A frame saw is a manually operated saw with a narrow, tensioned blade held in a wooden or metal frame. It is useful for making controlled straight or curved cuts in wood.

Befor using make shure the blade is in the right angle an is as hand tight as possible. To tide it, use the wing nut. Use your armlenght or body to cut with the full lenght of the saw. For further insturtions and details watch the following video:

https://youtu.be/OwBniCKXKuw?si=DgQyiU5Ro78rz7zl

== Safety ==

* Keep both hands on the saw frame and maintain a firm, controlled grip.
* Make sure there is sufficient clearance below the workpiece so that the blade cannot hit the workbench or other objects.
* Do not force the saw. Let the teeth do the cutting.
* Keep the saw blade properly tensioned. A loose blade can wander, buckle or break.

== Common Problems ==
'''The blade wanders from the marked line'''

* Check the blade tension. It should be as high as possible
* Make sure the blade is sharp and appropriate for the material.
* Avoid pushing the saw sideways.
* Start the cut slowly and establish a clean kerf before increasing the stroke length.

'''The blade gets stuck'''

* Stop applying force immediately.
* Carefully release the pressure and remove the saw from the kerf if possible.
* Check whether the cut is closing due to internal stresses in the wood.
* Do not twist or force the blade sideways.

== Safety ==
Always follow all safety precautions covered during the [[Stationary Sander Introduction]].

In particular:

* Only sand on the downward-moving side of the disc ('''left side'''). This pushes the workpiece towards the table instead of away from it.
* Keep both hands on the workpiece or jig and apply only light pressure.
* Keep fingers, loose clothing, jewellery and long hair away from the sanding disc.
* Keep the gap between the sanding disc and table as small as possible ('''maximum 2 mm''').
* Always wear safety goggles.
* Use [[Dust Extraction|dust extraction]] when sanding wood and other suitable materials.
* Turn on the [[Air Filters|air filters]] to further reduce dust levels.
* Never leave the machine running unattended.
* Unplug the machine before servicing or changing the sanding disc.

The DS300 has a large, heavy sanding disc and is substantially heavier than the small disc sander on the [[Holzmann BT 203-914]]. Do not underestimate the forces involved when working with larger or awkwardly shaped workpieces.

== Maintenance ==
The machine does not require extensive maintenance. Have malfunctions and defects serviced by trained persons only.

Regular maintenance:

* After each workshift: Remove chips and sanding dust from the machine and surrounding area.
* After every 10 hours of operation: Check all screw connections and tighten them if necessary.
* Sanding disc: Refer to the [https://www.manualslib.de/manual/204488/Record-Power-Ds300.html manual] for instructions on removing and replacing the disc. The table needs to be removed for this on the DS300.

== Sandpaper Cleaning ==
You can often extend the life of sanding discs by briefly sanding a piece of rubber. This removes accumulated dust and fibres from the abrasive surface.

A proper [[Sander Cleaning Stick|sander cleaning stick]] is ideal, but the sole of an old shoe can apparently work surprisingly well, too. Any donors? ;-)

== Notes ==

* The DS300's disc rotates at a relatively low speed compared with the disc on the Holzmann BT 203-914, but its larger diameter and heavy construction provide a very stable sanding surface.
* Move the workpiece across the sanding surface where practical rather than sanding continuously in one spot. This helps distribute wear and heat more evenly.

Neo: formating

A frame saw is a manually operated saw with a narrow, tensioned blade held in a wooden or metal frame. It is useful for making controlled straight or curved cuts in wood.

== Safety ==

* Always make sure the workpiece is '''securely held''' before starting to cut.
* Keep both hands on the saw frame and maintain a firm, controlled grip.
* Keep your fingers and other body parts '''clear of the blade and its path'''.
* Never put your hand in front of or behind the blade while cutting.
* Make sure there is sufficient clearance below the workpiece so that the blade cannot hit the workbench or other objects.
* Do not force the saw. Let the teeth do the cutting.
* Keep the saw blade properly tensioned. A loose blade can wander, buckle or break.
* Do not use a damaged, bent or excessively dull blade.
* Wear safety goggles when there is a risk of flying chips or when working with brittle materials.
* Secure long or awkward workpieces so that they cannot move unexpectedly.
* Keep the workspace clear so that the saw frame can move freely.

== Using the Saw ==

# Secure the workpiece firmly.
# Mark the cut clearly.
# Position the saw so that the blade is aligned with the cut.
# Start with a few '''light, controlled strokes''' to establish the cut.
# Once the blade is tracking properly, use longer strokes while maintaining a steady rhythm.
# Keep the blade approximately perpendicular to the workpiece unless the cut requires another angle.
# Use light pressure on the forward cutting stroke and let the blade return without forcing it.
# For curved cuts, rotate the workpiece or saw gradually rather than twisting the blade sideways.
# Towards the end of the cut, reduce pressure to prevent the workpiece or the remaining material from breaking unexpectedly.

