== Area Rules ==<br />
<ol><br />
<li>Safety first — use at minimum all required safety gear for the tool you are using. Always wear safety glasses. Worn alone, your acrylic eyeglass lenses are dangerous. Know where the closest fire extinguisher is as well as the first aid kit. And pay attention to what you are doing. For your own safety, do not work around people misusing tools. For the safety of others, don't misuse tools. It's ok to ask others for help, people are pretty friendly (but it's good etiquette to wait if they're using power tools).</li><br />
<li>Clean up after yourself — use a brush or the Shop Vac to clean up your chips and throw small cutoffs away. Set useful cutoffs aside in the lumber area if you think someone might be able to use them (but we reallllly don't want your garbage). Make sure power cords don't obstruct aisles</li><br />
<li> Check the '''Dust Collector''' [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Dust_Collector_G0638]to see if it needs emptying </li><br />
<li>Be respectful of others using this space by following [[Tidy Space Policy|TidySpace]] procedures — always fill out a Green Ticket.</li><br />
<li>Put things back when you're done — Let's try to make sure everyone can find the tool they are looking for once you are finished. This includes all power tool accessories and hand tools.</li><br />
<li>Respect all the tools — Do not '''''ever''''' put your weight behind a piece you're feeding through any power tool. If you ''ever'' see anyone doing this, it's ok to correct them. Use your hands or a push stick, if appropriate, to move your piece through — the machine will tell you how quickly it wants to work. '''Only use tools you are authorized to use.'''</li><br />
<li>If something breaks, or seems close to breaking, please unplug it, and lock it out if possible. Contact the [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/wiki/Volunteer_Positions#Woodshop_Team Woodshop Team] via Discord in the #woodshop-general channel, include a photo of the tool in question, and a brief description of the issue and what lead to it. </li><br />
<li>Make awesome things and let us know if you'd like to boast.</li><br />
</ol><br />

See: [[Volunteer Positions#Woodshop Team|Woodshop Team]]<br />
<br />
== Project Storage ==<br />
'''New tidy space policy. '''<br />
<br />
Please see [[Tidy Space Policy]] for explicit details on how to store your projects. <br />
<br />
You may store your projects for 72 hours with a Green Ticket so long as it is stored in one of the following locations: <br />
<br />
* The Pallet Rack of the South Wall<br />
* The left side of the Sheet Goods Rack (right side is for salvage) - Sheet goods only!<br />
<br />
You may leave a project to glue up/dry on a worktable for up to 3 hours so long as you leave a detailed note. <br />
<br />
If you have special storage needs, contact a member of the Woodshop Team. Accommodations may be able to be made. <br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
Come wearing appropriate clothing (closed toed shoes, no loose clothing/jewelry) and grab a set of eye protection and ear protection when you arrive. <br />
<br />
Some safety equipment is currently available: <br />
<br />
* safety glasses and goggles<br />
* gloves (including welding gloves)<br />
* ear protection<br />
* welding masks<br />
* fire extinguishers<br />
<br />
Users must use this equipment as required for each tool.<br />
<br />
If you see someone using the equipment improperly, '''wait for a safe time''' to either show them how to do it right, or ask them to stop and seek certification. Don't sneak up on people or interrupt them while they're using power tools. Notify the Area Host if anyone is abusing, damaging, or using tools inappropriately.<br />
<br />
If the smoke/CO2 detector goes off, stop what you are doing. Do not shut it off and go back to work until you take a break for at least 15 minutes to be sure there aren't any harmful fumes.<br />
<br />
== Woodworking skills ==<br />
'''Milling lumber''' To produce the quality joints needed for strong and attractive projects, the natural warping and twist of lumber must be dealt with. The typical process for producing milled lumber starts at the jointer. <br />
<ol><br />
<li> Joint a face and an edge, using the jointer fence. This will give you two surfaces that are 90 degrees to each other. <br />
<li> Then use the planer to make the unmilled face parallel and coplanar to the face milled in the first step. <br />
<li> The final edge can be produced on the table saw. Use the rip fence to clean up the final edge. <br />
</ol><br />
More techniques for milling lumber can be found in [http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/videos/episode-6-the-jointers-jumpin/?category_name=techniques this video] from Marc Spagnuolo, a woodworking podcaster of note.<br />
<br />
== Tools ==<br />
While plenty of tools are available, you probably want to put together your own toolbox/kit of things to have handy. See the [[Recommended Gear/Kit#Wood Shop|suggested list for the wood shop]].<br />
<br />
All equipment in the workshop has been tagged [[:Category:Shop Equipment]].<br />
<br />
All equipment requires certification to be used. Please see the individual tool pages for information on who can certify you to use these tools. We have a number of [[Tablesaw jigs and sleds|jigs and sleds for the table saw]], bandsaw, and planer.<br />
<br />
=== Using the tools ===<br />
If it belongs to PS:One, please be nice to the tools. If they belong to a member who is awesome enough to loan us their personal gear, make sure you treat it extra nice and also, get their permission first.<br />
<br />
Please be respectful and aware of others working in the shop at the same time you are. If you are throwing sparks, throw them away from other people. If you are walking around with hot metal, say something, so others know where you are and don't get branded. If you are going to start making a lot of noise, let other people know so they can get some ear protection, don't just deafen them.<br />
<br />
=== Sharpening tools ===<br />
Sharpening is best left to people who know what they're doing. Destroying an edge or a tool's temper will require someone else to deal with the problem, and that sucks. If you know what you're doing, you'll know what you need and can ask someone who also looks like they know what they're doing to help you find it.<br />
<br />
Sharpening power tool blades is even more best left to people who know what they're doing. Let the area host know if a power tool's blades need to be serviced.<br />
<br />
== Shop Safety Best Practices ==<br />
<!-- A volunteer member editor should put a set of eyes on making sure this makes sense, or remove it entirely. --><br />
Pumping Station: One is not responsible for making sure you operate tools safely. This wiki is edited by volunteers who ''do not speak for Pumping Station:One.'' For a primer on general shop safety best practices, take a look at [http://www.epa.gov/dfe/pubs/auto/bestpractices/bestpr.htm the EPA's recommendations] and [https://www.pratt.edu/uploads/Shop_Orientation_Manual.pdf Pratt's orientation manual]. Various A&M schools also have excellent recommendations.<br />
<br />
== Budgets ==<br />
We are working on a real time accounting of budgets and expenditures.<br />
<br />
[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1y_PDi-ZZuNAnfpsWlKM05dCU4v_T1DBXaOsmj2Wj1L8/edit 2020 Budget].<br />

