Thanks to @Jonty_Bottomley for a great induction today and for 2 open evenings before that. Your dedication has made it possible for me to get up and running in the space very quickly.

Big thank you to @joeatkin2 for letting me distract him from the wiring to show me how to work the thicknesser. Blimey, it is loud, isn’t it?

Thank you @Beth for getting a hammer for the lathe so I don’t rip my knuckles to pieces again

Massive thanks to @Beth for her fantastic L1 induction, with infinite patience she explained everything in detail twice- even a dunce like me could understand!
Thankyou so much to @Mouat who took 4 hours(!) out of a beautiful Sunday afternoon to teach me how to make a bowl, he was just amazing. I’m super proud of my bowl (been showing it off to everyone) and I’m really excited to use all of the lathe skills I’ve learned.
I’m humbled by the amount of time and friendliness you guys (and everyone at Makerspace) has invested in me and I hope that in the future I can extend the same time and willingness to teach back into our little community,
Thanks again! : D

Massive thanks to @Mouat for the L2 induction today. Thanks for taking time out of your weekend, for being an awesome inductioner (if that’s even a word?!) and for the patience you showed. Forever grateful.

A very belated thanks to @Jonty_Bottomley for teaching me about (and how to use) the table saw about a week ago - it was super helpful, and you’re a great teacher, Jonty!

No Problem, pleasure - if you want to bring your SMD oven in one evening, we can do a couple of the upgrades on that as well ?

Thanks to @TomHedges for all the work he is doing behind the scenes on documenting woodwork inductions - a thankless but essential task that lots of people benefit from, so thank you.

Big thanks to @Esther_Gladstone and @TomHedges for giving up their time to run the L1 Lathe Induction today. I now want to turn every bit of wood I can get my hands on!

Great thanks! I’ll aim to bring it in this side of Christmas :wink: It’s the next one up from the T962a so a bit bulkier to carry.