== Blade Selection ==
Use a blade appropriate for the material and type of cut.

* '''Coarser teeth:''' faster cutting and better suited to thicker material.
* '''Finer teeth:''' slower cutting but generally better for thinner material and cleaner cuts.
* Make sure the blade is suitable for the material being cut.
* Replace the blade when it is dull, damaged or no longer cuts cleanly.

== Maintenance ==
The frame saw requires little maintenance.

* Remove sawdust and chips after use.
* Check the blade regularly for damage and excessive wear.
* Check that the blade is properly tensioned.
* Keep the frame, tensioning mechanism and handles clean and dry.
* Do not overtension the blade, as this can damage the frame or blade.

== Storage ==

* Release excessive blade tension if the saw will not be used for an extended period.
* Store the saw in a dry place.
* Protect the blade from impacts and other tools.
* Keep sharp blades away from areas where they could accidentally be grabbed.

== Common Problems ==
'''The blade wanders from the marked line'''

* Check the blade tension.
* Make sure the blade is sharp and appropriate for the material.
* Avoid pushing the saw sideways.
* Start the cut slowly and establish a clean kerf before increasing the stroke length.

'''The cut is difficult or very slow'''

* Check whether the blade is dull.
* Use a coarser or otherwise more suitable blade for thicker material.
* Make sure the blade is properly tensioned.
* Do not compensate for a dull blade by applying excessive force.

'''The blade gets stuck'''

* Stop applying force immediately.
* Carefully release the pressure and remove the saw from the kerf if possible.
* Check whether the cut is closing due to internal stresses in the wood.
* Do not twist or force the blade sideways.

==Demonstration==
The tutor will show you these steps in detail on at least one of the applicable machines:

* belt sanders
** adjusting the sanding belt (tension and "tracking"/direction)
*** when putting on a new belt, make sure you use it in the correct orientation
*** with the machine unpowered, turn the belt by hand (e.g. via the disc sander side). Observe if the belt slides off its track. If it is sliding towards the disc side, turn the tracking knob clockwise, otherwise counter clockwise.
*** make sure the belt is not sliding to either side before operating a combined machine every time, even if you are only using the other side (e.g. disc sander)

* disc sanders
** how to change discs without removing the table: [[:File:sanding disc removal.gif|'''removal''']] / [[:File:sanding disc replacement.gif|'''replacement''']] (disc removal is not possible on the Record Power DS300 without removing the table)
** always position your workpiece on the '''downward pushing''' (BT: right; DS300: left) side of the disc to direct forces towards the table where they can be controlled
** Machine-specific note:
*** On the Holzmann BT 203-914, the disc can be changed without removing the table.
*** On the Record Power DS300, the table must be removed to change the disc.

* spindle sanders
** how to safely attach a sanding sleeve by compressing the rubber spindle end to end (usually with a screw) so it grabs the sleeve from the inside

*adjusting sanding tables/fences
** make sure table inserts or fences do not touch the sanding medium
** always return to exactly 90°, not just the general neighborhood - the next Maker will thank you!

*always clean the machine and its work area with a shop vac after use

== Cleaning after use ==
Always leave the machine and its surroundings clean for the next Maker.

* Remove sanding dust and chips from the machine.
* Vacuum the machine and work area with the appropriate shop vac.
* Do not blow sanding dust around the workshop with compressed air.
* Leave tables, fences and surrounding surfaces clean.
* Report damaged sanding media, unusual noises, tracking problems or other defects to a tutor.

A clean machine is a safer machine — and the next Maker shouldn't have to clean up after you.

*** On the Holzmann BT 203-914, the disc can be changed without removing the table.
*** On the Record Power DS300, the table must be removed to change the disc.

* spindle sanders
** how to safely attach a sanding sleeve by compressing the rubber spindle end to end (usually with a screw) so it grabs the sleeve from the inside

*adjusting sanding tables/fences
** make sure table inserts or fences do not touch the sanding medium
** always return to exactly 90°, not just the general neighborhood - the next Maker will thank you!

*always clean the machine and its work area with a shop vac after use

== Cleaning after use ==
Always leave the machine and its surroundings clean for the next Maker.

* Remove sanding dust and chips from the machine.
* Vacuum the machine and work area with the appropriate shop vac.
* Do not blow sanding dust around the workshop with compressed air.
* Leave tables, fences and surrounding surfaces clean.
* Report damaged sanding media, unusual noises, tracking problems or other defects to a tutor.

