 ==== Can I use any of the tools as a member? ====
-Mostly, yes! You should have an [[members/inductions|induction]] or ask for help to use the [[members/laser cutter]] and [[members/table saw]], but any other tool is free for you to use. Some tools are quite dangerous, so please use caution, especially for power tools. If you are unsure, ask someone at the space or on Discord, and they can teach you how to safely use a tool, to make sure you don't hurt yourself or accidentally damage something.
