Basic Woodworking Induction Friday, 10 January at 10 am

mbg · 7 January 2025 17:55

Apologies for the late notice, but saw some availability to run one of these. This is the Basic Woodshop induction. This list is taken from the main waiting list .

The session will take around 2 hours and will include both verbal and practical demonstrations.

General health and safety
Compressor
Work bench
Clamps and vices
Saws and knives
Chisels, hammers and mallets
Hand planes, drills and drivers
Electric sanders
Jigsaw
Pillar Drill
Mitre Saw
Cleaning up

The content of the induction can be found here: Wood Workshop Basic Induction (L1)

To attend the induction, you must confirm you’ve read through the induction materials by taking this quiz: Basic Wood Shop Quiz

You must be a paid-up member of MakerSpace to attend an induction session and the cost of the induction is £5, please ensure that you bring this with you and give it to the inductor at registration.

There are 8 places available. If you are able to attend please tick the box to the left of your name.

NOTE: If 2 members click at same time it can sometimes overwrite 1 persons tick selection so check a few moments later to see if your tick has ‘stuck’ and if not do it again. Just a side-effect I think of the way that Wiki single click edits work…

If you are on the waiting list and are no longer interested then of course either remove yourself or let us know so that we can remove you and not include in future induction invitations.

After Thursday, 09 January at 12 pm, we will confirm the SIZE names highest on the list. Those folks will need to confirm their attendance by Friday, 10 January at 12 pm to hold their spot or it will be offered to others. If a minimum of 3 members are not available then the session may be postponed to a future date…

Inductees:
Inductor: @mbg

If you do not arrive for your induction without letting us know then you will be moved to the end of the list. If you can’t make it, message the inductor, to allow another member to take your place.

Safety Note: As the woodshop doesn’t have a HEPA filter, due to dust, please ensure you bring a suitable FFP3 mask to the induction. Should you need a single-use mask, we will have a few available at the space, but it is highly recommended you purchase a reusable one for future woodshop sessions.

Hi Max,

I don’t seem to be able to click the checkbox next to my name?

FrankBruno · 7 January 2025 18:08

Hi, I would love to attend but I can’t check the box either. B

Jacques_Morris · 7 January 2025 18:15

Thanks so much for organising these @mbg! Is there any chance you could do an induction on Friday 17th? (From Jacques - the guy with the California cribbage board!)

Thank you for the opportunity. Unfortunately, won’t be able to attend this session, but would be happy to join on any Monday instead. In the meantime, review the health and safety information on the wiki.

Thank you, unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend to this one as I will be out of London on Friday, I don’t seem to be able to edit to add a checkbox for next time.

Can’t attend but still interested. Is it intentional that the post can’t be edited? (Normally I add this next to my name and others’ as an option)

mbg · 7 January 2025 19:35

Hi all, sorry about that, can you try checking the boxes now?

theog123 · 8 January 2025 07:15

I’ve already done mine in the last induction, shall I remove myself from the list?

mbg · 8 January 2025 17:35

ah yes please. Please make sure to remove yourself from the main list, thats what gets copied into these induction posts

SarahMawen · 9 January 2025 13:26

Hello! I’m a new member and I’m interested in an introduction for woodworking. I’m not on the list, but was wondering if there was space for me to join tomorrow 10th January, or perhaps know how can I join the list to be able to attend the next one.
Thank you!

Thanks @mbg for hosting another induction.

Is this happening tomorrow? I’m a bit confused as it says induction is on (tomorrow) 10th January @10am but in the body of the info it says you need to confirm after the time for attending?

//After Thursday, 09 January at 12 pm, we will confirm the SIZE names highest on the list. Those folks will need to confirm their attendance by Friday, 10 January at 12 pm to hold their spot or it will be offered to others.//

And when do we need to complete the quiz by, is it by the induction start ok?

Cheers and Thanks

Wohooo I’m so exited, thanks for running the induction!

EmFarr · 10 January 2025 09:44

I’m really sorry, I’ve just seen this and I thought from the comment thread this wasn’t going ahead. I’m not going to get there for 10am now. Sorry I should have planned for a yes and checked first thing this morning.