A clean machine is a safer machine — and the next Maker shouldn't have to clean up after you.

== Safety ==
Always follow all safety precautions covered during the [[Stationary Sander Introduction]].

In particular:

* Only sand on the downward-moving side of the disc ('''left side'''). This pushes the workpiece towards the table instead of away from it.
* Keep both hands on the workpiece or jig and apply only light pressure.
* Keep fingers, loose clothing, jewellery and long hair away from the sanding disc.
* Keep the gap between the sanding disc and table as small as possible ('''maximum 2 mm''').
* Always wear safety goggles.
* Use dust extraction when sanding wood and other suitable materials.
* Never leave the machine running unattended.
* Unplug the machine before servicing or changing the sanding disc.

The DS300 has a large, heavy sanding disc and is substantially heavier than the small disc sander on the [[Holzmann BT 203-914]]. Do not underestimate the forces involved when working with larger or awkwardly shaped workpieces.

== Maintenance ==
The machine does not require extensive maintenance. Have malfunctions and defects serviced by trained persons only.

Regular maintenance:

* After each workshift: Remove chips and sanding dust from the machine and surrounding area.
* After every 10 hours of operation: Check all screw connections and tighten them if necessary.
* Sanding disc: Refer to the [https://www.manualslib.de/manual/204488/Record-Power-Ds300.html manual] for instructions on removing and replacing the disc. The table needs to be removed for this on the DS300.

== Sandpaper Cleaning ==
You can often extend the life of sanding discs by briefly sanding a piece of rubber against them. This removes accumulated dust and fibres from the abrasive surface.

A proper sanding-belt/disc cleaning stick is ideal, but the sole of an old shoe can apparently work surprisingly well too.

Any donors? ;-)

== Notes ==

* The DS300's disc rotates at a relatively low speed compared with the disc on the Holzmann BT 203-914, but its larger diameter and heavy construction provide a very stable sanding surface.
* Move the workpiece across the sanding surface where practical rather than sanding continuously in one spot. This helps distribute wear and heat more evenly.

*** Kostenlose Workshops für Kinder: Dinos bauen, Kartenspiel designen, Tischtennisschläger bauen, Stempel designen, Schlüsselanhänger basteln
* Für die Holzwerkstatt soll es temporäre Lagerflächen geben. Diese werden gekennzeichnete Flächen unter den Arbeits-/Werktischen. Dort können zukünftig Projekte bis zu max. 2 Wochen lagern, wenn sie einen Parkschein haben. Neo arbeitet das weiter aus. Falls das Konzept gut funktioniert, kann es auf weitere Gewerke ausgebreitet werden.
* Philipp R. erstellt aktuell für alle Räume, Ecken, Geräte und Werkzeuge einheitliche Schilder.
* Die Beleuchtung in der Werkstatt wird aktuell verbessert. Mehr Infos im Issue #404

** Regelmäßiges Saugen des Bodens soll Norm werden
** Kürzere Wege zu den Reinigungstools
* Neue Norm: Die letzten 15 Minuten der Öffnungszeiten werden zum gemeinsamen Aufräumen des Spaces genutzt -> Aufsichtspersonen leiten das ein
** Alle Anwesenden beteiligen sich, auch Schlüsselmitglieder, die anschließend noch bleiben

* Idee: Schilder, wie welcher Bereich nach dem Saubermachen auszusehen hat. Zum Beispiel für den Seminarbereich, die Küche…
* Einiges an Elektromüll hat sich neben sonstigen Müll angesammelt. Neo und Michael G. kümmern sich um die Entsorgung

== AG 2 – Grundriss ==
* Arbeit schließt an der AG 5 vom letzten Treffen an
* Um verschiedene Grundrissentwürfe möglichst objektiv bewerten und vergleichen zu können, wurden zunächst Erfolgskriterien definiert. Aus diesen werden Designprinzipien, Guidelines und Rahmenbedingungen für die weitere Planung abgeleitet
* Neue Grundrisse und Ideen werden im [https://github.com/comakingspace/do-something/issues/433 Issue #433] vorgestellt und diskutiert

==== Erfolgskriterien neuer Grundriss ====
Muss-Kriterien (''Unterpunkt: Messbarkeit'')
* Arbeitsschutz wird vollständig eingehalten
** Gesetzliche Vorgaben, Fluchtwege, Brandschutz, Sicherheitsabstände und Maschinenabstände werden eingehalten
* Gefährdende oder stark störende Tätigkeiten beeinträchtigen andere Arbeitsbereiche möglichst nicht

