 Please do your part to keep the space neat. Before you leave the space clean up and put away whatever equipment and workspace you may have been using.  Projects often involve working on five or more machines, and it is easy to accidentally only clean up 4 out of 5 work areas.  To offset this, its best to leave the space just a little cleaner than you’ve found it.  A mess, left behind, depresses the other members and damages the sense of community that is the true value of the space. Please do your part to keep the space neat.
