And hopefully you. We want as many people available to do Tier 1 certification as we can get. The idea is to promote safety, and get people used to the sounds that a machine tool cutting well makes. Ed has a script that he's working on, and will make available. If you're confident you know how to use the tier 1 tools well, the test is to teach the certification to one of the people who already is a Tier 1 Certifier. | And hopefully you.

In the cold metals area we have grouped together authorizations on the | |||
non-precision cutting tools into a single authorization called "Tier 1". | |||
Those tools are the drill press, horizontal bandsaw, bench grinder, and | |||
combination belt/disk sander. The session covers basic operation and safety | |||
on the machines. Tier 1 is a required for authorization on the Clausing | |||
metal lathe or Bridgeport milling machine (Tier 2). Sessions meet on | |||
an irregular but hopefully frequent basis. Each session can accommodate | |||
from one to three people. | |||
