== Authorizers ==
''Main article: [[Volunteer Authorizer]]''

Getting authorized on tools can be tough. Sometimes it's hard for new members to figure out how to get authorized, sometimes classes fill up in hours, sometimes classes aren't scheduled regularly. We want to fix that. The Board has created the following Volunteer Positions. We need a few members to step up and offer their time to get people authorized.

Communications Team

== Goals & Purpose ==

The purpose of this team is to create a group that will manage internal and external communications at Pumping Station: One. They will function as both an internal relations and a public relations team. The Communications Team will perform all duties related to member notifications and updates, communicate with individuals and organizations interested in working with Pumping Station: One, and increase awareness about PS1. The goal of this team is ultimately to increase the sense of community at PS1 and to foster relationships between our organization and others. The team is being established to create positions solely for handling these communication tasks, rather than splitting time between multiple, differing jobs.

Action Items in order of Priority

Hand Planes

Fidelg:

This is a collection of all of the **working** hand planes in the shop. I am working to get them up and running; once they are I will post them here.

''Note: These hand planes are rough (if you are a beginner then you really can't tell based on how I set them up, so you can stop reading this). If you have used a lot of hand tools you'll notice their issues immediately, and you would be better off using your own. An apt power tool comparison would be a Ryobi retrofitted to use a Dewalt battery ''

'''Groz Hand Plane:'''

[[File:Groz_Hand_Plane_Front.jpg|206x240px]]

''Description:'' This hand plane is a zombie of a bunch of different parts. It is the size of a Stanley #4.

''Body:'' Indian Made, Possibly Groz Brand

''Blade:'' Stanley, likely post 1970 make

''Cap:'' Groz

''Sharpening:'' Set up as a smoothing plane; ''bevel 30deg''

''Other Notes:'' This plane is a little backwards: to retract the blade rotate the adjustment knob clockwise, to advance the blade rotate counter-clockwise

This is a collection of all of the **working** hand planes in the shop. I am working to get them up and running; once they are I will post them here.

''Note: These hand planes are rough (if you are a beginner then you really can't tell based on how I set them up, so you can stop reading this). If you have used a lot of hand tools you'll notice their issues immediately, and you would be better off using your own. An apt power tool comparison would be a Ryobi retrofitted to use a Dewalt battery ''

! This page is under construction !

We're working to catalog all of the wood shop hand tools that are available. This will exclude things like screwdrivers, wrenches, or other common household tools.

If this page isn't finished by June 2022 then the project is likely dead.
