Shop Captains

Each shop at TinkerMill has a Shop Captain or group of Shop Co-Captains responsible for it. Shop Captain duties include:

• Ensuring that the shop is clean, organized, and safe,
• Ensuring that all shop equipment and tools are maintained in good working order,
• Ensuring that all shop equipment and tools are obviously marked with the appropriate shop colors,
• Ensuring that basic introductory classes are held at least once per month,
• Ensuring that tool certification classes are held at least once per month,
• Participating in ongoing communications about the shop with TinkerMill members, other shop captains, and the general public,
• Maintaining an accurate roster of certifications, certification instructors, and certified members for certification-required tools and equipment,
• Maintaining an adequate stock of consumable shop supplies,
• Preparing and following an annual financial budget, and
• Personally attending the monthly Shop Captain/Admin meetings or sending a shop representative.