<br />
== Sources for Wood ==<br />
Owl Lumber is usually the recommended place to get wood. Their store in Niles is much bigger than the one in Lombard.<br />
<br />
People have also had success buying used oak tables off their favorite marketplace and planing/milling the table top for use.<br />
<br />
== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==<br />
<br />
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and declutter the workspace - feel free to help out!<br />
<br />
* Fix rolling fire door rail (roll door to right, replace missing bolts holding rail to wall will bring that rail plumb again, test)<br />
<br />
* Straighten out door counterweight cover to left of rolling fire door (remove appx six lag bolts, take cover off, beat the shit outa it to make it square, replace it on wall).<br />
<br />
* Repair left dust collector door. (Remove stop from top rail, roll door to left to free the center trolley, tighten nuts to relevel/plumb door so that it is plumb-relative to right door, replace end stop)<br />
<br />
* Use hydraulic cement or such to reattach rolling door rails to wall in dock. There are new bolts there but existing old bolts need to be reattached to wall at right side<br />
<br />
* DONE Finish hooking up the dust collection <br />
* DONE Repair the floor on the flat sheet vertical rack (the bottom is broken) and throw away the junk and edit the ticketed items.<br />
* DONE Incorporate a rack for tall sticks of lumber (8ft. 2x4's, long rips of narrow material).<br />
* DONE Reorganize "salvage" material storage <br />
** NOW: right quarter of ply rack, <br />
*** small pieces to right of ply rack, <br />
<br />
<br />
* DONE Get the [[Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw]] station built.<br />
* DONE Build a Google Calendar for Major tool Preventive Maintenance with manufacturer recommendations for maintenance tasks<br />
* DONE Jigs and fences for the [[Rockwell Delta 20" Bandsaw]].<br />
* DONE Plumb in some air lines. Paul Van Lake anchored the line on the wall next to the ladders so maybe we can tap off of that.<br />
* Shop signs. If a member is looking for a practice project post laser or ShopBot authorization, have them make pertinent/helpful tool and warning signs. <br />
* DONE Go through the cabinet under the miter saw and clean out the junk glue and useless material.<br />
* DONE Build shelves under work benches for member projects once racks are made to store glue clamps.<br />
* DONE Design a better method to store the clamps that are in bins on the floor.<br />
* DONE Fix the cable on the [[Grizzly 6" jointer]] - the ground wire is exposed.<br />
* DONE Fix the plugs on the northwest wall. They are hanging, and it is hard sometimes to plug in the jointer without the cable falling off.<br />
* Build an enclosed cabinet for the router table to prevent dust and organize bits and tools.<br />
* DONE Add racks above sanders router and drill press<br />
* Repair replace worktables<br />
* DONE prepare vote for new equipment (SawStop, lathe, racks) TO BE DELIVERED /INSTALLED DEC. (SAW, RACKS)and jan.(lathe)<br />

If you see someone using the equipment improperly, '''wait for a safe time''' to either show them how to do it right, or ask them to stop and seek certification. Don't sneak up on people or interrupt them while they're using power tools. Notify the Area Host if anyone is abusing, damaging, or using tools inappropriately.<br />
<br />
If the smoke/CO2 detector goes off, stop what you are doing. Do not shut it off and go back to work until you take a break for at least 15 minutes to be sure there aren't any harmful fumes.<br />

'''Milling lumber''' To produce the quality joints needed for strong and attractive projects, the natural warping and twist of lumber must be dealt with. The typical process for producing milled lumber starts at the jointer. <br />
<ol><br />
<li> Joint a face and an edge, using the jointer fence. This will give you two surfaces that are 90 degrees to each other. <br />
<li> Then use the planer to make the unmilled face parallel and coplanar to the face milled in the first step. <br />
<li> The final edge can be produced on the table saw. Use the rip fence to clean up the final edge. <br />
</ol><br />
More techniques for milling lumber can be found in [http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/videos/episode-6-the-jointers-jumpin/?category_name=techniques this video] from Marc Spagnuolo, a woodworking podcaster of note.<br />
<br />
== Tools ==<br />
While plenty of tools are available, you probably want to put together your own toolbox/kit of things to have handy. See the [[Recommended Gear/Kit#Wood Shop|suggested list for the wood shop]].<br />
<br />
All equipment in the workshop has been tagged [[:Category:Shop Equipment]].<br />
<br />
All equipment requires certification to be used. Please see the individual tool pages for information on who can certify you to use these tools. We have a number of [[Tablesaw jigs and sleds|jigs and sleds for the table saw]], bandsaw, and planer.<br />
<br />
=== Using the tools ===<br />
If it belongs to PS:One, please be nice to the tools. If they belong to a member who is awesome enough to loan us their personal gear, make sure you treat it extra nice and also, get their permission first.<br />
<br />
Please be respectful and aware of others working in the shop at the same time you are. If you are throwing sparks, throw them away from other people. If you are walking around with hot metal, say something, so others know where you are and don't get branded. If you are going to start making a lot of noise, let other people know so they can get some ear protection, don't just deafen them.<br />
<br />
=== Sharpening tools ===<br />
Sharpening is best left to people who know what they're doing. Destroying an edge or a tool's temper will require someone else to deal with the problem, and that sucks. If you know what you're doing, you'll know what you need and can ask someone who also looks like they know what they're doing to help you find it.<br />
<br />
Sharpening power tool blades is even more best left to people who know what they're doing. Let the area host know if a power tool's blades need to be serviced.<br />

== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==<br />
<br />
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and declutter the workspace - feel free to help out!<br />
<br />
* Fix rolling fire door rail (roll door to right, replace missing bolts holding rail to wall will bring that rail plumb again, test)<br />
<br />
* Straighten out door counterweight cover to left of rolling fire door (remove appx six lag bolts, take cover off, beat the shit outa it to make it square, replace it on wall).<br />
<br />
* Repair left dust collector door. (Remove stop from top rail, roll door to left to free the center trolley, tighten nuts to relevel/plumb door so that it is plumb-relative to right door, replace end stop)<br />
<br />
* Use hydraulic cement or such to reattach rolling door rails to wall in dock. There are new bolts there but existing old bolts need to be reattached to wall at right side<br />
<br />
* DONE Finish hooking up the dust collection <br />
* DONE Repair the floor on the flat sheet vertical rack (the bottom is broken) and throw away the junk and edit the ticketed items.<br />
* DONE Incorporate a rack for tall sticks of lumber (8ft. 2x4's, long rips of narrow material).<br />
* DONE Reorganize "salvage" material storage <br />
** NOW: right quarter of ply rack, <br />
*** small pieces to right of ply rack, <br />
<br />
<br />
* DONE Get the [[Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw]] station built.<br />
* DONE Build a Google Calendar for Major tool Preventive Maintenance with manufacturer recommendations for maintenance tasks<br />
* DONE Jigs and fences for the [[Rockwell Delta 20" Bandsaw]].<br />
* DONE Plumb in some air lines. Paul Van Lake anchored the line on the wall next to the ladders so maybe we can tap off of that.<br />
* Shop signs. If a member is looking for a practice project post laser or ShopBot authorization, have them make pertinent/helpful tool and warning signs. <br />
* DONE Go through the cabinet under the miter saw and clean out the junk glue and useless material.<br />
* DONE Build shelves under work benches for member projects once racks are made to store glue clamps.<br />
* DONE Design a better method to store the clamps that are in bins on the floor.<br />
* DONE Fix the cable on the [[Grizzly 6" jointer]] - the ground wire is exposed.<br />
* DONE Fix the plugs on the northwest wall. They are hanging, and it is hard sometimes to plug in the jointer without the cable falling off.<br />
* Build an enclosed cabinet for the router table to prevent dust and organize bits and tools.<br />
* DONE Add racks above sanders router and drill press<br />
* Repair replace worktables<br />
* DONE prepare vote for new equipment (SawStop, lathe, racks) TO BE DELIVERED /INSTALLED DEC. (SAW, RACKS)and jan.(lathe)<br />