** Mindestbreiten werden eingehalten und Verkehrswege werden nicht als Lagerfläche genutzt
Soll-Kriterien (''Unterpunkt: Messbarkeit'')
* Thematisch zusammengehörige Gewerke liegen möglichst nah beieinander
** Häufige Material- und Personenwege werden möglichst kurz gehalten
* Flächen werden effizient genutzt
** Kein Bereich nimmt dauerhaft mehr Platz ein als zwingend notwendig. Zusätzlich beanspruchte Flächen können bei Bedarf wieder reduziert oder umgenutzt werden
* Maßnahmen zur Reduzierung gegenseitiger Störungen werden getroffen
** Arbeitsbereiche ermöglichen konzentriertes Arbeiten trotz paralleler Nutzung der Werkstatt
* Die Werkstatt wird möglichst barrierearm gestaltet
** Arbeitsbereiche und wesentliche Infrastruktur sind möglichst barrierearm erreichbar und nutzbar
* Jeder Bereich verfügt – abhängig von seiner Nutzung und Beliebtheit – über ausreichend Arbeitsfläche
** Für typische Arbeitsabläufe steht ausreichend Arbeitsfläche zur Verfügung, ohne andere Bereiche einzuschränken
Kann-Kriterien (''Unterpunkt: Messbarkeit'')
* Für einzelne Gewerke können Erweiterungsflächen vorgesehen werden
** Reservierte oder flexibel nutzbare Flächen sind vorhanden
* Für zukünftige neue Gewerke kann Platz vorgesehen werden
** Freie Flächen oder geeignete Infrastruktur ermöglichen eine spätere Integration

==== Designprinzipien neuer Grundriss ====

* Die Sicherheit von Nutzenden hat Vorrang vor einer möglichst hohen Flächenausnutzung
* Flächen dienen primär der gemeinschaftlichen Nutzung und nicht der dauerhaften Belegung einzelner Personen oder Gewerke
* Arbeitsbereiche mit häufigem Material-, Werkzeug- oder Personenaustausch liegen möglichst nah beieinander
* Lärm-, Staub-, Geruchs- oder Schmutzquellen werden räumlich getrennt oder durch geeignete Maßnahmen abgeschirmt
* Die Struktur der Werkstatt soll leicht verständlich sein, sodass sich auch neue Nutzende schnell orientieren können
* Umbauten sollen möglichst in sinnvollen Etappen erfolgen, ohne den laufenden Werkstattbetrieb unnötig einzuschränken

==== Guidelines neuer Grundriss ====
Wege

* Hauptlaufwege besitzen eine Mindestbreite von 1,20 m
* Laufwege werden gekennzeichnet und dauerhaft freigehalten
* Wo möglich werden zwei voneinander unabhängige Fluchtwege eingeplant
* Häufig genutzte Wege sollen möglichst kurz sein

Arbeitsplätze

* • Damit Nutzende gut arbeiten können, sollen insbesondere folgende Aspekte berücksichtigt werden:
** unterschiedliche oder höhenverstellbare Arbeitshöhen
** gute Beleuchtung
** häufig benötigte Werkzeuge und Materialien in unmittelbarer Nähe
** Maßnahmen zur Verringerung gegenseitiger Störungen

Lagerung

* Gewerke können über einen eigenen Lagerbereich für gewerkespezifische Materialien verfügen und ebenfalls für private Lagerbereich, sofern eine Lagerung nur temporär ist und die Materialien nicht im Lagergang stehen sollten
* Verbrauchsmaterialien sollen möglichst nahe am jeweiligen Einsatzort gelagert werden
* Selten benötigte Materialien werden außerhalb der eigentlichen Arbeitsbereiche gelagert

Weitere Aspekte

* Arbeitsbereiche lassen sich möglichst einfach reinigen
* Maschinen und Einrichtungen können gewartet werden, ohne andere Bereiche unnötig einzuschränken
* Aufsichtspersonen können die relevanten Arbeitsbereiche möglichst gut überblicken

Planung und Umsetzung

* Jede Änderung oder jeder Umbau soll für alle unmittelbar betroffenen Bereiche einen erkennbaren Mehrwert schaffen
* Änderungen sollen möglichst schrittweise umgesetzt werden
* Die Detailplanung der einzelnen Gewerke erfolgt durch die jeweiligen Nutzenden. Dafür soll es für jeden neuen Arbeitsbereich mindestens ein Treffen geben
* Für neue Gewerke werden frühzeitig die notwendigen Rahmenbedingungen berücksichtigt:
** verfügbare Fläche
** Sicherheitsanforderungen
** Elektrik
** Budget

== Action Items ==
* Auf Slack oder Telegram zur Idee mit den Schildern, wie was im aufgeräumten Zustand auszusehen hat, äußern
* Grundrisse im Issue #433 vorstellen und mitdiskutieren

