Some comments on Safety

General Safety

  • We’ve worked to make building an OSSM easy and not require expert level knowledge. With that said, only you can be responsible for your safety. If you are unsure about something, find a resource, ask the discord, or just pause for a minute before rushing into it. This is a DIY project, and everyone’s build is a bit different – so make sure you are comfortable with your setup and understand how it works!

Electrical Safety

  • 24V is generally considered a fairly safe, low voltage, but always be careful to check wiring polarity and make sure nothing conductive is near the board or power supply that could cause a short circuit.

Mechanical Safety

  • There are some pinch points in the OSSM near the rail – keep sensitive bits away from that during use!

  • Depending on your motor selection, the OSSM can generate quite a bit of force, and that can hurt if it’s not applied in the right way, especially in delicate orifices! Always be able to move away from the machine if needed, or have someone specifically responsible for your safety if using it with a partner. Everyone has their own level or risk tolerance, so make sure you understand how your setup works, and give consideration to what you would do should something go wrong.

This is an open-source, community based project. Lots of people contribute

to its success, which is a huge strength for quick development!

It also means we are not responsible for the complete safety of the design.

Play risk aware and consensually!

Oh – and keep it OSSM 😉