== Area Rules ==<br />
<ol><br />
<li>Safety first — use at minimum all required safety gear for the tool you are using. Always wear safety glasses. Worn alone, your acrylic eyeglass lenses are dangerous. Know where the closest fire extinguisher is as well as the first aid kit. And pay attention to what you are doing. For your own safety, do not work around people misusing tools. For the safety of others, don't misuse tools. It's ok to ask others for help, people are pretty friendly (but it's good etiquette to wait if they're using power tools).</li><br />
<li>Clean up after yourself — use a brush or the Shop Vac to clean up your chips and throw small cutoffs away. Set useful cutoffs aside in the lumber area if you think someone might be able to use them (but we reallllly don't want your garbage). Make sure power cords don't obstruct aisles</li><br />
<li> Check the '''Dust Collector''' [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Dust_Collector_G0638]to see if it needs emptying </li><br />
<li>Be respectful of others using this space by following [[Tidy Space Policy|TidySpace]] procedures — always fill out a Green Ticket.</li><br />
<li>Put things back when you're done — Let's try to make sure everyone can find the tool they are looking for once you are finished. This includes all power tool accessories and hand tools.</li><br />
<li>Respect all the tools — Do not '''''ever''''' put your weight behind a piece you're feeding through any power tool. If you ''ever'' see anyone doing this, it's ok to correct them. Use your hands or a push stick, if appropriate, to move your piece through — the machine will tell you how quickly it wants to work. '''Only use tools you are authorized to use.'''</li><br />
<li>If something breaks, put a note on it and contact the [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/wiki/Volunteer_Positions#Woodshop_Team Woodshop Team] via Discord, don't just leave it for the next person to find. It's unsafe and disrespectful. Be excellent to each other.</li><br />
<li>Make awesome things and let us know if you'd like to boast.</li><br />

== Project Storage ==<br />
'''New tidy space policy. '''<br />
<br />
Please see [[Tidy Space Policy]] for explicit details on how to store your projects. <br />
<br />
You may store your projects for 72 hours with a Green Ticket so long as it is stored in one of the following locations: <br />
<br />
* The Pallet Rack of the South Wall<br />
* The left side of the Sheet Goods Rack (right side is for salvage) - Sheet goods only!<br />
<br />
You may leave a project to glue up/dry on a worktable for up to 3 hours so long as you leave a detailed note. <br />
<br />
If you have special storage needs, contact a member of the Woodshop Team. Accommodations may be able to be made. <br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
Come wearing appropriate clothing (closed toed shoes, no loose clothing/jewelry) and grab a set of eye protection and ear protection when you arrive. <br />
<br />
Some safety equipment is currently available: <br />
<br />
* safety glasses and goggles<br />
* gloves (including welding gloves)<br />
* ear protection<br />
* welding masks<br />
* fire extinguishers<br />
<br />
Users must use this equipment as required for each tool.<br />

<div>The Wood Shop is one of the areas that has [[:Category:Hosted Areas|an area host here at PS:One]].{{Infobox HostedArea<br />

== Area Rules ==<br />
<ol><br />
<li>Safety first — use at minimum all required safety gear for the tool you are using. Always wear safety glasses. Worn alone, your acrylic eyeglass lenses are dangerous. Know where the closest fire extinguisher is as well as the first aid kit. And pay attention to what you are doing. For your own safety, do not work around people misusing tools. For the safety of others, don't misuse tools. It's ok to ask others for help, people are pretty friendly (but it's good etiquette to wait if they're using power tools).</li><br />
<li>Clean up after yourself — use a brush or the Shop Vac to clean up your chips and throw small cutoffs away. Set useful cutoffs aside in the lumber area if you think someone might be able to use them (but we reallllly don't want your garbage). Make sure power cords don't obstruct aisles</li><br />
<li> Check the '''Dust Collector''' [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Dust_Collector_G0638]to see if it needs emptying </li><br />
<li>Be respectful of others using this space by following [[Tidy Space Policy|TidySpace]] procedures — always fill out a Green Ticket.</li><br />
<li>Put things back when you're done — Let's try to make sure everyone can find the tool they are looking for once you are finished. This includes all power tool accessories and hand tools.</li><br />
<li>Respect all the tools — Do not '''''ever''''' put your weight behind a piece you're feeding through any power tool. If you ''ever'' see anyone doing this, it's ok to correct them. Use your hands or a push stick, if appropriate, to move your piece through — the machine will tell you how quickly it wants to work. '''Only use tools you are authorized to use.'''</li><br />
<li>If something breaks, put a note on it and contact the Woodshop Team via Discord, don't just leave it for the next person to find. It's unsafe and disrespectful. Be excellent to each other.</li><br />
<li>Make awesome things and let us know if you'd like to boast.</li><br />

