event Coordinator.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Types of Organizational Meetings ===&lt;br /&gt;
#The Board of Directors holds regular meetings and will announce meetings via email and Slack. Members are welcome to attend.&lt;br /&gt;
#Classes may be organized and taught by any member in good standing.&lt;br /&gt;
#Community events should support the goals of Pikes Peak Makerspace.&lt;br /&gt;
#If an event requires funding, the event proposal form must be submitted.&lt;br /&gt;
#Membership meetings for projects and community building will be posted on the Pikes Peak Makerspace Events calendar and promoted on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack.&lt;br /&gt;
#*Membership meetings should always include an act of service to the space such as cleaning or updating computers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Program Areas (Shops, Lasers, 3D Printing)==&lt;br /&gt;
Existing Program Areas should have designated Captains to perform critical maintenance and repair&amp;amp;nbsp;tasks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A Captain is a volunteer position who keeps the program area in alignment with the goals of the organization and in line with all rules and procedures. There may be a Captain of an entire work area, or a Captain of just a particular&amp;amp;nbsp;tool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Captain serves as the main point of contact for the program area or&amp;amp;nbsp;tool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you are interested in becoming a captain, please contact the Executive Director or a member of the Shop Operations committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please review [[Shared Tools and Map|&#039;&#039;&#039;Shared Tools and Map&#039;&#039;&#039;]] for the current directory of PPM Program&amp;amp;nbsp;Areas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Committees==&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace is a volunteer-driven creative space. Everything good that happens is because a member or a committee saw the potential and took the initiative to make it&amp;amp;nbsp;happen. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Member-Driven Committees===&lt;br /&gt;
Member-driven initiatives for new programs and work areas must meet the following criteria:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Project committees that impact the way the space operates must be approved by the Executive Director and/or the Shop Operations Committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Committee must select a chair persons as the primary point of contact and accountability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. The Committee chair person will be responsible for providing reports on the status and activities of the committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Each committee is expected to communicate activities to members via Slack, signage, or the wiki. The following information should always be kept current and available for all&amp;amp;nbsp;members:&lt;br /&gt;
::☐ The name of the committee chair&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::☐ A brief statement listing the goals or tasks assigned to the&amp;amp;nbsp;committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::☐ How other members can get involved.&lt;br /&gt;
5. Committee meetings must be posted on the calendar and announced on&amp;amp;nbsp;Slack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Committees can appoint advisory members who are not members of PPM when&amp;amp;nbsp;necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Commercial Use==&lt;br /&gt;
Pikes Peak Makerspace is a great place to prototype, experiment, and develop your product ideas. When it comes to production runs, the priorities of the organization may require limiting access to the equipment for commercial ventures. The organization exists as a hackerspace and is not designed as a production&amp;amp;nbsp;shop. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Pikes Peak Makerspace is based on open source ideals and thus encourages its membership to embrace those ideals as well, however members do reserve the rights to all of their creations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Loaning of Tools &amp;amp; Equipment to the Makerspace==&lt;br /&gt;
Members can give generously to PPM by donating or lending tools or equipment for use in the space.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;When equipment is loaned, the following conditions apply:&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. All loaned equipment must be marked or labeled with the owner&#039;s name and two or more points of&amp;amp;nbsp;contact.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. The owner must contact the Shop Operations Chair so that they can record the following information:&lt;br /&gt;
::☐ Name of owner&lt;br /&gt;
::☐ Equipment being loaned&lt;br /&gt;
::☐ Serial number if available&lt;br /&gt;
::☐ Terms or conditions of the loan&lt;br /&gt;
3. As the owner, if you must be contacted for others to use your tool, you must clearly document this requirement on the tool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. If a personal item on loan requires training to be used, training sessions must be offered at least once per month or the item will be subject to removal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Equipment is loaned subject to the understanding that it is preferable for PPM to own their equipment, rather than borrow it. PPM may seek to buy equipment in order to replace loaned items, which are then returned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Loaned items may be returned at any time, by request of the owner or as determined by the Shop Operations Committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. PPM is NOT responsible for maintenance of loaned equipment, but may maintain it as determined by the Shop Operations Committee.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. PPM is NOT responsible for the damage, theft, or loss of equipment. However, efforts will be made to provide reasonably secure storage.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Prohibited Items==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Firearms===&lt;br /&gt;
