[Swansea Hackspace] Medical Mask Printing

Andy I'm being civil I'm not being impolite. I've not accused anyone of 
anything. I've not been abusive. Tom, who has some medical knowledge 
just seems to have made my point. There is no point making something 
that isn't wanted.


I'm being rational. I've a lot of experience with organisations. I've 
been a voluntary director of a multimiliion pound turn over not for 
profit organisation.


As you should know Andy from the email you got from me I do want to do 
something and thought this was a good idea, but someone spotted a flaw 
and I am questioning it to determine its truth. That is all I am doing. 
We need to determine if the organisation wants this or is it just an 
unapproved idea from a junior staff member.


I'm actually not stressed today. I have been locked down for sometime 
and I'm really pleased that the government is now endorsing what I have 
done. I can now get on with several tasks that have been on my list for 
some time.

  Hospitals are bound by health and safety laws just as we are in the 
Hackspace. A nurse, who by appearances is a relatively junior person, 
cannot approve the use of new equipment any more than one of us can 
suddenly stick a lathe in the space without the directors approving it.


I have joined the whatsapp group. I don't intend to say anymore here.


Neil
