You will be working in the Woodworking Sanding Room . In order to keep safe from hazards created by you or other workers using any of the tools in this room, the following precautions apply in addition to any other precautions:

Safety

Hazards

  • Dust
  • Noise
  • Projectile (materials being thrown
  • Laceration (sharp edges created by workpiece)
  • Entanglement (spinning parts sucking user into equipment)

PPE

  • Hearing Protection
  • Respiratory protection (minimum N95 mask; respirator preferred)
  • Safety Glasses
  • Safety shoes

Tie back or remove loose hair, clothing, jewelry, etc.

Precautions

Do

  • Read the Safe Work Procedure and obtain North Forge approval before using the equipment for the first time.
  • Maintain a calm but vigilant attitude. If you are stressed or in a hurry, it’s best not to use the equipment.
  • Tie back long hair and jewelry; remove earbuds and hoodie cords.
  • Check the workspace for slip and trip hazards.
  • Ensure the equipment is in good condition (hoses and power cords in good condition, no clogs in dust extraction hoses).
  • Inspect the material for cracks, knots, or debris before starting - material can shatter or kick back if it is not stable.
  • Check the equipment for trapped debris when done.
  • Use a brush and/or vacuum to clean most of the dust before finishing with compressed air.


Do not

  • Use the equipment if you are tired, intoxicated, or otherwise impaired
  • Rush
  • Distract operators - if you need to get someone’s attention, stand to the side and wait until they notice you. Do not wave, shout, or touch the operator.
  • Leave the equipment with equipment still running - note that hearing protection can prevent users from hearing when the equipment is/is not running.
  • Sand metal due to risk of sparks and equipment/property damage.

Housekeeping

  • Check the working area for slip and trip hazards (sawdust, oil, offcuts) before and after working
  • Do not leave air hoses or extension cords laying across walkways where people can trip on them
  • Check hoses for excess sawdust or other clogs
  • Empty the dust collector if it is filled to more than halfway up the viewing window (~1 garbage bag worth of dust)
  • Empty waste bins if they are more than 75% full
    • Bag waste should be less than 6x6”
    • Blunt any sharp corners that could puncture the bag
    • Replace waste bags after emptying
    • Firewood bins are only for untreated wood with no paints or stains
  • Return all fab lab tools to their proper locations
  • Remove all personal tools, materials, and equipment from the room
    • Fire code prohibits storing material in the wood room
  • Turn off the equipment and dust collector.
  • Turn off the room exhaust if you are the last one in the room.
    • Room exhaust is interlocked with equipment power; turning off the exhaust will turn off all equipment in the room!