Area Host: Sam Paris<br />
<br />
See: [[Volunteer Positions#Woodshop Team|Woodshop Team]]<br />
<br />
== Project Storage ==<br />
'''New tidy space policy. '''<br />
<br />
Please see [[Tidy Space Policy]] for explicit details on how to store your projects. <br />
<br />
You may store your projects for 72 hours with a Green Ticket so long as it is stored in one of the following locations: <br />
<br />
* The Pallet Rack of the South Wall<br />
* The left side of the Sheet Goods Rack (right side is for salvage) - Sheet goods only!<br />
<br />
You may leave a project to glue up/dry on a worktable for up to 3 hours so long as you leave a detailed note. <br />
<br />
If you have special storage needs, contact a member of the Woodshop Team. Accommodations may be able to be made. <br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
Come wearing appropriate clothing (closed toed shoes, no loose clothing/jewelry) and grab a set of eye protection and ear protection when you arrive. <br />
<br />
Some safety equipment is currently available: <br />
<br />
* safety glasses and goggles<br />
* gloves (including welding gloves)<br />
* ear protection<br />
* welding masks<br />
* fire extinguishers<br />
<br />
Users must use this equipment as required for each tool.<br />
<br />
If you see someone using the equipment improperly, '''wait for a safe time''' to either show them how to do it right, or ask them to stop and seek certification. Don't sneak up on people or interrupt them while they're using power tools. Notify the Area Host if anyone is abusing, damaging, or using tools inappropriately.<br />
<br />
If the smoke/CO2 detector goes off, stop what you are doing. Do not shut it off and go back to work until you take a break for at least 15 minutes to be sure there aren't any harmful fumes.<br />
<br />
== Woodworking skills ==<br />
'''Milling lumber''' To produce the quality joints needed for strong and attractive projects, the natural warping and twist of lumber must be dealt with. The typical process for producing milled lumber starts at the jointer. <br />
<ol><br />
<li> Joint a face and an edge, using the jointer fence. This will give you two surfaces that are 90 degrees to each other. <br />
<li> Then use the planer to make the unmilled face parallel and coplanar to the face milled in the first step. <br />
<li> The final edge can be produced on the table saw. Use the rip fence to clean up the final edge. <br />
</ol><br />
More techniques for milling lumber can be found in [http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/videos/episode-6-the-jointers-jumpin/?category_name=techniques this video] from Marc Spagnuolo, a woodworking podcaster of note.<br />
<br />
== Tools ==<br />
While plenty of tools are available, you probably want to put together your own toolbox/kit of things to have handy. See the [[Recommended Gear/Kit#Wood Shop|suggested list for the wood shop]].<br />
<br />
All equipment in the workshop has been tagged [[:Category:Shop Equipment]].<br />
<br />
All equipment requires certification to be used. Please see the individual tool pages for information on who can certify you to use these tools. We have a number of [[Tablesaw jigs and sleds|jigs and sleds for the table saw]], bandsaw, and planer.<br />
<br />
=== Using the tools ===<br />
If it belongs to PS:One, please be nice to the tools. If they belong to a member who is awesome enough to loan us their personal gear, make sure you treat it extra nice and also, get their permission first.<br />
<br />
Please be respectful and aware of others working in the shop at the same time you are. If you are throwing sparks, throw them away from other people. If you are walking around with hot metal, say something, so others know where you are and don't get branded. If you are going to start making a lot of noise, let other people know so they can get some ear protection, don't just deafen them.<br />
<br />
=== Sharpening tools ===<br />
Sharpening is best left to people who know what they're doing. Destroying an edge or a tool's temper will require someone else to deal with the problem, and that sucks. If you know what you're doing, you'll know what you need and can ask someone who also looks like they know what they're doing to help you find it.<br />
<br />
Sharpening power tool blades is even more best left to people who know what they're doing. Let the area host know if a power tool's blades need to be serviced.<br />
<br />
== Shop Safety Best Practices ==<br />
<!-- A volunteer member editor should put a set of eyes on making sure this makes sense, or remove it entirely. --><br />
Pumping Station: One is not responsible for making sure you operate tools safely. This wiki is edited by volunteers who ''do not speak for Pumping Station:One.'' For a primer on general shop safety best practices, take a look at [http://www.epa.gov/dfe/pubs/auto/bestpractices/bestpr.htm the EPA's recommendations] and [https://www.pratt.edu/uploads/Shop_Orientation_Manual.pdf Pratt's orientation manual]. Various A&M schools also have excellent recommendations.<br />
<br />
== Budgets ==<br />
We are working on a real time accounting of budgets and expenditures.<br />

== Sources for Wood ==<br />
Owl Lumber is usually the recommended place to get wood. Their store in Niles is much bigger than the one in Lombard.<br />
<br />
People have also had success buying used oak tables off their favorite marketplace and planing/milling the table top for use.<br />
<br />
== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==<br />
<br />
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and declutter the workspace - feel free to help out!<br />
<br />

<li>Respect all the tools — Do not '''''ever''''' put your weight behind a piece you're feeding through any power tool. If you ''ever'' see anyone doing this, it's ok to correct them.

== Project Storage ==<br />
'''New tidy space policy. '''<br />
<br />
Please see [[Tidy Space Policy]] for explicit details on how to store your projects. <br />
<br />
You may store your projects for 72 hours with a Green Ticket so long as it is stored in one of the following locations: <br />
<br />
* The Pallet Rack of the South Wall<br />
* The left side of the Sheet Goods Rack (right side is for salvage) - Sheet goods only!<br />
<br />
You may leave a project to glue up/dry on a worktable for up to 3 hours so long as you leave a detailed note. <br />
<br />
If you have special storage needs, contact a member of the Woodshop Team. Accommodations may be able to be made. <br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
Come wearing appropriate clothing (closed toed shoes, no loose clothing/jewelry) and grab a set of eye protection and ear protection when you arrive. <br />
<br />
Some safety equipment is currently available: <br />
<br />
* safety glasses and goggles<br />
* gloves (including welding gloves)<br />
* ear protection<br />
* welding masks<br />
* fire extinguishers<br />
<br />
Users must use this equipment as required for each tool.<br />
<br />
If you see someone using the equipment improperly, '''wait for a safe time''' to either show them how to do it right, or ask them to stop and seek certification. Don't sneak up on people or interrupt them while they're using power tools. Notify the Area Host if anyone is abusing, damaging, or using tools inappropriately.<br />
<br />
If the smoke/CO2 detector goes off, stop what you are doing. Do not shut it off and go back to work until you take a break for at least 15 minutes to be sure there aren't any harmful fumes.<br />
<br />
== Woodworking skills ==<br />
'''Milling lumber''' To produce the quality joints needed for strong and attractive projects, the natural warping and twist of lumber must be dealt with. The typical process for producing milled lumber starts at the jointer. <br />
<ol><br />
<li> Joint a face and an edge, using the jointer fence. This will give you two surfaces that are 90 degrees to each other. <br />
<li> Then use the planer to make the unmilled face parallel and coplanar to the face milled in the first step. <br />
<li> The final edge can be produced on the table saw. Use the rip fence to clean up the final edge. <br />
</ol><br />
More techniques for milling lumber can be found in [http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/videos/episode-6-the-jointers-jumpin/?category_name=techniques this video] from Marc Spagnuolo, a woodworking podcaster of note.<br />
<br />
== Tools ==<br />
While plenty of tools are available, you probably want to put together your own toolbox/kit of things to have handy. See the [[Recommended Gear/Kit#Wood Shop|suggested list for the wood shop]].<br />
<br />
All equipment in the workshop has been tagged [[:Category:Shop Equipment]].<br />
<br />
All equipment requires certification to be used. Please see the individual tool pages for information on who can certify you to use these tools. We have a number of [[Tablesaw jigs and sleds|jigs and sleds for the table saw]], bandsaw, and planer.<br />
<br />
=== Using the tools ===<br />
If it belongs to PS:One, please be nice to the tools. If they belong to a member who is awesome enough to loan us their personal gear, make sure you treat it extra nice and also, get their permission first.<br />
<br />
Please be respectful and aware of others working in the shop at the same time you are. If you are throwing sparks, throw them away from other people. If you are walking around with hot metal, say something, so others know where you are and don't get branded. If you are going to start making a lot of noise, let other people know so they can get some ear protection, don't just deafen them.<br />
<br />
=== Sharpening tools ===<br />
Sharpening is best left to people who know what they're doing. Destroying an edge or a tool's temper will require someone else to deal with the problem, and that sucks. If you know what you're doing, you'll know what you need and can ask someone who also looks like they know what they're doing to help you find it.<br />
<br />
Sharpening power tool blades is even more best left to people who know what they're doing. Let the area host know if a power tool's blades need to be serviced.<br />
<br />
== Shop Safety Best Practices ==<br />
<!-- A volunteer member editor should put a set of eyes on making sure this makes sense, or remove it entirely. --><br />
Pumping Station: One is not responsible for making sure you operate tools safely. This wiki is edited by volunteers who ''do not speak for Pumping Station:One.'' For a primer on general shop safety best practices, take a look at [http://www.epa.gov/dfe/pubs/auto/bestpractices/bestpr.htm the EPA's recommendations] and [https://www.pratt.edu/uploads/Shop_Orientation_Manual.pdf Pratt's orientation manual]. Various A&M schools also have excellent recommendations.<br />
<br />
== Budgets ==<br />
We are working on a real time accounting of budgets and expenditures.<br />

== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==<br />
<br />
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and declutter the workspace - feel free to help out!<br />
<br />
* Fix rolling fire door rail (roll door to right, replace missing bolts holding rail to wall will bring that rail plumb again, test)<br />
<br />
* Straighten out door counterweight cover to left of rolling fire door (remove appx six lag bolts, take cover off, beat the shit outa it to make it square, replace it on wall).<br />
<br />
* Repair left dust collector door. (Remove stop from top rail, roll door to left to free the center trolley, tighten nuts to relevel/plumb door so that it is plumb-relative to right door, replace end stop)<br />
<br />
* Use hydraulic cement or such to reattach rolling door rails to wall in dock. There are new bolts there but existing old bolts need to be reattached to wall at right side<br />
<br />
* DONE Finish hooking up the dust collection <br />
* DONE Repair the floor on the flat sheet vertical rack (the bottom is broken) and throw away the junk and edit the ticketed items.<br />
* DONE Incorporate a rack for tall sticks of lumber (8ft. 2x4's, long rips of narrow material).<br />
* DONE Reorganize "salvage" material storage <br />
** NOW: right quarter of ply rack, <br />
*** small pieces to right of ply rack, <br />
<br />
<br />
* DONE Get the [[Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw]] station built.<br />
* DONE Build a Google Calendar for Major tool Preventive Maintenance with manufacturer recommendations for maintenance tasks<br />
* DONE Jigs and fences for the [[Rockwell Delta 20" Bandsaw]].<br />
* DONE Plumb in some air lines. Paul Van Lake anchored the line on the wall next to the ladders so maybe we can tap off of that.<br />
* Shop signs. If a member is looking for a practice project post laser or ShopBot authorization, have them make pertinent/helpful tool and warning signs. <br />
* DONE Go through the cabinet under the miter saw and clean out the junk glue and useless material.<br />
* DONE Build shelves under work benches for member projects once racks are made to store glue clamps.<br />
* DONE Design a better method to store the clamps that are in bins on the floor.<br />
* DONE Fix the cable on the [[Grizzly 6" jointer]] - the ground wire is exposed.<br />
* DONE Fix the plugs on the northwest wall. They are hanging, and it is hard sometimes to plug in the jointer without the cable falling off.<br />
* Build an enclosed cabinet for the router table to prevent dust and organize bits and tools.<br />
* DONE Add racks above sanders router and drill press<br />
* Repair replace worktables<br />
* DONE prepare vote for new equipment (SawStop, lathe, racks) TO BE DELIVERED /INSTALLED DEC. (SAW, RACKS)and jan.(lathe)<br />

<li> Then use the planer to make the unmilled face parallel and coplanar to the face milled in the first step. <br />
<li> The final edge can be produced on the table saw. Use the rip fence to clean up the final edge. <br />

<br />
== Tools ==<br />
While plenty of tools are available, you probably want to put together your own toolbox/kit of things to have handy. See the [[Recommended Gear/Kit#Wood Shop|suggested list for the wood shop]].<br />
<br />
All equipment in the workshop has been tagged [[:Category:Shop Equipment]].<br />
<br />
All equipment requires certification to be used. Please see the individual tool pages for information on who can certify you to use these tools. We have a number of [[Tablesaw jigs and sleds|jigs and sleds for the table saw]], bandsaw, and planer.<br />
<br />
=== Using the tools ===<br />
If it belongs to PS:One, please be nice to the tools. If they belong to a member who is awesome enough to loan us their personal gear, make sure you treat it extra nice and also, get their permission first.<br />
<br />
Please be respectful and aware of others working in the shop at the same time you are. If you are throwing sparks, throw them away from other people. If you are walking around with hot metal, say something, so others know where you are and don't get branded. If you are going to start making a lot of noise, let other people know so they can get some ear protection, don't just deafen them.<br />
<br />
=== Sharpening tools ===<br />
Sharpening is best left to people who know what they're doing. Destroying an edge or a tool's temper will require someone else to deal with the problem, and that sucks. If you know what you're doing, you'll know what you need and can ask someone who also looks like they know what they're doing to help you find it.<br />
<br />
Sharpening power tool blades is even more best left to people who know what they're doing. Let the area host know if a power tool's blades need to be serviced.<br />
<br />

== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==<br />
<br />
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and declutter the workspace - feel free to help out!<br />
<br />
* Fix rolling fire door rail (roll door to right, replace missing bolts holding rail to wall will bring that rail plumb again, test)<br />
<br />
* Straighten out door counterweight cover to left of rolling fire door (remove appx six lag bolts, take cover off, beat the shit outa it to make it square, replace it on wall).<br />
<br />
* Repair left dust collector door. (Remove stop from top rail, roll door to left to free the center trolley, tighten nuts to relevel/plumb door so that it is plumb-relative to right door, replace end stop)<br />
<br />
* Use hydraulic cement or such to reattach rolling door rails to wall in dock. There are new bolts there but existing old bolts need to be reattached to wall at right side<br />
<br />
* DONE Finish hooking up the dust collection <br />
* DONE Repair the floor on the flat sheet vertical rack (the bottom is broken) and throw away the junk and edit the ticketed items.<br />
* DONE Incorporate a rack for tall sticks of lumber (8ft. 2x4's, long rips of narrow material).<br />
* DONE Reorganize "salvage" material storage <br />
** NOW: right quarter of ply rack, <br />
*** small pieces to right of ply rack, <br />
<br />
<br />
* DONE Get the [[Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw]] station built.<br />
* DONE Build a Google Calendar for Major tool Preventive Maintenance with manufacturer recommendations for maintenance tasks<br />
* DONE Jigs and fences for the [[Rockwell Delta 20" Bandsaw]].<br />
* DONE Plumb in some air lines. Paul Van Lake anchored the line on the wall next to the ladders so maybe we can tap off of that.<br />
* Shop signs. If a member is looking for a practice project post laser or ShopBot authorization, have them make pertinent/helpful tool and warning signs. <br />
* DONE Go through the cabinet under the miter saw and clean out the junk glue and useless material.<br />
* DONE Build shelves under work benches for member projects once racks are made to store glue clamps.<br />
* DONE Design a better method to store the clamps that are in bins on the floor.<br />
* DONE Fix the cable on the [[Grizzly 6" jointer]] - the ground wire is exposed.<br />
* DONE Fix the plugs on the northwest wall. They are hanging, and it is hard sometimes to plug in the jointer without the cable falling off.<br />
* Build an enclosed cabinet for the router table to prevent dust and organize bits and tools.<br />
* DONE Add racks above sanders router and drill press<br />
* Repair replace worktables<br />
* DONE prepare vote for new equipment (SawStop, lathe, racks) TO BE DELIVERED /INSTALLED DEC. (SAW, RACKS)and jan.(lathe)<br />