PPM members are prohibited from carrying, making, or cleaning firearms inside of the space. Additionally, firearm parts, ammunition, and modifications may not be done inside the&amp;amp;nbsp;space. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Objects that may be perceived as firearms must be cleared with the Executive Director and/or the Board of&amp;amp;nbsp;Directors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Deadly Weapons===&lt;br /&gt;
Any item intended to cause physical harm or destruction is prohibited at PPM. If you feel that the item you are making is a borderline case, please seek clarification from the Board of Directors before moving forward. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Donations==&lt;br /&gt;
THIS POLICY TO BE UPDATED&lt;br /&gt;
#All donations must be approved by the committee/captain in charge of the location in which the item will be stored/used.&lt;br /&gt;
#The following items will not be accepted for donation:&lt;br /&gt;
#*CRT Monitors&lt;br /&gt;
#Financial donors may request the funds be used for a specific project or department.&lt;br /&gt;
#*Any agreement made will honor the request and allocate the money appropriately.&lt;br /&gt;
#*PPM reserves the right to return to the donor and ask for approval to reallocate the funds elsewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
#*The donor reserves the right to reject the request.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* The &#039;&#039;&#039;Optix app&#039;&#039;&#039; is the new tool for managing your membership. If you would like a quick link to get to our Optix app, use this: https://ppmakers.optixapp.com/&lt;br /&gt;
* Any guests entering the space must &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://www.pikespeakmakerspace.org/waiver-form-direct sign the liability&amp;amp;nbsp;waiver]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
NOTE: In addition to Optix, the following software is used to facilitate your&amp;amp;nbsp;membership:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Slack&#039;&#039;&#039; is the main method of communication for the makerspace. Check your membership confirmation email for a link to join!&lt;br /&gt;
* Check out [[How To Slack|&#039;&#039;&#039;How to Slack&#039;&#039;&#039;]]. If&amp;amp;nbsp;you need further help getting started with Slack, let&amp;amp;nbsp;us&amp;amp;nbsp;know!&lt;br /&gt;
* Slack is organized by #channel-topics (#general, #new-members, #wood-shop, #laser-cutter, and #job-board are a few examples of&amp;amp;nbsp;channels)&lt;br /&gt;
* Important documents can often be found in Slack channels under &amp;quot;pinned&amp;quot; files.&lt;br /&gt;
** example: Software license info and video training info may be pinned files in the relevant channel.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Parking at PPM ==&lt;br /&gt;
* Parking at PPM is free for members, guests, and visitors alike. Park on the north and south sides of the&amp;amp;nbsp;building.&lt;br /&gt;
* Additional free off-street parking during special events will often be available in the empty lot west of the&amp;amp;nbsp;building.&lt;br /&gt;
* There is no reserved parking. As a courtesy, leave close-in spots available for guests or&amp;amp;nbsp;visitors.&lt;br /&gt;
* People who do park close-in may be asked to move their vehicles if they are blocking our (2) large overhead doors or our small doors when somebody has stuff to&amp;amp;nbsp;unload.&lt;br /&gt;
* Be aware of all delivery vehicles in our lots.&lt;br /&gt;
* Do not block the alleyway in the back (southeast of the building) or the lanes along the sides of the building.&lt;br /&gt;
* Do not block the dumpster(s).&lt;br /&gt;
* There is no exterior EV charging available at this time.&lt;br /&gt;
* Electric bicycles are welcome at PPM, can be brought into the building, and can be recharged&amp;amp;nbsp;inside.&lt;br /&gt;
* Respect the parking spaces for our immediate neighbor to the east, PikeRide.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Snow removal for the parking lots is the responsibility of the property&amp;amp;nbsp;owner.&lt;br /&gt;
* If there are any issues contact our Executive Director on Slack, who will contact the property&amp;amp;nbsp;owner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Physical Space Safety==&lt;br /&gt;
Fire extinguishers, first aid kits, eye washes stations, and exit routes must always be accessible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do not obstruct direct access to any of these safety&amp;amp;nbsp;features!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Front Door Security===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Use the peep hole!&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do not answer the door unless you are confident the visitor is appropriate and you are capable of handling them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
