Wear protective equipment in all Wood and Metal Shop Areas.
Wear gloves when using Isopropyl Alcohol and other cleaners.
Gloves should not be worn when using powered equipment (saws, jointers, drills, or other equipment). Leather gloves can be worn for handling materials, but not when operating machinery.

All hazardous chemicals must be stored in the yellow hazardous chemical storage cabinet located in the Vented Room.
Review the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) information of unknown products before use.
SDS information is available via this spreadsheet.
Do not bring dangerous chemicals to the makerspace.
Spray paint, stains, and other approved items must be stored in the hazardous chemical storage cabinet in the Vented Room.
Please DO NOT paint indoors.

Other Hazards
Avoid placing uncovered (extension) cords, hoses, cables, or wires across the floors of our shops.
Impairment
The use of PPM equipment requires you to be alert, attentive, and focused.
Do not use any PPM work area, or any PPM tools, if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Classes and Training
Area Captain -- Volunteers needed
To help out with the Large Format Printer, post your ideas and comments on Slack.
Our Large Format Printer does not have a Take Up Reel (TUR).
Tips
- If printer reports "Print Head Path Error 2", check the (Illustrator) file to see if it has elements that need to be trimmed to fit within the artboard.
- Leave the "Language" set to "Automatic" (on the front panel: Setup > Device setup ... > Lang > Automatic),
otherwise you may get the message "Error processing job / Flushing rest of job".
- The media profile for "Hewlett-Packard/Studio Canvas" does not include cutting canvas at the end of the job, just use a pair of scissors instead.
