Overview

HeatSync Labs has a collection of woodworking tools, but not a dedicated area specific just for woodworking. Some tools will need to be used outside if making excessive dust and debris that would be a fire hazard. As of this edit there is not a specific wood shop champion. If you have questions post on the Slack channel under woodshop.

Woodworking Safety

Always ask before using our tools for the first time. You must have a waiver filled out. If you don't know what you are doing ask for help.

These were some general safety precautions. Other safety precautions may apply to specific tools

Wear

  • Safety glasses
  • Ear protection
  • Closed toe shoes

Do not wear

  • Gloves (except to change bits)
  • Loose clothing
  • Long sleeves
  • Tie or scarf
  • Long hair that is loose (use a hat or put into a ponytail)
  • Tool is in a safe position (won't tip/fall)
  • Cut away from you, think "where are my hands and fingers going to end up?"
  • Check the people around you, and any electric cords or unsafe things that may be in the way
    • Alert others before you begin (glasses, dust, noise)
  • Adjust tools when they are turned off and unplugged
    • Be sure they are turned off and bits or blades are clear when plugging them in