* Für einzelne Gewerke können Erweiterungsflächen vorgesehen werden
* Reservierte oder flexibel nutzbare Flächen sind vorhanden
* Für zukünftige neue Gewerke kann Platz vorgesehen werden
* Freie Flächen oder geeignete Infrastruktur ermöglichen eine spätere Integration

'''Designprinzipien neuer Grundriss'''
• Die Sicherheit von Nutzenden hat Vorrang vor einer möglichst hohen Flächenausnutzung
• Flächen dienen primär der gemeinschaftlichen Nutzung und nicht der dauerhaften Belegung einzelner Personen oder Gewerke
• Arbeitsbereiche mit häufigem Material-, Werkzeug- oder Personenaustausch liegen möglichst nah beieinander
• Lärm-, Staub-, Geruchs- oder Schmutzquellen werden räumlich getrennt oder durch geeignete Maßnahmen abgeschirmt
• Die Struktur der Werkstatt soll leicht verständlich sein, sodass sich auch neue Nutzende schnell orientieren können
• Umbauten sollen möglichst in sinnvollen Etappen erfolgen, ohne den laufenden Werkstattbetrieb unnötig einzuschränken

'''Guidelines neuer Grundriss'''
Wege
• Hauptlaufwege besitzen eine Mindestbreite von 1,20 m
• Laufwege werden gekennzeichnet und dauerhaft freigehalten
• Wo möglich werden zwei voneinander unabhängige Fluchtwege eingeplant
• Häufig genutzte Wege sollen möglichst kurz sein
Arbeitsplätze
• Damit Nutzende gut arbeiten können, sollen insbesondere folgende Aspekte berücksichtigt werden:
o unterschiedliche oder höhenverstellbare Arbeitshöhen
o gute Beleuchtung
o häufig benötigte Werkzeuge und Materialien in unmittelbarer Nähe
o Maßnahmen zur Verringerung gegenseitiger Störungen
Lagerung
• Gewerke können über einen eigenen Lagerbereich für gewerkespezifische Materialien verfügen und ebenfalls für private Lagerbereich, sofern
• Verbrauchsmaterialien sollen möglichst nahe am jeweiligen Einsatzort gelagert werden
• Selten benötigte Materialien werden außerhalb der eigentlichen Arbeitsbereiche gelagert
Weitere Aspekte
• Arbeitsbereiche lassen sich möglichst einfach reinigen
• Maschinen und Einrichtungen können gewartet werden, ohne andere Bereiche unnötig einzuschränken
• Aufsichtspersonen können die relevanten Arbeitsbereiche möglichst gut überblicken
Planung und Umsetzung
• Jede Änderung oder jeder Umbau soll für alle unmittelbar betroffenen Bereiche einen erkennbaren Mehrwert schaffen
• Änderungen sollen möglichst schrittweise umgesetzt werden
• Die Detailplanung der einzelnen Gewerke erfolgt durch die jeweiligen Nutzenden. Dafür soll es für jeden neuen Arbeitsbereich mindestens ein Treffen geben
• Für neue Gewerke werden frühzeitig die notwendigen Rahmenbedingungen berücksichtigt:
o verfügbare Fläche
o Sicherheitsanforderungen
o Elektrik
o Budget

== Action Items
• Auf Slack oder Telegram zur Idee mit den Schildern, wie was im aufgeräumten Zustand auszusehen hat, äußern
• Grundrisse im Issue #433 vorstellen und mitdiskutieren

Waiting Lists

Neo: /* Woodturning Introduction */

An overview of the waiting lists for our [[introductions]] that take more time than the [[tutors]] can usually invest spontaneously.

''If you want to "wait" for a vehicle spot, see [[Vehicle Workspaces|vehicle workspaces]].''

<big>'''How to Use'''</big> Please '''link''' your [[Special:MyPage|user page]] at the bottom of each list you're interested in after you've filled it with enough information to contact you and/or activated "Allow other users to email me" in your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]]!

DO: link yourself for the introductions you need for your project(s)

DO NOT: link yourself for all available introductions just because you might need it at some point in the future - chances are you'll forget something important by the time you actually use the machine!

If a list is full enough and/or you have been waiting for a while, please reach out to the tool's tutors and kindly ask for a date - maybe they've just been too busy, but it could also be that they missed the list filling up and would appreciate the reminder.

Router Table

2026-07-18T12:15:48Z

Neo:

A router table turns a [[Router|handheld router]] into a stationary tool. The router gets attached to the router table upside down in order to enable the workpiece to be fed through the router (thus, it is for a router what a [[Table Saw|table saw]] is for a [[Handheld Circular Saw|handheld circular saw]]).

