Third Day on the Grind
What should I know / have done by the end of today?
By the end of today, you should feel comfortable:
- With everything from the First Day on the Grind and Second Day on the Grind
- Watching the shop on your own
At this point in time, you have learned nearly all of the basics. Below is just a list of comments, suggestions, etc. Feel free to add some!
Things you can do when you're bored:
- Help someone with their project
- Document proper use of a tool/tips on our wiki
- Take a picture of someone's project, post it on our AHA Facebook Page or get access and make a post on AHA's website!
- Make something beautiful! Check out the Made Something Beautiful page for some suggestions.
Helpful bits of information
- If you can't make it to a shift, email the AHA Staff Mailing list to let them know.
- If no one can work the shift, email the AHA Members and AHA Public list and let them know we will be closed during that time.
- A week heads up is great. Less than that and someone will be sad, but that's okay.
- Keep your eyes and ears open, this can help a number of things:
- Some times people forget to clean up, remind them before they try to leave you/someone else with the mess!
- Some times people forget to wear safety glasses, or clamp things down on the drill press. Save their eyes and fingers!*
- * Saving eyes and fingers is a good idea regardless of their attachment to their physical body.