== Area Rules ==<br />
<ol><br />
<li>Safety first — use at minimum all required safety gear for the tool you are using. Always wear safety glasses. Worn alone, your acrylic eyeglass lenses are dangerous. Know where the closest fire extinguisher is as well as the first aid kit. And pay attention to what you are doing. For your own safety, do not work around people misusing tools. For the safety of others, don't misuse tools. It's ok to ask others for help, people are pretty friendly (but it's good etiquette to wait if they're using power tools).</li><br />
<li>Clean up after yourself — use a brush or the Shop Vac to clean up your chips and throw small cutoffs away. Set useful cutoffs aside in the lumber area if you think someone might be able to use them (but we reallllly don't want your garbage). Make sure power cords don't obstruct aisles</li><br />
<li> Check the '''Dust Collector''' [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Dust_Collector_G0638]to see if it needs emptying </li><br />
<li>Be respectful of others using this space by following [[Tidy Space Policy|TidySpace]] procedures — always fill out a Green Ticket.</li><br />
<li>Put things back when you're done — Let's try to make sure everyone can find the tool they are looking for once you are finished. This includes all power tool accessories and hand tools.</li><br />
<li>Respect all the tools — Do not '''''ever''''' put your weight behind a piece you're feeding through any power tool. If you ''ever'' see anyone doing this, it's ok to correct them. Use your hands or a push stick, if appropriate, to move your piece through — the machine will tell you how quickly it wants to work. '''Only use tools you are authorized to use.'''</li><br />
<li>If something breaks, put a note on it and contact the Woodshop Team, don't just leave it for the next person to find. It's unsafe and disrespectful. Be excellent to each other.</li><br />
<li>Make awesome things and let us know if you'd like to boast.</li><br />

== Project Storage ==<br />
'''New tidy space policy. '''<br />
<br />
Please see [[Tidy Space Policy]] for details on how to store your projects. The shelves in the pallet racking on the south wall, the left half of the sheet good rack on the north wall, and the space behind the miter saw cabinet are Member Project Temporary Storage. You can store items there for up to 3 days with a green ticket, or longer with permission from a member of the Wood shop Volunteer Team. You can leave projects on tables for up to 3 hours (with a detailed note) for glue/finish drying, etc. <br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
Come wearing appropriate clothing (closed toed shoes, no loose clothing/jewelry) and grab a set of eye protection and ear protection when you arrive. <br />
<br />
Some safety equipment is currently available: <br />
<br />
* safety glasses and goggles<br />
* gloves (including welding gloves)<br />
* ear protection<br />
* welding masks<br />
* fire extinguishers<br />
<br />
Users must use this equipment as required for each tool.<br />
<br />
If you see someone using the equipment improperly, '''wait for a safe time''' to either show them how to do it right, or ask them to stop and seek certification. Don't sneak up on people or interrupt them while they're using power tools. Notify the Area Host if anyone is abusing, damaging, or using tools inappropriately.<br />
<br />
If the smoke/CO2 detector goes off, stop what you are doing. Do not shut it off and go back to work until you take a break for at least 15 minutes to be sure there aren't any harmful fumes.<br />
<br />
== Woodworking skills ==<br />
'''Milling lumber''' To produce the quality joints needed for strong and attractive projects, the natural warping and twist of lumber must be dealt with. The typical process for producing milled lumber starts at the jointer. <br />

== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==<br />
<br />
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and declutter the workspace - feel free to help out!<br />
<br />
* Fix rolling fire door rail (roll door to right, replace missing bolts holding rail to wall will bring that rail plumb again, test)<br />
<br />
* Straighten out door counterweight cover to left of rolling fire door (remove appx six lag bolts, take cover off, beat the shit outa it to make it square, replace it on wall).<br />
<br />
* Repair left dust collector door. (Remove stop from top rail, roll door to left to free the center trolley, tighten nuts to relevel/plumb door so that it is plumb-relative to right door, replace end stop)<br />
<br />
* Use hydraulic cement or such to reattach rolling door rails to wall in dock. There are new bolts there but existing old bolts need to be reattached to wall at right side<br />
<br />
* DONE Finish hooking up the dust collection <br />
* DONE Repair the floor on the flat sheet vertical rack (the bottom is broken) and throw away the junk and edit the ticketed items.<br />
* DONE Incorporate a rack for tall sticks of lumber (8ft. 2x4's, long rips of narrow material).<br />
* DONE Reorganize "salvage" material storage <br />
** NOW: right quarter of ply rack, <br />
*** small pieces to right of ply rack, <br />
<br />
<br />
* DONE Get the [[Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw]] station built.<br />
* DONE Build a Google Calendar for Major tool Preventive Maintenance with manufacturer recommendations for maintenance tasks<br />
* DONE Jigs and fences for the [[Rockwell Delta 20" Bandsaw]].<br />
* DONE Plumb in some air lines. Paul Van Lake anchored the line on the wall next to the ladders so maybe we can tap off of that.<br />
* Shop signs. If a member is looking for a practice project post laser or ShopBot authorization, have them make pertinent/helpful tool and warning signs. <br />
* DONE Go through the cabinet under the miter saw and clean out the junk glue and useless material.<br />
* DONE Build shelves under work benches for member projects once racks are made to store glue clamps.<br />
* DONE Design a better method to store the clamps that are in bins on the floor.<br />
* DONE Fix the cable on the [[Grizzly 6" jointer]] - the ground wire is exposed.<br />
* DONE Fix the plugs on the northwest wall. They are hanging, and it is hard sometimes to plug in the jointer without the cable falling off.<br />
* Build an enclosed cabinet for the router table to prevent dust and organize bits and tools.<br />
* DONE Add racks above sanders router and drill press<br />
* Repair replace worktables<br />
* DONE prepare vote for new equipment (SawStop, lathe, racks) TO BE DELIVERED /INSTALLED DEC. (SAW, RACKS)and jan.(lathe)<br />

<div>The Wood Shop is one of the areas that has [[:Category:Hosted Areas|an area host here at PS:One]].{{Infobox HostedArea<br />