[[File:Router table feed direction - fence.gif|thumb|push cuts at the fence: right to left!|none]]
[[File:Router table feed direction animation.GIF|thumb|300px|the proper workpiece direction to make push cuts depends on '''which side of the bit you're cutting on!'''|none]]
It is very important to realize that the exposed router bit is not only dangerous because of its sharp edges, but also because it can rip the workpiece out of your hand and let it fly across the workshop, or pull your hand into the danger zone. To make sure that you are in control and not the router, '''ONLY make push cuts''', i.e. '''ONLY feed workpieces through from the right to the left side if you are working in front of the router bit and vice-versa!''' You should understand why this is important after getting the [[Handheld Router Introduction|router introduction]] or reading [https://www.finewoodworking.com/2014/05/07/router-accident-is-a-great-lesson-in-climb-cutting articles about accidental climb cuts] on the internet.

Router Table Introduction

2026-07-18T12:07:34Z

Neo: Hinzufügen weiterer Informationen insb. für die Metabo tf 100 m

This is the content required for an introduction to our [[Introduction for::Router Table|router table]] - '''reading this does NOT replace the mandatory session with a [[tutor]]!''' It will make it a lot quicker though ;-)

If you need this introduction, please reach out to the following tutors: [[Tutor::User:Lukas|Lukas]], [[Tutor::User:NitramLegov|Martin]], [[Tutor::User:Keno|Keno]], [[Tutor::User:Pakue|Patrick]], [[Tutor::User:Utis|Utis]], [[Tutor::User:Luzian|Luzian]], [[Tutor::User:Mobell|Moritz]]

'''The [[Handheld Router Introduction|handheld router introduction]] is required as a background for this introduction!'''

''If you received that introduction before 2020-4-15, it still included the router table part and you only need to make sure you now '''watch both pages for updates.''' And as always: feel free to ask for a refresher whenever anything is not clear anymore!''

When working on a [[Router Table|router table]], '''additional''' care needs to be taken as the router is turned upside down in a fixed position!

= General Safety =
Using a [[router table]] differs significantly from using a [[handheld router]] because the cutting tool is mounted upside down in a fixed position while the workpiece is moved by hand.

Always follow these basic safety rules:

* Always wear safety glasses and hearing protection
* Use a dust extraction system
* Never operate the machine without the installed guards and safety devices
* Ensure the cutter is securely mounted before switching on the machine
* Wait until the cutter has come to a complete stop before making adjustments or removing the workpiece
* Disconnect the machine from the mains before changing cutters or performing maintenance

= Feed Direction =
Correct feed direction is essential for safe operation.[[File:Router table feed direction animation.GIF|thumb|right|300 px|proper feed directions for safe '''push cuts''' - click to see an animation!]]

* '''Always perform conventional (push) cuts'''
* '''Never perform climb cuts''', as the cutter may grab the workpiece and eject it violently
* When feeding the workpiece in front of the cutter, '''always feed from right to left'''
* When working in special setups, make sure you fully understand the cutter rotation and the correct feed direction before starting

= Cutter Diameter and Spindle Speed =
Different cutter diameters require different spindle speeds.

The '''recommended spindle speed table is located on the rear side of the Metabo TF 100 M'''. Always select the operating speed according to this table and never exceed the maximum permissible speed specified by the cutter manufacturer.

Using excessive spindle speeds with large diameter cutters can result in dangerous operating conditions.

==Demonstration==
The tutor will show you in detail how to:
* Adjust and lock the height of the router
* Insert the bit into the router
* Tighten the collet (best through the top of the table)
* Select the correct spindle speed
* Adjust the fence for different routing operations
* Turn the router on and off by using the safety switch of the router table
* Use push sticks, push blocks and the sliding table correctly
* Perform edge routing and groove routin
* Clean the machine after use
* How to properly store the fence '''together with all small parts''' so stuff does not get lost all the time!

= After Use =
After finishing your work:

* Switch off the machine and wait until the cutter has stopped completely
* Disconnect the machine from the power supply if changing tooling
* Remove chips and dust from the table
* Return the fence, guards, push blocks, and all accessories to their designated storage locations
* Report any defects or unusual machine behaviour to a workshop supervisor immediately

----'''Remember:''' If you are unsure about any setup or routing operation, '''stop and ask a tutor for assistance before continuing'''. Safe operation is always more important than completing a project quickly.

* Use push sticks or push blocks whenever appropriate.

=== Tool Diameter and Operating Speed ===
The appropriate spindle speed depends on the diameter and type of the cutting tool used. A reference table with the recommended operating speeds for different tool diameters is located on the rear side of the machine. Always select a spindle speed that matches the installed cutter and never exceed the maximum permissible speed specified by the tool manufacturer.

