This wiki contains information on the various tools and facilities of the Santa Barbara Hackerspace.
Preventing injury to people (and equipment) is our first priority. To do this, users must demonstrate knowledge and competence. After completing Basic Training, users can certify their competence allowing access to each tool.
It is of the utmost importance that users obey the mandatory Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) requirements when using tools in the MakerSpace. Reminder signs are placed throughout the MakerSpace, and more detailed information can be found in the Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) forms below, copies of which are also available in the MakerSpace.
Every MakerSpace user (defined as anyone who touches any tool or piece of equipment) must complete the Basic Training. This includes signing the Waiver Form (hard copies available from any Fab Tech), reading & signing any and all documents sent as part of the sign up process. Completion of Basic Training allows entry and access to hand tools in the MakerSpace.
