The equipment in the PCB Lab has its own special purpose and benefits. The pick n place allows you to quickly place surface mount components. Voltera printers use conductive ink to print out the traces for producing a circuit board. The curing oven quickly heats the paste on circuit board and .

These are a few steps that will help you be successful in the Wood Shop. 
 +
* Always inspect materials for nails or metal. Metal debris in wood will damage the equipment and possibly cause injury to you. 
 +
* Gluing end grain together is a very weak joint.
 +
* Make sure the process you are using is correct for your material type.
 +
* Get help handling larger pieces of wood.

 +
* Blades and cutters are very sharp so always think before touching.
 +
* Be aware of the location of your fingers in relation to blades and cutters. Never let your hands or finger come close to the blade path.
 +
* Be aware of people and what they are doing around you.
 +
* Be aware of what is on the floor around you. Don't trip on dust collector hoses or electrical cords.