People may come to the door to ask for money, to use your cellphone, or sell you something.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Be aware that you are responsible for your safety and the security of the building when you open the door. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Packages&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Amazon, FedEx, and UPS all use the doorbell to deliver packages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So if you hear the doorbell, please check the peephole and answer it if you are&amp;amp;nbsp;comfortable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is fine to have your supply packages delivered to the Makerspace.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Have your name added to the address label.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Look for your package near the front door.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Don&#039;t leave packages (or mail) around for long.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mail&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
USPS generally does not use the doorbell, because they have been assigned an RFID card for the PPM doors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Don&#039;t leave mail (or packages) around for long.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Reporting Injuries==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;•&#039;&#039;&#039; Report every injury, and every near miss:  &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdoOoYIllVrOIdg9Vs_QHg9csRkXtAPeBTVDu0fH0ZLCorZqw/viewform Anonymous Feedback &amp;amp; Incident Report Form]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Red Tags==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;•&#039;&#039;&#039; Use a Red Tag, which can be found in the red tag area, to designate the broken&amp;amp;nbsp;equipment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;•&#039;&#039;&#039; Additionally, report the issue in our Slack channel #red-tag-issues&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;•&#039;&#039;&#039; If a staff member or shop captain is on premises, please also tell them that you&#039;ve red tagged the equipment and/or ask them for help.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Using the Space==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===If I have a question...===&lt;br /&gt;
As a new member, you&#039;ll be learning the ropes and there is a lot to know! There is not always someone available to help, but the answer you seek is probably detailed in the resources our volunteers (members) have created just for you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;This is the preferred sequence of seeking answers and information:&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://wiki.pikespeakmakerspace.org/index.php?title=Special:Search&amp;amp;profile=all&amp;amp;search=&amp;amp;fulltext=1 Search our Wiki]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Ask members and Area Captains on Slack&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Use our [https://www.pikespeakmakerspace.org/Contact/ &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Contact Us&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&#039;] form on the PPM website&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Ask a Director&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Equipment Access===&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Shared equipment at PPM is categorized into three levels (1-3):&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[https://wiki.pikespeakmakerspace.org/index.php/File:Level_1_badge.png Level 1] - No training&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;required&#039;&#039;&#039;. PPM shared equipment that is immediately available to use by all paid PPM Members.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[https://wiki.pikespeakmakerspace.org/index.php/File:Level_2_badge.png Level 2] - Training&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;required&#039;&#039;&#039;. Equipment *buy-in* (usually just one PPM class, with a small additional fee).&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;[https://wiki.pikespeakmakerspace.org/index.php/File:Level_3_badge.png Level 3] - PPM certification required.&#039;&#039;&#039; Under supervision of a PPM Captain, or by taking a PPM certification course.&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Or, click on a badge icon on our wiki, and the&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://wiki.pikespeakmakerspace.org/index.php/MediaWiki_Tips MediaWiki] &#039;&#039;software will generate a list of our PPM wiki pages that use that&amp;amp;nbsp;icon&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;(scroll down to see &amp;quot;File&amp;amp;nbsp;usage&amp;quot;)&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before using the wood shop, metal shop, 3D printers, lasers, or other PPM owned equipment, you must certify by taking a certification course &#039;&#039;&#039;[https://www.pikespeakmakerspace.org/membership/classes/ listed on our website]&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you have previous experience with specific equipment you can be certified by an Area Deputy, but we ask that you still &amp;quot;buy-in&amp;quot; (pay for the course) to the equipment to support the  upkeep of the machines (saw sharpening, laser lens, and printer supplies are some ongoing expenses at PPM, for&amp;amp;nbsp;example).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Cleaning Up===&lt;br /&gt;
*If you notice a trash can getting full, take responsibility for emptying&amp;amp;nbsp;it.&lt;br /&gt;
*Trash bags can be found in the bathrooms.&lt;br /&gt;
*The garbage dumpster is located outside the South door.&lt;br /&gt;
