* [https://www.manitoba.ca/labour/safety/pdf/whs_workplace_safety_act_and_regs.pdf The law] 16.13 says that we can not leave a machine unattended unless the machine or part has been (a) immobilized and secured against movement; or (b) enclosed by a safeguard to prevent access by any other worker to the machine or part | |||
** The Shopbots themselves are not enclosed. The [[CNC Woodworking Room]] contains tools in addition to the shopbots, and those tools may be used by other workers. This means we must not run our CNC machinery unattended. | |||
