Member Code of Conduct

1.  Make things, not rules. Don’t be the reason we have to make a rule.

2.  Thoroughly Safe. Always use proper PPE and keep the environment clean. Do not use equipment you are not trained on or comfortable operating. Inspect tools for damage before use, and never be in a rush when making.

3.  Leave it better. After putting away tool and required cleanup tasks, spend 5 minutes improving the space before you go.

4.  See something, say something. Always speak up if you see a tool being misused or someone endangering themselves/others. Report all equipment issues using red tags, Slack, Area Captains, and/or our Executive Director.

5.  Kind Human. Never miss an opportunity to be kind. Unique life experiences and points of view fuel innovation and creates an atmosphere where all Makers feel welcome and included.

If you agree to live up to these expectations, welcome to the family!