*Recycling is collected in 96 gallon totes (1 of them) and are picked up every two&amp;amp;nbsp;weeks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Scrap and Trash}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Paying for Consumables===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Consumables such as wood glue, 3D print filament, blue tape, and sheet stock for the laser engravers are not free.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Guest Policy===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Guest Permissions and Liability Waiver====&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone visiting the space for any reason other than a basic tour must sign the liability waiver at [https://www.bit.ly/ppmwaiver www.bit.ly/ppmwaiver]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;This is important for all the below reasons:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
**It communicates that all guests are responsible for their own safety&lt;br /&gt;
**It makes guests consider the &amp;quot;no lifeguard on duty/ swim at your own risk&amp;quot; aspect of the place they are entering&lt;br /&gt;
**It gives us (the member signing them in) an opportunity to talk about safety with the guests&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guests must be over 18 years old to sign the liability waiver.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Guests may not operate equipment owned by Pikes Peak Makerspace.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Frequent guests are encouraged to get a membership.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Additionally, as a member, you signed our liability waiver when you created your membership.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you would like to review the waiver, visit [https://www.bit.ly/ppmwaiver www.bit.ly/ppmwaiver]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Member Storage===&lt;br /&gt;
It is ideal that you to use the space to build amazing things, no matter the size! However, it is a problem when project builds occupy valuable space in a way that prevents others from using the space. We are not a storage&amp;amp;nbsp;facility. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, please observe the following practices in regards to storing your project and&amp;amp;nbsp;tools. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
#If leaving your project overnight or for multiple nights, make sure it is occupying as little space as possible and that is easy for other members to work around!&lt;br /&gt;
#Label your project in process with your name, expected &amp;quot;return to work&amp;quot; date, and phone number or contact&amp;amp;nbsp;information!&lt;br /&gt;
#Do not, under any circumstances, leave items untouched for more than 30 days. Anything that you leave here must be picked up and used at minimum once per month or it does not belong here!&lt;br /&gt;
#Keep your items organized and easy to move.&lt;br /&gt;
#Overflowing totes are not&amp;amp;nbsp;OK!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Dedicated Spaces===&lt;br /&gt;
Dedicated Spaces are private work areas and should not be entered without&amp;amp;nbsp;permission.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Computers and Personal Devices===&lt;br /&gt;
The computer login information and Wi-Fi network credentials can be found on white boards in the space. [On the right of the FIRST AID Supply&amp;amp;nbsp;Cabinet]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Login Password: [on small laminated sign on white board just to the left of the FIRST AID Supply&amp;amp;nbsp;Cabinet]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====PPM Computer Rules====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Members are not given personal logins or passwords.&lt;br /&gt;
*Backup work on an external storage&amp;amp;nbsp;device.&lt;br /&gt;
*Do not leave any messes in any workspace (anything without a name can be tossed or relocated to lost and found).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Shared Network Drive====&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;This shared drive is visible to all members.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
:0. If you need privacy, do not use this drive.&lt;br /&gt;
:1. Files might be removed automatically after 2 months.&lt;br /&gt;
:2. Do not store files in the main folder directory.&lt;br /&gt;
:3. Keep your own backup! We are not responsible if your data becomes lost or corrupted in any way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The S:/ drive is a shared network drive available on all PPM&amp;amp;nbsp;computers.&lt;br /&gt;
* You can also access the shared network drive from devices you bring into&amp;amp;nbsp;PPM.&lt;br /&gt;
* All you need to do to enjoy it is create a folder for yourself in&amp;amp;nbsp;the&amp;amp;nbsp;drive!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Last One Out Rules==&lt;br /&gt;
After you have cleaned up and you are ready to head out, and you are the last one in the&amp;amp;nbsp;building, you are required to check each of the following:   [[File:Chiller and Exhaust Switch.jpg|thumb|225x225px|&#039;&#039;&#039;Exhaust Fan &amp;amp; Chiller Switch&#039;&#039;&#039;]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* We are tapped into and support the Colorado Springs startup&amp;amp;nbsp;community.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, EIN&amp;amp;nbsp;(Tax&amp;amp;nbsp;ID Number): 81&amp;lt;span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;-0876257&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
