Sawdust Management
Sawdust is serious business. If everyone does their part, we will have an amazing space, but if everyone leaves a little dust, it becomes a big mess quickly!

[hide]Safety First!
- SAWDUST IS DANGEROUS AS A FIRE HAZARD AND AS A RESPIRATORY IRRITANT.
- DO NOT POUR CHEMICALS INTO THE SHOP SINK OR INTO TRASH CANS.
- RAGS WITH OIL OR WOOD STAIN CAN BE A FIRE HAZARD - DO THE RIGHT THING - DO NOT PLACE THEM IN A TRASH CAN!
Guidelines
- Take your wood scraps to the dumpsters! No one wants to fight with a heavy, pointy trash bag!
- If you see a full trash can, please take it to the dumpster and replace the bag.
- If the trash cart is full, please take it to the dumpster.

Trash Bags
- Large shop trash can bags should be in cardboard boxes on the shelf in the woodworking shop near the yellow toolbox. (A pic would be really nice)
- Smaller trash can bags should be available in the bathroom in shop b behind the Audrey laser.
- Backstock of trash bags is stored in the office. If we are out of bags in the above spots, please used slack and post in #mfx-needs-attention
Trash Cart
The blue trash cart can be used to transport trash bags, wood scraps, etc. to the dumpster. If it is raining, then you can leave the bag in the trash cart - but if you CAN take it out, PLEASE do.
Dumpsters
At one time, we had recycling dumpsters, but people suck and they filled them with regular waste, so we no longer have recycling dumpsters.
