If work needs to be done after hours, the user MUST be in the company of another qualified user at all times. The table saw, band saws, EDM, joiner and drill press will not be available for general use. People who wish to use this equipment must be specially trained and approved by the Shop Facility Manager. In addition, the table saw will be kept locked. The intent here is to prevent unauthorized use, and the key system has yet to be determined.
Some ideas are a combination lock, or providing each research lab with a key.
Failure to obey these rules will result in a loss of shop privileges.