==Maker Definition==&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;A maker is someone who defines themselves by their ability to turn ideas into reality through creativity, innovation, and hands-on skills.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Makers are typically driven by a desire to create and solve problems, using tools, materials, and technology to bring their visions to life. They often have a passion for a particular field or hobby, such as woodworking, electronics, or crafting, and may be self-taught or have formal training in their area of expertise. Makers take pride in their ability to think outside the box and find unique solutions to challenges, often experimenting with new techniques and materials to achieve their goals. They collaborate with other makers, sharing ideas and knowledge to create something greater than what they could achieve alone. Overall, being a maker is more than just a hobby or profession - it is a mindset and a way of life that values creativity, ingenuity, and hands-on problem-solving.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PPM Mission Statement==&lt;br /&gt;
:Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) is a community of cooperative hobbyists and early-stage entrepreneurs that empowers members to turn ideas into&amp;amp;nbsp;reality. We&amp;amp;nbsp;strive to provide access to tools and resources to confidently and safely design, develop and&amp;amp;nbsp;make.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PPM Vision Statement==&lt;br /&gt;
: We exist to catalyze positive change, drive economic growth and social progress by empowering individuals to unleash their full&amp;amp;nbsp;potential.&lt;br /&gt;
: We imagine a future where Pikes Peak Makerspace is the go-to destination for &#039;&#039;&#039;*makers*&#039;&#039;&#039; in the Pikes Peak Region seeking access to resources and knowledge, enabling them to turn their concepts into&amp;amp;nbsp;reality.&lt;br /&gt;
:Through our commitment to fostering a supportive, inclusive, and collaborative community, we will continue to expand our assets and capabilities to meet the evolving needs of the&amp;amp;nbsp;members.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Official PPM Name==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Our organization&#039;s name can be shortened to PPM, but not PPMS.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;We&amp;amp;nbsp;use &amp;quot;Makerspace&amp;quot; as one&amp;amp;nbsp;word — not&amp;amp;nbsp;two.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Official PPM Logo==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Gears are a common element of many other Makerspace logos, and for us it is also a subtle hat tip to the Pikes Peak Cog&amp;amp;nbsp;Railway.&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:1_to_1_logo.png|alt=official PPM logo|frameless|200x200px]] &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==PPM Logo Usage==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Follow these simple guidelines, and always use our logo consistently:&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Animation&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Do not animate as a gear or wheel&lt;br /&gt;
* Bouncing animation as computer screen saver probably OK&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Background&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Our logo should appear on a plain background&lt;br /&gt;
* Can appear on a colored background (such as a color from a PPM Tool&amp;amp;nbsp;Area)&lt;br /&gt;
* Need clear space around our logo to avoid confusion&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Color&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Reproduce in black or &amp;quot;rich&amp;amp;nbsp;black&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* Can be white (reversed)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Design&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Do not alter our logo (number of &amp;quot;teeth&amp;quot;, wording, font, or any design&amp;amp;nbsp;element)&lt;br /&gt;
* Maintain proportion (do not scale in one direction only, do not skew at all)&lt;br /&gt;
* Do not attach the logo to other artwork or other&amp;amp;nbsp;wording&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Maintenance:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Replace damaged logos (especially&amp;amp;nbsp;signage)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Reproduction at PPM:&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Our logo can be reproduced at PPM to demonstrate our equipment/capabilities; for&amp;amp;nbsp;example:&lt;br /&gt;
3D Printers, CNC Router Table, Vinyl Cutter, Large Format Printer, Sublimation Printer, and other&amp;amp;nbsp;equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== AI Generated Content==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;New Member Orientation Quiz (Google Form)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## Our orientation quiz is written with leading questions designed to guide your learning. The answer to each question will be in our wiki or on our website, and should be pretty easy to find. By answering each question after you&#039;ve found the answer, you will demonstrate to us that you have learned the things we need our members to know. If you pass the quiz with a score of 70% or better, that will be good enough to proceed to the next step. Go take the test now, if you&#039;d like to get started!&lt;br /&gt;
