Slack

Slack is the internal communication tool we use at the fablab. If these instructions tell you to contact someone on Slack, but you don't have access to Slack yet follow the contact info at https://northforge.ca/contact/ .

When you are given access, you will automatically be subscribed to a number of default channels. I don't know exactly which channels these are. You can also browse the list of available channels and subscribe to any that you find interesting or relevant.

Important channels:

125-general for general goings-on (stuck in the back lane? Need someone to let you in? Hosting an event?
125-broken for letting maintenance know when something is wrong
125-safety for important safety announcements and discussions

125-training for requesting training and learning about training opportunities
125-makers-requests if you want to hire a maker or take on jobs
125-announcements for important announcements
125-member-intro so you know who is becoming a new member
125-consumables to request more NF-supplied materials and supplies
125-volunteer to hear about ways you can help the fab lab and reduce your expenses
125-it-support in case something related to computers is broken
