like the vending machine idea. We had one when I worked for Powell. They had it stocked with drills, tool bits, and the like. If you broke a drill and needed a replacement you just used your badge to get a new one from the vending machine.
\¥/ I have found a few good videos posted about lathe and mill work. I queued \¥/ up a list to play them as a class and then will have demo time after. Also \¥/ I purchased a wood working book a month or so ago that is the the Perkins \¥/ room on the book shelf. It does a great job of teaching proper use and \¥/ safety. I can teach a class out of it. Give me some feedback on whats \¥/ essential and what can be taught on a case by case basis. \¥/ Also when do people want to do this? \¥/ Andrew are you responsible for making a list of members with machine room \¥/ privileges? \¥/ I feel this should be publicly posted so we can all keep an eye on who's \¥/ running what and no one can just fib and say they have been trained. Until \¥/ now we have just been riding by the seat of our pants, but with all this \¥/ new and more dangerous equipment we need to buckle down on training Certs. \¥/ We will also should implement a "Oops I broke a tool/used the last piece \¥/ of" form. That way we can keep a better eye on how much inventory we are \¥/ going through and who is breaking things so they can get better training \¥/ if they need it. What about using a vending machine to control this? Just \¥/ my input, \¥/ \¥/ Devin \¥/ \¥/ P.S. Andrew I picked up a sanding belt cleaning stick, it will be at the \¥/ space by Tuesday. \¥/ \¥/ --- On Sat, 4/6/13, Dan Swick <[email protected]> wrote: \¥/ \¥/ From: Dan Swick <[email protected]> \¥/ Subject: Re: [SH-Discuss] Equipment training \¥/ To: [email protected] \¥/ Date: Saturday, April 6, 2013, 11:29 PM \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ And for the more dangerous stuff, maybe set up a training blitz one day \¥/ every month or two with Devin? \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ -- \¥/ \¥/ Dan Swick \¥/ \¥/ [email protected] \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ On Sat, Apr 6, 2013, at 08:48 PM, a l wrote: \¥/ \¥/ We've been growing steadily both in members and equipment over the past \¥/ few months.

While reading the \¥/ article on makers alliance and think box i noticed they have computer \¥/ based training systems. we should implement something along those lines. I \¥/ Know we have discussed this before for once we get IDs or badges. I was \¥/ thinking perhaps have training cards, in business card form factor, for \¥/ groups of tool s. So you would take an online quiz for more common/less \¥/ dangerous equipment like Sanders, nail guns, and soldering irons. After \¥/ quiz completion you get the member on duty to initial the slot for that \¥/ group of tools. Equipment like the welder, drill press and lathe would be \¥/ their own in person training session each. I would like to get this \¥/ fleshed out over the next week so it can be a well thought out proposal to \¥/ be officially brought up next \¥/ week ie; vote on it in three Weeks. \¥/ Thanks for your input, \¥/ \¥/ Andrew \¥/ \¥/ _______________________________________________ \¥/ \¥/ Discuss mailing list \¥/ \¥/ [email protected] \¥/ \¥/ http://synhak.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ \¥/ -----Inline Attachment Follows----- \¥/ \¥/ _______________________________________________ \¥/ Discuss mailing list \¥/ [email protected] \¥/ http://synhak.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_______________________________________________ \¥/ Discuss mailing list \¥/ [email protected] \¥/ http://synhak.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss Dungeon Studios Prototyping www.dsprototyping.com [email protected] (330)814-6103 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://synhak.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
