Revised 06/16/20
TOOLS & MATERIALS
Almost all of the tools and materials in the workshop are privately owned. Please get permission before using someone else’s tools or materials.
Tools marked with fluorescent green paint indicate that the owner has made the tools available for community use. Most of the community use tools are located on the COMMUNITY workbench (with the pegboard on the south wall). Community use tools may be borrowed (removed from workshop) for only 1 day.
Major power tools (table saw, drill press, chop saw, planer, jointer, band saw, etc.) are available only to Guild members.
Materials on the COMMUNITY shelves in the southeast corner of the workshop are available for anyone to use. There is also lumber available for anyone to use on the fluorescent green bunks in the Boardroom.

SAFETY
Close and lock all workshop doors when not in use. Unplug tools and retract blades when not in use. Children need adult supervision to be in the workshop.
WOODWORKING GUILD
Major power tools in the workshop are only available to Heartwood Woodworking Guild members (table saw, drill press, chop saw, planer, jointer, band saw, etc.). The Guild was created for the safe and equitable sharing of those major power tools. It is open to anyone who has learned to safely use the Guild tools and has paid their Buy-In Fee and Annual Fee.
The Guild Buy-In Fee is roughly equal to your expected number of days using the Guild tools per year times $25. So if you expect to use the Guild tools once per month, that would be 12 times per year times $25 equals a $300 Buy-In Fee. If you pay a Buy-In Fee of $1000 or more, your Annual Fees are waived for life. Annual Fees are currently set at $60 per year, due by April 30.
Fees are paid on a per household basis, but everyone in the household wanting to be in the Guild must complete tool safety training.
Please contact a current Guild member if you're interested in joining. Current Guild members are Mac, Ronda & Jack, Patrick, Dick, and Scott K.

Thoroughly clean up after yourself.
