Beginning Machine Shop is a 3 session course; each session is 2 hours. Students will gain a core understanding of how to operate machine shop equipment safely and become familiar with basic techniques. Our project for this class will be learning how to make a simple part using both the lathe and mill. This class is for hobbyists, makers or anyone wanting to try something new and challenge themselves a bit in a comfortable collaborative environment.
What Not to Wear:
- Do not wear any dangling jewelry or lanyards that can get caught in machinery.
- Do not wear clothing with loose sleeves or draped or dangling elements that can get caught in machinery
- No open toe shoes (anywhere in the facility)
- Long hair and beards should be securely tied back.
- Currently face masks are recommended but not required the facility. A cotton cloth mask with ties instead of ear loops must be well secured with no dangling tie ends.
We will provide:
- Eye protection
- Ear plugs if requested
