Equipment / CNC Router / Training

CNC Router Training

This page documents the process for being trained on the CNC Router, 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)
• Project Oversight, where more experienced users oversee the projects being undertaken when cutting (first 2-3 projects)

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

Booking

Sessions are advertised on http://meetup.makespace.org

• For discussing training, or requesting additional slots if needed, use the mailing list thread: Training : CNC Router

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
