Planer Thicknesser Assessment

@woodtechs

Is anyone around to do a planer assessment for me in the next week or so? Quite flexible on timing.

I can be in the space:
today until 6:30 (11 March)
Tomorrow until 6 (12th)
Friday anytime (13th… Spooky :black_cat:)
Sat after 12
Sunday anytime
Monday until 6
Tuesday anytime

Thanks!

Hi Neil - unfortunately our availability for these hasn’t been good lately, we might struggle this week.

Have you done the quiz and induction material on the tool page?

Haven’t yet no, was planning to have those done prior to assessment, though.

I’ll have a read through now and see if someone in the shop can help run a few planks through with supervision.

Thanks! Not a huge rush regardless.

Having someone else run material through is fine, but please refrain from using it yourself uninducted (even under another members supervision).

The last workshop I was a member of had members lose fingers on their planer-thicknesser - we have a strong safety record in part because we are so strict about it.

Hi Neil,

I cannot do office hours but your other times work.

Friday 7pm or this weekend up to you. Saturday I can only do after 2pm.

Hello!

Getting back around to this now that the shop is back up and running proper :smiley:

Is anyone around tomorrow (friday) or this weekend to run through the assessment with me? I’m only busy Saturday morning until noon, otherwise free.

Thanks!

I missed one tick box on the quiz because it referenced a ‘Combination fence’ and it was referred to as the ‘Planer fence’ in the guide material. (fwiw)

Sorry I’m away this weekend and quite busy next week. I can do next Friday May 1st at 6pm if that works for you?

I can also do on the Saturday 2nd.

@plietar Friday at 6pm would be great if that still works for you! If not I can def swing by after noon on the 2nd. Thanks again :raising_hands:

Let’s do Friday then! Please make sure to bring a piece of solid wood we can use during the induction.

Hi Neil, sorry I misjudged my travel time a bit and will be there closer to 6.15.
