+The Wisconsin Photoreactor is for use by trained chemistry researchers and should be handled carefully.
The Wisconsin Photoreactor platform utilizes high-intensity LEDs which can cause eye damage if looked at directly.
Light-filtering safety glasses should be worn whenever the photoreactor light source is powered on.
LEDs emitting different colors will require different types of light-filtering safety glasses for protection.
Extra precuation should be taken around ultra-violet and near infra-red light sources emitting "invisible" light.
+## Assembly Instructions
+
+This repository contains detailed assembly instructions.
+Please see [wpr-assembly.pdf](./assembly-instructions/wpr-assembly.pdf)
+## Enclosure
+
+The WPR is designed around a mechanically robust 3D printed enclosure.
+Every WPR has the same base, see directory `photoreactor-base`.
+The WPR top is meant to be switched based on the reaction vessel used.
+See directory `photoreactor-tops` for our ever-growing collection of vessel types.
+
+## Electronics
+The WPR incorporates small custom circuit boards controlling the LEDs and fan.
+Please see the assembly instructions for more detailed information. \ No newline at end of file
