<hr />
<div>The Tormeck is an incredibly capable sharpening tool and unlike grinding on a high speed grinder, it will protect the metal hardness of the cutting tool while restoring a damaged or dull blade. The jigs will insure proper angles on a blade.<br />
<br />
'''This is not a standard grinder. It is a low speed water grinder. The stone wheel can be have an effective 220 or 1000 grit surface. Read the manuals for more information''' <br />

<br />
Before using the tool, understand these rules:<br />
* Never operate the tool without water. <br />
* Read the manuals before operation.<br />
* Suggested: Talk to someone who has used it before for a quick hands-on in person tutorial, about 10 minutes.<br />
* Suggested Videos to watch:<br />
'''-These videos do not replace reading the manuals!!'''<br />

<div>The pre-req for this class is Wood Shop 101, the introduction course. During this class we will build a picture frame using some of the more advance tools.<br />
<br />
Taking a standard stock piece of hardwood, we will use the joiner to obtain a flat side, the plainer to get a defined thickness, the router to obtain a wood profile and the drum sander to obtain a smooth finish. The goal of the class is to create a profiled board from which to create a picture frame.<br />
<br />
Please watch these videos before the class to gain the basics of these tools. During the class we will go over some the tips and tricks for our tools and get hands-on experience.<br />
<br />
Required:<br />
<br />
Jointer:<br />

<div>The TinkerMill has a wonderful and complete woodworking shop. We communicate using Slack in #woodshop for tool repair status and event coordination. <br />
<br />
''The wood shop is a great place to learn basic woodworking and more advanced woodworking skills.''<br />
<br />

<br />
== Top things you should know about the Wood Shop ==<br />
<br />
<br />
1. '''Woodshop classes are taught every month'''. You must take the Wood Shop Introduction and Safety class before using any of the power tools that are not hand power tools. All TinkerMill members can use hand non-powered and hand power tools. All larger power tools, such as the drill press, chop saw among others can be used after taking a certification class. The ShopBot and Lathe have their own separate certification classes. See the MeetUp calendar for the coming classes. <br />
<br />
<br />
2. '''The Wood Shop community''' night is every other week and it is a great place to get advice on how to approach a project or get finer points on wood craft.<br />
<br />
<br />
3. The SawStop table saw is incredibly accurate, powerful and full of safety features. '''It can be used after the wood shop certification class.'''<br />
<br />
<br />
4. '''Every user of the space is responsible for cleaning up during and after your project.''' There is no cleaning service. If you don't clean up your mess another TinkerMill Member will be forced to clean up and you may loose privileges to use the space. Follow the 105% rule - Leave the space 5% better than the way you found it. <br />
<br />

<br />
== Classes ==<br />
<br />
We are building classes that are offered in the Wood Shop. The Wood Shop is built on the idea that anyone can learn wood working and some people have varying levels of previous experience. The fictitious course numbers are provided as rough gauge of class level. The Wood Shop Introduction and Safety Class is a prerequisite for all other classes and there are no other prerequisite classes unless specifically noted. Classes are taught by volunteers and not yet taught on a regular basis besides the Introduction class that is taught about once every two weeks. If a class is of interest, contact a shop captain or message on Slack.<br />
<br />
'''1. [[Wood Shop Introduction and Safety Class]] (Wood Shop 101)'''<br />
<br />
Everyone using the space must take this class to learn how to use the basic tools and safety features of the shop. Learn how to use the drill press, belt sander, band saw, miter saw (aka chop saw), and dust collection system. This class also includes an optional introduction to using the table saw. This class is a prerequisite for all other classes. <br />
<br />
<br />
'''2. [[Wood Shop Supreme]] (Wood Shop 201)'''<br />
<br />
Learn how to dimension a board and make a picture frame. This course covers how to use more advanced tools in the wood shop such as the router, planer, joiner, and drum sander. <br />
<br />
<br />
'''3. Make a Wooden Spoon (Wood Shop 105)'''<br />
<br />
Learn how to use chisels and gouges to shape wood by hand. Simple power tools such as the band saw and belt sander. The rough contours are created and then progressively finer sandpaper is used to smooth the wood. Finally the spoon is sealed with a food safe finish. <br />
<br />
<br />
'''4. Lathe Certification (Wood Shop 110)'''<br />
<br />
Get certified to use the Lathe. This is a specialized tool and requires specific safety instruction.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''5. Make a Birdhouse'''<br />
<br />
<br />
'''6. Make a Jewelry Box (Wood Shop 205)'''<br />
<br />
Learn about rough stock selection, resawing stock on the band saw, and designing projects with wood movement in mind while building a small box (approx. 4"x4"x6"). The techniques in this class can be easily applied to larger boxes and chests as well as bookshelves and things with drawers. Approximately 10-12 hours of shop time spread over 4 sessions. Some experience or Woodshop 201 recommended.<br />
<br />
