If you would like TinkerMill to provide any materials, discuss this with the shop captain that pertains to your class; some items we have in house or can purchase. Make sure to obtain approval from the shop captain and supply a list of what you need in plenty of time to obtain it for your class if appropriate. Decide whether you want students to purchase supplies separately or have that price built into your class costs.

| − | #If your class will use TinkerMill equipment, 50% of the post-expense proceeds will go to TinkerMill and 50% will be paid to the instructor. If your class is using only the TinkerMill building and no TinkerMill equipment, 20% of the post-expense proceeds will go to TinkerMill and 80% will be paid to the instructor.

| − | #You can set payment options. TinkerMill strongly recommends using PayPal for class payments. Payments taken via PayPal will be disbursed to the instructor; there are instructor payment sheets in the office. Have one available at your class to note who is attending and what they pay, then turn it in at the office after your class. You are responsible for ensuring that your students pay for your classes. Instructor payments are typically processed once per month.
