We take shop safety seriously and we expect our members to as well.

Once you become a Shop Access Member, you must attend a safety orientation prior to scheduling shop time. Please do not book time in the shop before participating in a safety orientation.

Shop Access Members can sign up for a safety orientation via the calendar. These typically last two hours as we review the operation and safety of each piece of equipment in the shop. Please also print and sign the Liability Waiver and bring it to the safety orientation.

If you have questions about this process, please email us at safety@astoriawoodworkers.org.