= Limitations =

* Intended exclusively for woodworking.
* Not suitable for machining metal or plastics unless specifically approved by the tooling manufacturer.
* Large workpieces should be supported using roller stands.
* Only use cutters that comply with the specified dimensions and speed ratings.
* The machine should always be operated with effective dust extraction.

= Known Issues & Possible Workarounds =

=== Dust extraction is insufficient ===
Ensure the extraction hose is properly connected and that the extraction system provides adequate airflow.

=== Tear-out on end grain ===
Use a backing board and sharp cutters to minimize tear-out.

=== Difficult handling of long workpieces ===
Use the sliding table together with roller supports.

=== Rough cutting results ===
Inspect the cutter for wear and replace or sharpen it if necessary.

= Accessories =
Common accessories include:

* Sliding table
* Mitre fence
* Featherboards
* Push sticks
* Push blocks
* Dust extraction adapter
* Roller stands
* Additional fence inserts

Neo: Added paragraph Copy ring

== Makita DRT50 ==
{{MachineInfoBox
|machine name=Makita DRT50
|german=Oberfräsen
|image=Makita-DRT50.jpeg

''Caution: the 8 mm collet needs to be tightened pretty hard because it only has a single compression slot! Use both wrenches forming a "V" to deliver enough force (or switch to 6 mm router bits if you have them). Failure to tighten the collet can result in the bit slipping downward during your cut, ruining your workpiece (and more if you don't notice soon enough)!''

The router has its own box (Makpack) with all its accessories (DRT50RTJX2). It is battery powered with 18V Makita lithium batteries that are shared with our other Makita tools like the [[Cordless Drill|cordless drill]]. The set consists of:
* edge attachments (w/o grips; ''Kantenfräsmodule'')
** straight or adjustable angle
* plunge attachment (with grips; ''Taucheinheit'')
** long grip (can replace one of the stud grips)
* 2x vacuum dust attachment

* edge roller attachment (''Kantenfräsanschlag'') for following edges using bits without a bearing

=== Dust Extraction ===
[[File:Makita router with stolen dust adapter.jpg|thumb|200px|with a redundant adapter from our [[Scroll Saw|scroll saw]], the router can be connected to Festool [[Shop Vacs|shop vacs]]]]

There are two different dust collection pieces, depending on which attachment you're using. Either one will need the black flexible adapter seen in the photo to fit on our [[Shop Vacs|shop vacs]].

=== Additional Upgrades/Accessories ===
==== Freehand Baseplate ====
{{£}} donated a [https://www.holzundleim.de/2020/11/die-makita-grundplatte-mit-doppelgriff/ custom baseplate bought from a local blogger] (holzundleim.de). It should allow for much easier freehand routing!

It is made from [[HPL]] ("Resopal") and can be screwed to the straight edge attachment in place of its small round baseplate. To dive into the workpiece, let the baseplate rest on its rear (straight) side and slowly allow it to tip forward after the router bit reaches full speed.

[[File:wide DRT50 baseplate.jpg|thumb|installed baseplate]]

The grips were [[woodturning|turned]] from [[Scrap Wood|scrap]] ash wood as the original 3D printed ones felt too small. As suggested by the maker, the bottom edges were broken with 120 grit sandpaper to improve its sliding ability.

==== Circle Cutting Jig ====
{{P}} made a 3D printed [[Circle Routing Jig|circle cutting jig]] that is used in combination with the plunge attachment. Cutting range is ~200-720 mm ⌀ (depending on the router bit used).
[[File:Router Circle Jig.jpg|left|frameless|Circle cutting jig]]
 

==== Copy ring ====
With two scruws you can attach a copy ring. We have two different ones. Both have an inner diameter of 14,5 mm. Do not use a bit with a larger diameter than 14 mm. The outer diameters are 16 mm (metal) and 30 mm (3d-printed).

==== Clear Baseplate ====
Installing this baseplate to the plunge attachment gives you stability over large holes without obstructing your view!

= Siglent SDS814X HD Introduction =
This is the content required for an introduction to our [[Siglent SDS814X HD]] digital storage oscilloscope — reading this does NOT replace the mandatory session with a [[tutor]]! It will make the session a lot quicker ;-)

If you need this introduction, please reach out to the electronics tutors via Slack or ask during opening hours. You must have a basic understanding of oscilloscopes and electronics; if you're unfamiliar with oscilloscopes, please read the manual and review basic oscilloscope usage.

Make sure you have read the machine's manual (available in the machine info box) before your introduction.