## This is a link to our New Member Orientation Quiz (a google form) which will be automatically graded.&lt;br /&gt;
### &#039;&#039;&#039;FAIL:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you score below a 70%, then you need to retake the quiz.&lt;br /&gt;
### &#039;&#039;&#039;PASS:&#039;&#039;&#039; If you score above a 70%, then you will be sent an email with instructions for the next onboarding steps.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Check Your Email! (Email Inbox)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## Once you pass the quiz, you should receive a confirmation email with links for the next onboarding steps.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Sign our waiver form&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## We have a standard waiver form for members, acknowledging that you understand and agree to follow the rules and safety protocols for our makerspace. After you pass the New Member Orientation Quiz, you&#039;ll receive an automated email with a link to sign our waiver online. We can&#039;t give you a membership card until you&#039;ve signed the waiver.&lt;br /&gt;
## A link to sign the form online will be provided in the email you will receive when you pass the quiz.&lt;br /&gt;
## [https://www.pikespeakmakerspace.org/waiver-form-PDF This is a link to a sample PDF version of the waiver form.]&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Choose a membership level and sign up through our Optix app&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## We use Optix to manage many features for our members, including monthly or annual membership payments. Our [https://ppmakers.optixapp.com/signup/ Optix web widget] will allow you to select the membership level and payment cycle that you prefer. Once you have set up automatic payments and completed the sign-up process in Optix, look out for a confirmation email with links for each of the further steps.&lt;br /&gt;
## [https://ppmakers.optixapp.com/signup/ This is a link to our Optix web signup form]&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Check Your Email! (Email Inbox)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## You will receive a confirmation email that you have registered for membership.&lt;br /&gt;
## That email will provide links for the following steps.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Accept our Slack Invitation&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## Slack is the main method of communication for PPM. It makes it easy to reach out to other members, report any problems, or share what you&#039;ve been working on! It&#039;s not mandatory, but it makes communication much easier for us.&lt;br /&gt;
## Once you&#039;ve completed the sign-up process in Optix, you should receive an automated email with a direct link to join our slack workspace.  If you don’t receive that e-mail (check your spam folder) please contact us and one of our staff will help get you set up.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Schedule Access Card Pick Up (Google Form)&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## The email you receive when you sign up through Optix will also provide you with a link to a Google Form to schedule a date and time to pick up your access card.&lt;br /&gt;
# &#039;&#039;&#039;Come to the Pikes Peak Makerspace!&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
## Come to the makerspace, on the date and time you scheduled, to pick up your access card and meet some of the staff and volunteers.&lt;br /&gt;
## After this step you are officially a Pikes Peak Makerspace member.&lt;br /&gt;
## We will be glad to provide a brief tour, talk about onboarding and getting started, the makerspace in general, or answer other questions.&lt;br /&gt;

## Our orientation quiz is written with leading questions designed to guide your learning. The answer to each question will be in our wiki or on our website, and should be pretty easy to find.

=== &#039;&#039;&#039;Step-By-Step Process for Using the Vented Room&#039;&#039;&#039; ===&lt;br /&gt;
*Use the Sign In Sheet&lt;br /&gt;
*Set fan and timer&lt;br /&gt;
*Setup paper&lt;br /&gt;
*Wear PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)&lt;br /&gt;
*Put away all holding stands and materials after the final coat&lt;br /&gt;
*Absolutely no paint or finishing materials left out, ever&lt;br /&gt;
*Remove workpiece as soon as dry&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== &#039;&#039;&#039;Rules for the Vented Room&#039;&#039;&#039; ===&lt;br /&gt;
*Projects left over 36 hours will be subject to removal from the area.&lt;br /&gt;
*All hazardous chemicals, including spray paint, stains, and other approved items must be stored in the yellow hazardous chemical storage cabinet located in the Vented&amp;amp;nbsp;Room.&lt;br /&gt;
*Review the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) information of unknown products before&amp;amp;nbsp;use.&lt;br /&gt;
*Do not bring dangerous chemicals to the makerspace.&lt;br /&gt;
*Must be continuously ventilated during occupied hours.&lt;br /&gt;
*Take frequent fresh air breaks while painting.&lt;br /&gt;
*Leave painted areas if you experience eye watering, headaches, dizziness, or breathing&amp;amp;nbsp;problems.&lt;br /&gt;
*Turn on the timer and leave the door closed while in&amp;amp;nbsp;use.&lt;br /&gt;
*When done, leave timer on to continue ventilating the room properly.&lt;br /&gt;
*Use the correct PPE when you’re painting. Items such as a spray painting mask, and gloves are&amp;amp;nbsp;vital.&lt;br /&gt;
*Before you start to use your spray cans, make sure that you store them away from heat and fire. The&amp;amp;nbsp;aerosols are highly combustible, and will cause a lot of damage and potentially a lot of&amp;amp;nbsp;harm.&lt;br /&gt;
*Clean your entire area after your job is complete; including, but not limited to, tables, walls, floors, cabinets, all materials put away.&lt;br /&gt;
*Do not leave anything out long&amp;amp;nbsp;term.&lt;br /&gt;
