Safety course

[lastcoolnameleft]

• Coordinate with Woodcraft for volunteer time to teach safety course
• Need blanket waiver for tool approval

have spoken at length with woodcraft and they are reluctant to "teach" a safety course. They have however provided their documentation they use showing safety tips for respective machines. We can easily convert this into a working online course or prez at a minimum. I've started compiling this and will update.

@cloudislands Good to know. When we paid for everything, I spoke to them as well and offered them to use it as an advertisement. They were open to the idea, so we might have to reach out again after the dust has settled (Pun intended)

Thanks @cloudislands for posting this information. As I understand it, you would have a designated safety instructor train you on each of the items on the list, and once you've gone through the full list, then both you and the instructor sign the paper and it's stored and recorded and you're good to use it?

@GeekPatrolMiller Are you ok if we replace Woodcraft with TheLab.ms in the waiver provided above and use that for any members wanting to use the dirty-space?

After some scouring, I really like DMS's waiver. We can take their Doc version and modify it to fit our needs. We might need to find a way to get existing members to sign so it can be put into effect across the board.