== Area Rules ==<br />
<ol><br />
<li>Safety first — use at minimum all required safety gear for the tool you are using. Always wear safety glasses. Worn alone, your acrylic eyeglass lenses are dangerous. Know where the closest fire extinguisher is as well as the first aid kit. And pay attention to what you are doing. For your own safety, do not work around people misusing tools. For the safety of others, don't misuse tools. It's ok to ask others for help, people are pretty friendly (but it's good etiquette to wait if they're using power tools).</li><br />
<li>Clean up after yourself — use a brush or the Shop Vac to clean up your chips and throw small cutoffs away. Set useful cutoffs aside in the lumber area if you think someone might be able to use them (but we reallllly don't want your garbage). Make sure power cords don't obstruct aisles</li><br />
<li> Check the '''Dust Collector''' [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Dust_Collector_G0638]to see if it needs emptying </li><br />
<li>Be respectful of others using this space by following [[Tidy Space Policy|TidySpace]] procedures — always fill out a Green Ticket.</li><br />
<li>Put things back when you're done — Let's try to make sure everyone can find the tool they are looking for once you are finished. This includes all power tool accessories and hand tools.</li><br />
<li>Respect all the tools — Do not '''''ever''''' put your weight behind a piece you're feeding through any power tool. If you ''ever'' see anyone doing this, it's ok to correct them. Use your hands or a push stick, if appropriate, to move your piece through — the machine will tell you how quickly it wants to work. '''Only use tools you are authorized to use.'''</li><br />
<li>If something breaks, put a note on it and contact the Woodshop Team, don't just leave it for the next person to find. It's unsafe and disrespectful. Be excellent to each other.</li><br />
<li>Make awesome things and let us know if you'd like to boast.</li><br />
</ol><br />

== Project Storage ==<br />
'''New tidy space policy. '''<br />
<br />
Please see [[Tidy Space Policy]] for details on how to store your projects. The shelves in the pallet racking on the south wall, the left half of the sheet good rack on the north wall, and the space behind the miter saw cabinet are Member Project Temporary Storage. You can store items there for up to 3 days with a green ticket, or longer with permission from a member of the Wood shop Volunteer Team. You can leave projects on tables for up to 3 hours (with a detailed note) for glue/finish drying, etc. <br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
Come wearing appropriate clothing (closed toed shoes, no loose clothing/jewelry) and grab a set of eye protection and ear protection when you arrive. <br />
<br />
Some safety equipment is currently available: <br />
<br />
* safety glasses and goggles<br />
* gloves (including welding gloves)<br />
* ear protection<br />
* welding masks<br />
* fire extinguishers<br />
<br />
Users must use this equipment as required for each tool.<br />
<br />
If you see someone using the equipment improperly, '''wait for a safe time''' to either show them how to do it right, or ask them to stop and seek certification. Don't sneak up on people or interrupt them while they're using power tools. Notify the Area Host if anyone is abusing, damaging, or using tools inappropriately.<br />
<br />
If the smoke/CO2 detector goes off, stop what you are doing. Do not shut it off and go back to work until you take a break for at least 15 minutes to be sure there aren't any harmful fumes.<br />
<br />
== Woodworking skills ==<br />
'''Milling lumber''' To produce the quality joints needed for strong and attractive projects, the natural warping and twist of lumber must be dealt with. The typical process for producing milled lumber starts at the jointer. <br />
<ol><br />
<li> Joint a face and an edge, using the jointer fence. This will give you two surfaces that are 90 degrees to each other. <br />
<li> Then use the planer to make the unmilled face parallel and coplanar to the face milled in the first step. <br />
<li> The final edge can be produced on the table saw. Use the rip fence to clean up the final edge. <br />
</ol><br />
More techniques for milling lumber can be found in [http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/videos/episode-6-the-jointers-jumpin/?category_name=techniques this video] from Marc Spagnuolo, a woodworking podcaster of note.<br />
<br />
== Tools ==<br />
While plenty of tools are available, you probably want to put together your own toolbox/kit of things to have handy. See the [[Recommended Gear/Kit#Wood Shop|suggested list for the wood shop]].<br />
<br />
All equipment in the workshop has been tagged [[:Category:Shop Equipment]].<br />
<br />
All equipment requires certification to be used. Please see the individual tool pages for information on who can certify you to use these tools. We have a number of [[Tablesaw jigs and sleds|jigs and sleds for the table saw]], bandsaw, and planer.<br />
<br />
=== Using the tools ===<br />
If it belongs to PS:One, please be nice to the tools. If they belong to a member who is awesome enough to loan us their personal gear, make sure you treat it extra nice and also, get their permission first.<br />
<br />
Please be respectful and aware of others working in the shop at the same time you are. If you are throwing sparks, throw them away from other people. If you are walking around with hot metal, say something, so others know where you are and don't get branded. If you are going to start making a lot of noise, let other people know so they can get some ear protection, don't just deafen them.<br />
<br />
=== Sharpening tools ===<br />
Sharpening is best left to people who know what they're doing. Destroying an edge or a tool's temper will require someone else to deal with the problem, and that sucks. If you know what you're doing, you'll know what you need and can ask someone who also looks like they know what they're doing to help you find it.<br />
<br />
Sharpening power tool blades is even more best left to people who know what they're doing. Let the area host know if a power tool's blades need to be serviced.<br />
<br />
== Shop Safety Best Practices ==<br />
<!-- A volunteer member editor should put a set of eyes on making sure this makes sense, or remove it entirely. --><br />
Pumping Station: One is not responsible for making sure you operate tools safely. This wiki is edited by volunteers who ''do not speak for Pumping Station:One.'' For a primer on general shop safety best practices, take a look at [http://www.epa.gov/dfe/pubs/auto/bestpractices/bestpr.htm the EPA's recommendations] and [https://www.pratt.edu/uploads/Shop_Orientation_Manual.pdf Pratt's orientation manual]. Various A&M schools also have excellent recommendations.<br />
<br />
== Budgets ==<br />
We are working on a real time accounting of budgets and expenditures.<br />

== Sources for Wood ==<br />
Owl Lumber is usually the recommended place to get wood. Their store in Niles is much bigger than the one in Lombard.<br />
<br />
People have also had success buying used oak tables off their favorite marketplace and planing/milling the table top for use.<br />

Know where the closest fire extinguisher is as well as the first aid kit. And pay attention to what you are doing. For your own safety, do not work around people misusing tools. For the safety of others, don't misuse tools. It's ok to ask others for help, people are pretty friendly (but it's good etiquette to wait if they're using power tools).</li><br />
<li>Clean up after yourself — use a brush or the Shop Vac to clean up your chips and throw small cutoffs away. Set useful cutoffs aside in the lumber area if you think someone might be able to use them (but we reallllly don't want your garbage). Make sure power cords don't obstruct aisles</li><br />
<li> Check the '''Dust Collector''' [https://wiki.pumpingstationone.org/Dust_Collector_G0638]to see if it needs emptying </li><br />
<li>Be respectful of others using this space by following [[Tidy Space Policy|TidySpace]] procedures — always fill out a Green Ticket.</li><br />
<li>Put things back when you're done — Let's try to make sure everyone can find the tool they are looking for once you are finished. This includes all power tool accessories and hand tools.</li><br />
<li>Respect all the tools — Do not '''''ever''''' put your weight behind a piece you're feeding through any power tool. If you ''ever'' see anyone doing this, it's ok to correct them. Use your hands or a push stick, if appropriate, to move your piece through — the machine will tell you how quickly it wants to work. '''Only use tools you are authorized to use.'''</li><br />
<li>If something breaks, put a note on it and contact the Woodshop Team, don't just leave it for the next person to find. It's unsafe and disrespectful. Be excellent to each other.</li><br />
<li>Make awesome things and let us know if you'd like to boast.</li><br />

