Things I would like to do for the electronics committee / lab

A reminder from another post about the chemicals:

@Photomancer

Lots of folks will look forward to you teaching the class, the only caveat is: all the chemicals and solutions you bring with you or create you have to take and dispose of somewhere else. DMS is prohibited from disposing of anything that might be classified* as hazardous waste. So no pouring down the sinks or toilets.

Good luck, the class should be a hit. If you are already doing it, you may talk to Small Metals & Jewelry and possibly do a second class for them or copper etching. Get a twofer!

And the city, county, state, fed decides what is or isn’t. It’s weird, what I can pour down my home sanitary sewer is much less restricted than a commercial/industrial facility is, and DMS is classified as “light industrial”

and

@Photomancer

That will be for you to decide. Same way you’d do it at home I suppose.

Not being flip. One reason there are no etching and anodizing solutions at the Space is the disposal.

Some of the etchants are really pretty bland and are the same things you pitch down the drain at home. Just we can’t do it here.

Truly, I hope you do one or both classes I expect them to be well attended. Just I have an obligation to warn you. When you submit for class put note at end “All chemicals used will be taken home after use” that way review group will let it go to Calendar rather than a delay asking questions. Trying to help you succeed doing this. Not be an impediment - but protecting DMS comes first for me right now.

Hope to see it on calendar.
