Training is required before members use the equipment because it is easy for users to damage themselves and the tool. Maximum travel is about 300mm in the Y direction, about 190mm in X, and 45mm in Z.<br /> <br /> Machine is a generic 'CNC 3020', easily searchable on e.g. youtube for videos of use and configuration:<br /> <br /> * Configuration with LinuxCNC [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewtDYvcFZZ4 video] <br /> <br /> == Owners ==<br /> * [[user:WormyOne|Alexis Mather]]<br /> * [[user:tomoinn|Tom Oinn]]<br /> * [[user:RobCopcutt|Robert Copcutt]]<br /> * [[user:Mat-C|Mat Cook]] (tentative)<br /> <br /> == Health and Safety == <br /> * Power supply to be switched off when changing tools. <br /> * All cutting tools to be kept in their holders until they are required.<br /> * Keep work area clear of waste material and offcuts.<br /> * Check equipment for defects before each use to minimise the risk of possible electrical faults or fire. <br /> * Carbon Dioxide extinguisher to be available for any electrical fires. <br /> * Wear eye protection.<br /> * Do not use outside of the workshop until an enclosure has been built.<br /> <br /> == Instructions ==<br /> * '''Do not turn the black knobs on any of the three motors.''' Doing so may generate large voltages and damage the control board. Move only by command from the PC.<br /> <br /> == Tips &amp; Tricks ==<br /> <br /> <br /> == Maintenance ==<br /> <br /> = Training =<br /> To get trained on the mill contact one of the owners.<br /> <br /> Sessions are advertised on http://meetup.makespace.org<br /> <br /> More about the training can be found at<br /> * [[Equipment/PCB_Mill/Training|PCB Mill Training]]<br /> <br /> <br /> == Further Information ==</div>

<p>WormyOne: </p> <hr /> <div>Draft agenda:<br /> <br /> 1. Welcome<br /> <br /> 2. Health and Safety rules and requirements discussion<br /> <br /> - Fire risk assessments and responsible people<br /> <br /> - First aid risk assessments and responsible people<br /> <br /> - Electrical safety<br /> <br /> - Overall risk assessments<br /> <br /> - Health and safety policy drafting<br /> <br /> - (workshop equipment specifically we'll probably come to in a later meeting)<br /> <br /> 3. Day 1 planning: what needs to get done once the access control+insurance are in place?<br /> <br /> - Painting? Which areas? This is *much* easier with an empty space, especially if painting concrete floor.<br /> <br /> - Building/buying/installing benches? Where, how many<br /> <br /> - other important 'infrastructure' bits that should/need to happen early (additional lighting?, ventilation?)<br /> <br /> 4. Community rules discussion<br /> <br /> 5. Use case exploration and zone-planning<br /> <br /> 6. Wrap up</div>
