Op Gorilla Warfare 1

Introduction

Op Gorilla Warfare 1 (OGW1) might well be the final massive material killing spree we are taking part of. OGW1 will be divided two rounds and in several phases described along the document and several e wil be involved in this coordinated operation. I ask the members to be flexible and as available as possible for this operation

Who's involved

Hackuarium, LIP-EPFL, MYNE, UC, Kool Tools.

Round 1:

--- IN PROGRESS ---
Glassware, consumable, frunitures

Phase 1: Recon

--- DONE ---
Nestle is willing to give us a large amount of material since a large number of their labs are closing. The material is: Glassware, 4 palettes of consumables, furniture & instruments. After my visit there, I can concur that the material is of great quality and it will boost the state of the lab to academic and industrial like levels in terms of glassware and furniture. The instruments are still to be investigated.

Phase 2: Material picking & sharing

--- IN PROGRESS --- DEADLINE 13.11.15 - 23:59
A list of material was given to me (shared on #wg-biolab on 06.11). The glassware will be shared with a priority to Hackuarium, to us, LIP-EPFL and la MYNE. I take care of this. The furniture are in large amount and only what is necessary for Hackuarium will be taken. We might as well equip the green zone of UC with it to make the kitchen. Kool Tools are also interested in some of these. Once I receive all the demands I will compile everything and send it to Nestle

Phase 3: Confirmation

--- TO BE DONE --- We wait for the confirmation once the document is sent. We plan a day for pickup.

Phase 4: Pickup

--- TO BE DONE --- Once the date is confirmed, a massive pickup will be done during 1 day. Will be needed: (depending on the material, to be confirmed)

1 to 2 drivers

1 to 2 Vans

2 to 4 helpers

Volunteers:

Yann P. Coordinator

Phase 5: Organizing, Sharing, Setting Up

--- TO BE DONE --- This phase will be done just after phase 4. Once the material is collected, and temporarily stored. It will have to be stored and put into place. That part will need a lot of people for carrying, lifting, setting up the furnitures since several work zones will be modified. See "What will change" for the details.

Round 2

--- TO BE DONE ---
Instruments, (possible glassware and furniture completion)

What will change

When I started building the lab, I used what was under hand to quickly have a first version where people could start working.
