The Design and Build Lab is a working laboratory; as such, proper safety precautions should be taken to ensure a safe and productive working environment. '''The most important point rule to remember is: if you don't know what a particular tool is, or don't know how to use a tool, don't use it; ask a [[Creative and Technical Specialist ]] for help.''' This is an educational space; CaTS are on duty explicitly to answer your questions and help you learn.
== Equipment dangers ==
The following list covers all general equipment within DaBL. Any dangers specific to a particular workstation (e.g. 3D printer, Electronics station) will be covered in that equipment's [[List of workshops#Certifications|certification workshop]].
Equipment dangers typically fall into five categories

Any tool which created particles (any tool which 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.
