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, have 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.

== Wood Shop Improvement Projects ==
The Wood Shop has lots of ongoing improvement projects to help organize and de-clutter the workspace - feel free to help out!
* Finish hooking up the dust collection for the sanding and small band saw area.
* Repair the floor on the flat sheet vertical rack (the bottom is broken) and through away the junk and edit the ticketed items. Incorporate a rack for tall sticks of lumber ( 8ft. 2x4's, long rips of narrow material).
* Get the [[Bosch Sliding Compound Miter Saw]] station built.
* Make a rack for the larger bar clamps to be affixed to the wall or even to lay flat somewhere.
* New out feed table for [[SawStop table saw]] to include storage space for sleds, tenon jig, and other jigs. Paul Van Lake is building separate sleds for accurate 45 degree bevel and straight cuts, dado sled, sled for 45 degree and adjustable angle miter cuts.
* Jigs and fences for the [[Rockwell Delta 20" Bandsaw]].
* 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.
* 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.
* Go through the cabinet under the miter saw and clean out the junk glue and useless material.
* Build shelves under work benches for member projects once racks are made to store glue clamps.
* Design a better method to store the clamps that are in bins on the floor.
* Fix the cable on the [[Grizzly 6" jointer]] - the ground wire is exposed.
* 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.
* Build an enclosed cabinet for the router table to prevent dust and organize bits and tools.
* Build a table for the [[Craftsman 20in Drill Press]] with dust collection.
