From the Organisers meeting - http://wiki.doesliverpool.com/DoESMeetingMinutes20151029

We have some more signs, but no COSHH forms.

@DefProc to continue with sorting the COSHH forms.

Notes from meeting 20160614 - outstanding

Rolled over to next organisers meeting.

amcewen commented 8 years ago

We've done signage and an area for one new piece of equipment (the heat press).

Need:

http://online-sign.com/ seems like a good source of ready to print signs

DoESsean commented 6 years ago

This is something which definitely needs rolling over to the new building.

@DefProc are you still happy to do the work for this, or are you going to be too engaged elsewhere for the time being? If so, we'll need to try and drum up someone else that can pick this up.

DoESsean commented 5 years ago

We still need to make headway on this. Looking for volunteers who know about COSHH things.

amcewen commented 5 years ago

Volunteers who'd be happy to read through some documents and learn about COSHH things would also be welcome :-D And I'm sure if we've any general health and safety questions that @Sean-anotherone would be able to answer things or point us at further reading/expertise.

What info do we need with each machine? It should at least be:

As a first step we can update the wiki pages for each machine, and then use the information from that to generate the signs (I'm hoping we can enlist @zarino to help with design for the signs)

:+1: Always happy to knock together some signs.

I've updated the Equipment page on the wiki to have an entry for each of the machines in the workshop. The only area I didn't check (as it had a bunch of other stuff on it from @DoESsean's rearranging of the shelves) was the electronics workbench.

Additional signs required (none of these exist at the moment, but I've edited the pages assuming that the img/risk/...png files will exist):

I've worked through all the workshop equipment which has a page at present (so not the scrollsaw, router table, sewing machines, knitting machines, new 3D printers, sander, or grinder/polisher) and made sure they've got the header info table and relevant classification and warning signs.

I wonder if it makes sense to treat the electronics workbench as a "tool", and just give it the standard header, rather than have one for each piece of equipment - given that the warning signs will be more about the equipment in general - turn on the extraction, don't leave things unattended, etc. - than any of the individual pieces of equipment...

Given we can clone the wiki as a git repo, giving a bunch of markdown files, maybe we can write a script to parse any page with the standard header table and generate the sign to go alongside the piece of equipment?

We also need to source the pictograms for the list of signs from above. @Sean-anotherone, you don't know if there's an official set of signs for that sort of thing do you?

I came across this nice ANSI sign generator (and one for generating lab door signs too)

Also found the Wikimedia collection of DIN 4844-2 safety signs, so maybe this one for no loose clothing?

amcewen commented 1 year ago

I've been experimenting with weasyprint as a way to generate the signs, it should be possible then to write a bit of code to take the wiki page file (which is in markdown if you access it via the git repository) and autogenerate the relevant sign.
