| − | These are the types of devices that most Makespace members will likely already be familiar with and have used at some point; Jigsaws, power drills and soldering irons being examples. If a member is unsure as to the use of a device, then structured training will available. Members can be ‘asked’ to attend training if they are seen to be struggling, but the expectation is people will know their limits and be responsible and ask for help.

| − | | + | |
| − | Devices not marked are assumed to be in the green class.
