Training and induction will start with a tour of the tool introducing all its parts. The training we give is a course of about 10 hours, in several sessions, and is intended to get a user started with enough information to work safely alone in aluminium and brass.

All trained users must sign a [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fKSRiY0_zrLGFZ47uiUYaxeDdCYLk91etjuxltmfV2k/edit?usp=sharing safety work-list] before being signed off as competent on the Warco mill.

= Laser Cutter Training =

This page documents the process for being trained on the Laser Cutter, and the list of members who have completed that training.

== Summary ==

Training takes place in three main steps:
* Group Training of 1-4 members, going through the equipment and how to use it (~1hr)
* Individual Training Task, where an individual member is set a task to complete to prove and improve understanding (~30min each)

Training on the Laser Cutter is run by the Laser Cutter Owners. The Laser Cutter Owners are a group of people responsible for maintaining and training on the laser cutter, and hence have been trained to train, and trained to perform the weekly and monthly maintenance on the laser cutter.

== Booking ==

Sessions are advertised on '''http://meetup.makespace.org'''
* For discussing training, or requesting additional slots if needed, use the mailing list thread: [https://groups.google.com/d/topic/cammakespace/vNrS07zVuY0/discussion Training : Laser Cutter]

Notes:
* You can only be trained if you have your name allocated to a slot (groups will be restricted to four at a time, so please don't make up additional spaces)
* You must do the group and individual training on the same day

'''Filter Changing'''

Filters come in big (pre-filter) and small (carbon fine filter) sizes, and can be changed individually. Filters are kept in the office.

To change, remove both filters and close cabinet door. Turn on machine.

Press up and down arrows together, until green light by tick starts flashing. Then use up/down arrows to adjust air flow. It should be at the lowest setting that gives 4 green speed dots.

Put the new filters in and turn on the machine. It should adjust to the correct flow.

Historically the filters have been marked with the date they were put in. This is now being altered so that there is a paper inside each door with the dates for upper/lower filters. Write the date filters were changed on that paper.

Filters should be changed in a ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 upper to lower. Pre-filters get clogged up easily, and changed more often. Try 1:2.

=To Do: 20 Jan 2017=

Change upper filter on Jaws. Tape ordinary, boring, non-lined paper into door. It doesn't have to be fancy. Mark today's date for upper and a date of early December for lower.

'''Notes'''

At date of writing, Betsy's filter is going slowly and that's fine. Jaws is not clearing the air right. Suggest shortening the pipe as well as changing the filters - there is a taped section which could be removed.

Drilling

2015-06-24T23:54:48Z

DianaProbst: /* Cobalt bits */

Makespace has several sets of drill bits for different purposes:

* '''General purpose bits''' These have a yellow coating, come in 0.5mm increments, are are kept in a box near the drill presses.
* '''0.1mm bits''' These are dark grey, come in 0.1mm increments, and are also kept near the drill presses.
* '''Centre bits''' Short, grey bits used to drill a starting hole. Kept in a wooden box near the lathe.
* '''Cobalt bits''' Grey, kept in a black box (FIXME - where?). Intended for drilling steel. Expensive, use only if you're confident that you know what you're doing. Do not use these in a handheld drill - use only in the lathe, mill, or drill press.

Checklist for drilling:

* Are you using the '''correct size''' of bit from the '''cheapest appropriate''' set of bits (see descriptions below)?
* Have you '''set the speed''' correctly from your material and the drill diameter?
* Are you using '''cutting lubricant''' for drilling metal?
* Are you putting it back in the '''correct place'''?

Remember: breaking a bit is forgiveable, but 'fess up and report it on the google group.

== General purpose bits ==

[[File:general_bits.jpg]]

These can be reordered [http://www.screwfix.com/p/erbauer-hss-drill-bit-trade-pack-150pcs/73567 here].

These bits are suitable for most drilling tasks, but may fail to get through steel.

Replacements are kept in a white box in the drawer labelled 'replacement bits'.

[[File:Drillbits.jpg]]

== 0.1 mm increment bits ==

[[File:precise_bits.jpg]]

Do you know where these were ordered from? If so, please edit this page.

These bits are useful when you need to drill a hole of a diameter than is not a multiple of 0.5mm, but we do not have replacements so please use them sparingly, and drill out a hole of a smaller diameter using a 0.5mm bit first.

For example, if I want to drill a hole of 8.2mm diameter, I would do the following:
* Use a centre bit to drill a shallow hole.
* Drill with a 5mm bit from the general purpose bits.
* Drill with a 8mm bit from the general purpose bits.
* Finally drill with the 8.2mm bit.

Check that the bit you have taken out really is the correct size (it may be printed on the shank, otherwise use callipers to check), only take '''one at a time''' out, and make sure you '''replace it in the correct hole'''.

== Centre bits ==

[[File:centre_bits.jpg]]

These short, fat bits are much more resistant to deflection, so tend to put your hole in the right place. They can be delicate, and some of Makespace's set have had their fluted tip broken off. Please don't use a bit that is much smaller than the first 'full length' bit you're going to drill with.

