== 2023 notes ==
   −
== Laser Authorization ==
+
I'm around more than before and happy to do basic authorizations when available. Limited availability.
   −
Here is how I would like to conduct laser authorizations for you … efficiently, and at a time that is convenient for you. Efficiently means a couple of things, first it means that you help figure out how to get several (2-9) other members to also agree to do the authorization session at the same time. When? That isn't so important, because I don't have a 9-5 job and my schedule is more variable than yours. Now, at that point, I can't guarantee that I can do it on your first choice of day/time but I'll try to.  Once you tell me who wants to be authorized … and can give me a list of names and email addresses, I'll set up a Google Calendar event for it and invite everyone to be a 'guest' for the event.
     −
Then, I expect everyone that was invited to reply and confirm, and everyone that confirms to show up. If someone doesn't confirm, I won't guarantee that I'll be able to fit them in … and if they don't show up, I will expect bribes of food/beer and apologies.
+
== 2018 notes ==
 +
 
 +
As of 7/19/2018 I'm not accommodating miscellaneous authorization requests. I may volunteer to cover a regularly scheduled authorization, but I'm withdrawing offers to schedule my time.
 +
 
 +
CNC area is much more active in 2018 than it had been in previous years, and there are quite a few more options for laser authorization. I expect that [[Canvas]] and the many new volunteer authorizers will take much of the burden of conducting laser authorizations.
 +
 
 +
Here is how I would like to conduct laser authorizations for you:
 +
 
 +
2018 and going forward: Get added to the Canvas learning management system and start the course for the laser you want to use, if one exists. If not, familiarize yourself with Canvas anyway, and drive forward with the other steps, below (or look on the Calendar, Google Groups for already-scheduled events.)

2016-2018: Figure out how to get several (2-9) other members to also agree to do the authorization session at the same time. When? That isn't so important, because I don't have a 9-5 job and my schedule is more variable than yours.

My authorizations take between an hour and an hour and a half, and don't cover either the use of the rotary attachment or the use of colors to specify settings, but will cover everything you need to know to be safe and to operate the machine effectively and efficiently as a new user. Wear appropriate clothing and bring a friend if you want.

== Public Relations ==
+
If you have already been authorized by me for the Epilog, and if you familiarize yourself with things for the Boss prior to meeting up, it might take as little as 15 minutes to do an authorization.
 +
 
 +
== PS:One to-do lists ==
 +
 
 +
The thing about some bigger projects like some of these: they can't happen by yourself, alone, nearly as well as when other people contribute. Getting 2 or more volunteer people to align on a task for any time at all is tough.
