We issue are currently working on a welding area outside behind the metal workshop.

Curtains

The curtains are meant to protect the other Makers while someone is welding inside of the enclosure. Two are made of non-flammable fibreglass fabric and can be close to the welding process, a third one is transparent and should be in the back of the welder, away from the workpiece.

We want to hang the curtains from a steel cable that is held up by rods at two points and the wall another two, forming a square of about 2 × 2 m. The steel cable is much longer than currently needed.

If a future project requires more space, we should be able to add more rods and curtains rather easily!

Welding Table

Once the curtains are completed, we can bring a sturdy steel table out of the metal workshop and perhaps weld a vise to it.
