 ===== Lab Announcements =====
-/05/2024 __**\\ Winter Mega Announcement**__ \\ \\
+/10/25 \\
-There will be **no training offered from 12/20/24 through 01/06/25.** Additionally, training will be extremely limited from 12/9/24 through 12/20/24 due to limited Workshop Wizard availability.
-Elings Hall will be closed to those without swipe access from 12/20 through 01/06. During this time, there will be **intermittent DI Water and Exhaust work, preventing safe use of the fume hoods.** Please take this time for vacation, data analysis, or other activities that do not require lab use.
+**Fall Update:** Wizards are back and training is ramping up.
-**We are currently experiencing some waterjet issues.** The pinch valve that controls abrasive flow is cracked. We are working on a fix, but it may require some replacement parts. **ETA for new parts is Tuesday 12/17**
+Over the summer we installed one **Form 4 resin printer**, as well as a new wash and cure station. For those who are trained on the Form 3 printers, feel free to try the Form 4 -- the workflow is nearly identical and up to 10x faster. Once we've used most of our Form 3 consumables, we'll install another Form 4 and retire our Form 3s.
-Happy holidays and see you next year!! ⭐🌲⛄
+This year we are launching the Future Makers program - a series of field trips and workshops to inspire young students to want to make things. **The lab will be closed from 9am - 4pm on November 14** for our first field trip. Please do not plan to access the Innovation Workshop during that time.