=== Project Storage ===<br />
'''New tidy space policy. '''<br />
<br />
Please see [[Tidy Space Policy]] for details on how to store your projects. The shelves in the pallet racking on the south wall, the left half of the sheet good rack on the north wall, and the space behind the miter saw cabinet are Member Project Temporary Storage. You can store items there for up to 3 days with a green ticket, or longer with permission from a member of the Wood shop Volunteer Team. You can leave projects on tables for up to 3 hours (with a detailed note) for glue/finish drying, etc. <br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
Come wearing appropriate clothing (closed toed shoes, no loose clothing/jewelry) and grab a set of eye protection and ear protection when you arrive. <br />
<br />
Some safety equipment is currently available: <br />
<br />
* safety glasses and goggles<br />
* gloves (including welding gloves)<br />
* ear protection<br />
* welding masks<br />
* fire extinguishers<br />
<br />
Users must use this equipment as required for each tool.<br />
<br />
If you see someone using the equipment improperly, '''wait for a safe time''' to either show them how to do it right, or ask them to stop and seek certification. Don't sneak up on people or interrupt them while they're using power tools. Notify the Area Host if anyone is abusing, damaging, or using tools inappropriately.<br />
<br />
If the smoke/CO2 detector goes off, stop what you are doing. Do not shut it off and go back to work until you take a break for at least 15 minutes to be sure there aren't any harmful fumes.<br />
<br />
== Woodworking skills ==<br />
'''Milling lumber''' To produce the quality joints needed for strong and attractive projects, the natural warping and twist of lumber must be dealt with. The typical process for producing milled lumber starts at the jointer. <br />
<ol><br />
<li> Joint a face and an edge, using the jointer fence. This will give you two surfaces that are 90 degrees to each other. <br />
<li> Then use the planer to make the unmilled face parallel and coplanar to the face milled in the first step. <br />
<li> The final edge can be produced on the table saw. Use the rip fence to clean up the final edge. <br />
</ol><br />
More techniques for milling lumber can be found in [http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/videos/episode-6-the-jointers-jumpin/?category_name=techniques this video] from Marc Spagnuolo, a woodworking podcaster of note.<br />
<br />
== Tools ==<br />
While plenty of tools are available, you probably want to put together your own toolbox/kit of things to have handy. See the [[Recommended Gear/Kit#Wood Shop|suggested list for the wood shop]].<br />
<br />
All equipment in the workshop has been tagged [[:Category:Shop Equipment]].<br />
<br />
All equipment requires certification to be used. Please see the individual tool pages for information on who can certify you to use these tools. We have a number of [[Tablesaw jigs and sleds|jigs and sleds for the table saw]], bandsaw, and planer.<br />
<br />
=== Using the tools ===<br />
If it belongs to PS:One, please be nice to the tools. If they belong to a member who is awesome enough to loan us their personal gear, make sure you treat it extra nice and also, get their permission first.<br />
<br />
Please be respectful and aware of others working in the shop at the same time you are. If you are throwing sparks, throw them away from other people. If you are walking around with hot metal, say something, so others know where you are and don't get branded. If you are going to start making a lot of noise, let other people know so they can get some ear protection, don't just deafen them.<br />
<br />
=== Sharpening tools ===<br />
Sharpening is best left to people who know what they're doing. Destroying an edge or a tool's temper will require someone else to deal with the problem, and that sucks. If you know what you're doing, you'll know what you need and can ask someone who also looks like they know what they're doing to help you find it.<br />
<br />
Sharpening power tool blades is even more best left to people who know what they're doing. Let the area host know if a power tool's blades need to be serviced.<br />
<br />
== Shop Safety Best Practices ==<br />
<!-- A volunteer member editor should put a set of eyes on making sure this makes sense, or remove it entirely. --><br />
Pumping Station: One is not responsible for making sure you operate tools safely. This wiki is edited by volunteers who ''do not speak for Pumping Station:One.'' For a primer on general shop safety best practices, take a look at [http://www.epa.gov/dfe/pubs/auto/bestpractices/bestpr.htm the EPA's recommendations] and [https://www.pratt.edu/uploads/Shop_Orientation_Manual.pdf Pratt's orientation manual]. Various A&M schools also have excellent recommendations.<br />
<br />
== Budgets ==<br />
We are working on a real time accounting of budgets and expenditures.<br />
<br />

<br />
== Sources for Wood ==<br />
Owl Lumber is usually the recommended place to get wood. Their store in Niles is much bigger than the one in Lombard.<br />
<br />
People have also had success buying used oak tables off their favorite marketplace and planing/milling the table top for use.<br />

== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==<br />
<br />
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and declutter the workspace - feel free to help out!<br />
<br />
* Fix rolling fire door rail (roll door to right, replace missing bolts holding rail to wall will bring that rail plumb again, test)<br />
<br />
* Straighten out door counterweight cover to left of rolling fire door (remove appx six lag bolts, take cover off, beat the shit outa it to make it square, replace it on wall).<br />
<br />
* Repair left dust collector door. (Remove stop from top rail, roll door to left to free the center trolley, tighten nuts to relevel/plumb door so that it is plumb-relative to right door, replace end stop)<br />
<br />
* Use hydraulic cement or such to reattach rolling door rails to wall in dock. There are new bolts there but existing old bolts need to be reattached to wall at right side<br />
<br />
* DONE Finish hooking up the dust collection <br />
* DONE Repair the floor on the flat sheet vertical rack (the bottom is broken) and throw away the junk and edit the ticketed items.<br />
* DONE Incorporate a rack for tall sticks of lumber (8ft. 2x4's, long rips of narrow material).<br />
* DONE Reorganize "salvage" material storage <br />
** NOW: right quarter of ply rack, <br />
*** small pieces to right of ply rack, <br />
<br />
<br />
* DONE Get the [[Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw]] station built.<br />
* DONE Build a Google Calendar for Major tool Preventive Maintenance with manufacturer recommendations for maintenance tasks<br />
* DONE Jigs and fences for the [[Rockwell Delta 20" Bandsaw]].<br />
* DONE Plumb in some air lines. Paul Van Lake anchored the line on the wall next to the ladders so maybe we can tap off of that.<br />
* Shop signs. If a member is looking for a practice project post laser or ShopBot authorization, have them make pertinent/helpful tool and warning signs. <br />
* DONE Go through the cabinet under the miter saw and clean out the junk glue and useless material.<br />
* DONE Build shelves under work benches for member projects once racks are made to store glue clamps.<br />
* DONE Design a better method to store the clamps that are in bins on the floor.<br />
* DONE Fix the cable on the [[Grizzly 6" jointer]] - the ground wire is exposed.<br />
* DONE Fix the plugs on the northwest wall. They are hanging, and it is hard sometimes to plug in the jointer without the cable falling off.<br />
* Build an enclosed cabinet for the router table to prevent dust and organize bits and tools.<br />
* DONE Add racks above sanders router and drill press<br />
* Repair replace worktables<br />
* DONE prepare vote for new equipment (SawStop, lathe, racks) TO BE DELIVERED /INSTALLED DEC. (SAW, RACKS)and jan.(lathe)<br />
