Safety

Before you take the safety quiz, take some time to review the shop's safety rules. Obey these rules at all times whenever you are in the shop, for the safety of both yourself and others. The most valuable things in the shop are humans. If you cannot use the shop safely, do not use it at all.

You must pass the Safety Quiz prior to working in the HMC Machine Shop. You should receive immediate notification of whether or not you passed. Remember that safety tests are only good for a calendar year. Working without a valid safety test is an Honor Code violation.

Although the shop can be a lot of fun, it can also be quite dangerous. To that end, we would like to remind you to:

  • Think ahead

  • Use common sense

  • Do not trust machines

  • Always wear safety glasses

  • Pay attention to what you are doing
