Powder coat training/authorization

Hi I’m just making this post to see if we can get another authorization going for the powder coat and maybe one for the cnc plasma. From reading the wiki i can also show proof of abilities with other items and test out of those areas? I’m scheduled to take a metalshop safety class on 4/9. I assume @rustin.atkeisson is who I’m needing?

I would love a class on power coating. I have a good idea how to do it but would just feel better about it if I had someone shown me.

@ladeana is this something you can help with and find a teacher for the class? It seems like this is a hard class to get going, id be willing to teach it after taking the class and doing a few projects. I assume most of the class is safety,properly operating the equipment and cleaning up. I’ve watch a few hours of videos on youtube and have a good understanding but still need authorization to use the station.

I have a large amount of decoration i was going to donate to the garden area after i experiment with powder coating

John Miranda and Rustin typically do the powder coating classes. I would coordinate with them. Typically the end of the month will have fewer classes showing as most instructors that do a lot of classes will put them on the calendar at the first of the month. I bet they would be happy to have another instructor in @Metalshop

@Pinbot The easy bake oven was down for a few weeks, so that probably played a role in why no new classes were scheduled during that time. It is back up and running now.

Also, FYI, there is a CNC plasma class scheduled for this evening.
