Bunker

Location

The bunker, containing the wood shop and the metal shop, protrudes out of the southern face of the building. Enter through the plastic strip curtains.

Rules

While it goes against LVL1's ethos to have rules, but these are for your own personal safety, the safety of others, and consideration of others, which are definitely part of our ethos.

Always:

• Wear the proper safety equipment (especially safety glasses) when in workshop area. Safety glasses are available for your use in the corner of the wood shop by the door.
• Wear shoes that cover the complete foot, no sandals or flip flops.
• Familiarize yourself of the location of the first aid kit and the fire extinguisher. These items are located in the space's first aid center, in the front of the common room.
• Clean up your mess. Brooms, dustpans, and vacuums abound. Make use of them.
• Put away any tools you used.
• Let someone know if you break a power tool or a bit, blade or handtool. It happens sometimes, just let someone know by contacting broken@lvl1.org
• ALWAYS CLEAN UP BEFORE YOU LEAVE.

Never:

• use a tool you are unfamiliar with. Ask someone if you aren't sure.
• use a tool in a way it wasn't designed; this is the quickest way to break a tool or to get injured.
• be in a rush. Rushing is how fingers are lost.
• use a rag or towel near running equipment.
• wear ties, loose clothing, jewelry, gloves, etc. when operating shop equipment.
• use compressed air guns to clean clothing and hair. Use the shopvac instead!
• service a machine while it is on. Unplug where practical.
