Added a little to every danger case and PPE
===Sharp and Blunt Things===
Tools like saws, box cutters, and drill bits are sharp and have to potential to cut you. Tools like hammers and pry bars are blunt and have the potential to smash you. Always put away sharp instruments when not in use even if the blade is retracted.
===Hot Things===
Tools like soldering irons are hot enough to cause serious burns. When using something that is hot, ensure that it is off when not in use. Make sure everyone in the space is alert when using the heat press, as a large hot face can hurt someone easily.
===Bright Things===
===Particulating Things===
Any tool which created particles (i.e. "particulates" material) has the potential to throw those particles into your eyes and throat. Please use the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at all times when operating equipment which particulates. Machines that creates particles in an enclosed space, such as the laser cutter and PCB Mill, should have the appropriate vacuum system turned on when in use. Instruments that create particles more freely, such as a drill, require regular clean up.
