== Lathe ==
We have a Grizzly G4015Z combination lathe / mill with a 3-jaw chuck.
* The lathe is most likely not aligned / leveled, so beware if you are doing precision work.
* The scales are indicated at 0.001" / 0.025mm. Obviously, one of the these is wrong. It's unfortunately the metric -- it should be 0.0254mm.
== Mill & Drill Machine ==
We have a JET-15 milling machine. The manual is elusive and hard to find online, but we keep a copy in a binder in the metalshop.
It mostly works, but:
* The spindle is prone to overheating and needs to be lubricated somehow.
* There is no spindle brake that we know of, you might want to use a strap wrench to hold onto the spindle while tightening / loosening the drawbar.
== Tools ==

The Metal Shop contains some metal working tools like a manual desktop mill and lathe.

Rules

  1. Do not attempt to work with the machines unless you are experienced or have had someone teach you. The machines can be deadly
  2. Wear protective goggles. Tie your hair and do not wear any loose clothing
  3. Read through the manuals for the machine you are using
  4. Apply way oil on the ways for the lathe / milling machine
  5. After finishing work:
    • Vacuum your chips
    • Put cutting tools back to where they belong
    • Leave the space better than you found it

Equipment

On the shelves and under the table in the metal room you should be able to find:

  • Cutting tools and tool holders for the lathe. There are some on the shelves and in the chest below the lathe
  • Endmills
  • Measuring tools and parallels
