Ship for repair? So Polyprinter won’t be doing on site maintenance anymore?

How does this apply to the Rostock?

I assume that means if the equipment needs to leave DMS for repair then two (or more) members have to transport it or it has to ship directly from DMS.

There is no support contract for the Rostock. It is ours lock, stock, and barrel. If it needs to be fixed we will be fixing it.

Or, are you asking “If a member repairing the Rostock can best perform the work elsewhere how will they be able to do that work without violating the rule?”

Nah, I had a temporary lack of reading comprehension and took the first part (‘all 3D fab machines will ship for repair…’) to mean we weren’t doing any on site repair to any printer.

If I can’t fix a PolyPrinter at the space I will let someone know that I need to take it back to the shop.

Since there is a meta-rule that all committee rules are supposed to be in the wiki (yeh, I know that’s recursive) - I’d be glad to add this rule to the 3D Fab committee page if someone would like me to do that.