== Cobalt bits ==

[[File:cobalt_bits.jpg]]

These can be reordered [http://www.toolstation.com/shop/p60904 here].

These drill bits are harder, making them more able to drill steel without being damaged. However, there are very expensive. '''Please think carefully before attempting to drill with these'''
Have you:
* Mounted the bit in either a drill press or the lathe tailstock, or in the mill? (Do not use these bits in a handheld drill!)
* Applied cutting lubricant?
* Set the speed of the drill press, lathe, or mill appropriately?

'''If in doubt, ask for help!'''

== Cutting lubricant ==

When cutting metal, a cutting lubricant will usually give a better, more accurate, surface finish, and will protect the tool from damage.

For steel, we have a lubricant called Molyslip. You can buy more at Mackays. It lives in a plastic bottle, often near the metal mill.

For aluminium, we do not have any dedicated cutting lubricant. These are often paraffin wax based. If you want to do some research and order some (and write about it here), that would be great!
In the mean time, Boots plain lip balm seems to improve the cutting somewhat.

'''If in doubt, as for help!'''

== Cutting lubricant ==

When cutting metal, a cutting lubricant will usually give a better, more accurate, surface finish, and will protect the tool from damage.

For steel, we have a lubricant called Molyslip. You can buy more at Mackays. It lives in a plastic bottle, often near the metal mill.

For aluminium, we do not have any dedicated cutting lubricant. These are often paraffin wax based. If you want to do some research and order some (and write about it here), that would be great!
In the mean time, Boots plain lip balm seems to improve the cutting somewhat.

Lessons in progress:

* Matthew Taylor. Not confident. Must begin again if he trains
* Steve O. Conversion from previous experience. Understands safety. Partial supervision and further teaching
* John Sturdy. Asks the right sort of questions, but also leap-frogs current info. May find it difficult to teach people.
* Jonny Waite. Competent, must go over course for safety and to learn teaching.

Adding to course:

L-plate model inappropriate. P plate better. Can create log book, if they want to be signed off on things. Log book with pictures or actual finished projects are required.

[[File:warco_mill.jpg|thumb|460px|right|Warco Mill]]

= Summary =
(This machine has been purchased but not yet opened to users.)

The Warco mill can be used to machine objects from a wide range of materials. Training is required before members use the equipment because it is easy for users to damage it, and serious injuries, or fatalities, are possible. The machine has a table 660 x 152mm that can move 37cm in the X direction, 15cm in the Y and 34cm in the Z direction.

== Owners ==
* Diana Probst
* Mat Cook
* Roger Smith

== Health and Safety ==
* Power supply to be disconnected when changing tools.
* All cutting tools to be kept in their holders until they are required.
* Waste material/offcuts to be kept clear of work area.
* Equipment will be checked for defects before each use to minimise the risk of possible electrical faults or fire.
* Carbon Dioxide extinguisher to be available for any electrical fires
* Eye protection to be worn when using the equipment.
* Risk assessment: https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=forums&srcid=MDgwNzUyNzQ4MjA0NjE0MDY2NDIBMTU4NTI2NjEyMjIzOTU5MDkyODQBdmpubUpFanBkTklKATAuMQEBdjI

== Training ==

<div style="background:#FADADD; border:1px solid #FFC0CB; padding:5px">
<b>THE MILL CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. ONLY APPROVED OPERATORS ARE PERMITTED TO USE IT.</b><br>
</div>

To get the required training to become an approved operator please contact one of the owners.

The owners will help users make the best use of the mill but it must be emphasised that learning to take full advantage of all its capabilities takes months of practice. The owners have limited time so members will need to take responsibility for much of their own training. More details about the training can be found at

* [[Equipment/WarcoMill/Training|Mill Training]]

== Instructions ==

== Tips & Tricks ==

Use a conventional milling cut to get the part to approximately the final size. With a conventional cut the cutting surface and the work piece are moved in opposite directions. A climbing cut is where the cutting surface and the work piece are moved in the same direction. It produces a better finish but puts extra strain on the cutting tool. Therefore only use climbing cuts for light finishing cuts to leave a smooth finish.

When drilling, start with a centre drill to make sure that the hole starts exactly centre. It is usually OK to drill to a depth of 3 to 4 diameters in a single pass. After that withdraw the drill ever diameter of cutting depth to clear the swarf. Use cutting fluid beyond a depth of about 2 diameters. Be aware that halving the diameter of a drill reduces its strength 8 fold. Small drills break very easily and broken tools present a hazard. Much much less pressure is needed to drill small diameter holes. Use just enough pressure to create long curly chips. Look up the appropriate rotation speed for the drill. The Warco cannot spin fast enough for drills below about 2mm. For these, use our Sherline Mill.

== Maintenance ==

* Clean away all swarf at the end of a work session with a brush or vacuum. Do not blow because this can send chips where they can damage the machine. Bare hands are very easily injured by the sharp surfaces.

== Further Information ==