== Safety ==

=== Personal protection ===

* There is no requirement for eye protection or gloves during normal oscilloscope use. However, handling sensitive electronics requires an **ESD wrist strap** and a static‑safe workstation – this protects both the oscilloscope and your circuit from electrostatic discharge:contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}.

=== Dangers and precautions ===
{| class="wikitable"
!Danger
!Precautions
|-
|Electric shock from hazardous voltages or improper grounding
|
* Always plug the oscilloscope’s three‑pronged power cord into a properly grounded outlet and ensure the device under test shares the same ground:contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}:contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
* Never remove or bypass the ground pin on the power cord:contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.
* When measuring circuits with more than 30 V RMS (>42 V pk) from earth ground, connect the oscilloscope chassis to earth ground using the supplied grounding wire to prevent electrical shock:contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}.
* Do not float the oscilloscope or attempt differential measurements with standard probes at hazardous voltages; use appropriate high‑voltage differential probes to maintain operator safety:contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}.
|}
Apart from the electric shock hazard described above, there are no significant direct injury risks when operating this oscilloscope. The other safety notes in this introduction (e.g. ESD and overdriving inputs) protect the equipment and the device under test, not the operator.

=== Grounding and electrical safety ===

* Always plug the oscilloscope’s three‑pronged power cord into a properly grounded outlet. Properly grounding the oscilloscope protects you from hazardous shock and ensures accurate measurements:contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}.
* The oscilloscope must share the same ground as the circuit you are testing. Do **not** circumvent or remove the ground pin on the power cord:contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}.
* Before connecting probes, set the vertical scale to its maximum setting to avoid overdriving the inputs; never exceed the maximum input voltage specified on the front panel or in the manual:contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}.
* Wear an ESD wrist strap and work on a static‑safe workstation when handling sensitive circuits. Electrostatic discharge can damage oscilloscope inputs and the devices under test:contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}.
* Discharge any coaxial cables or test fixtures before connecting them to the oscilloscope:contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}.
* Keep the oscilloscope’s ventilation openings clear and allow adequate clearance for cooling. Do not cover the ventilation holes:contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}.

=== Handling and maintenance ===

* Use the provided passive probes (Siglent PP510) and inspect connectors for damage. Avoid bending cables or twisting connectors and use the connector savers if available:contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}.
* Perform regular self‑calibration (signal path compensation) when ambient temperature changes by more than 5 °C or at least once per week:contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}.
* Clean the oscilloscope’s connectors and case with appropriate materials (compressed air and isopropyl alcohol) and never allow fluids into the connectors:contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}.
* Transport the oscilloscope carefully using both hands; avoid lifting it by the front panel and use proper packaging when moving or shipping:contentReference[oaicite:15]{index=15}.

== Device overview ==

* **Trigger and decoding:** Digital trigger system with edge, slope, pulse‑width, window, runt, interval, dropout, pattern, video (HDTV), qualified, nth‑edge, delay, and setup/hold triggers:contentReference[oaicite:20]{index=20}. Built‑in serial bus trigger and decoder supports I²C, SPI, UART, CAN and LIN protocols:contentReference[oaicite:21]{index=21}.
* **Display and interfaces:** A 7″ TFT‑LCD capacitive touch screen with 1024 × 600 resolution; supports multi‑touch gestures and can also be controlled via USB keyboard and mouse:contentReference[oaicite:22]{index=22}. Two USB‑A ports allow you to connect storage devices; a rear RJ45 Ethernet port provides remote control via a web browser:contentReference[oaicite:23]{index=23}, and the built‑in web server supports SCPI commands:contentReference[oaicite:24]{index=24}.
* **Analysis tools:** Up to four math traces with 2 Mpt FFT, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, integration, differentiation and square‑root; search and navigate functions; history waveform recording; mask test with user‑defined masks; bode plot and power analysis:contentReference[oaicite:25]{index=25}.
* **Optional features:** Sixteen digital channels (via the SDS800XHD‑16LA logic probe and option):contentReference[oaicite:26]{index=26} and a one‑channel 25 MHz arbitrary waveform generator module:contentReference[oaicite:27]{index=27}.

== Getting started ==
Your tutor will demonstrate each of the following steps. Read through them ahead of time to familiarise yourself with the process and reduce the time needed for your introduction.

=== Preparation and power‑up ===

# **Ground yourself and the instrument.** Plug the oscilloscope into a grounded outlet and wear an ESD strap. Ensure the instrument shares ground with the device under test:contentReference[oaicite:28]{index=28}.
# **Power on.** Use the front‑panel power switch to turn on the oscilloscope. Allow the device to boot and complete its self‑test.
# **Reset or default setup.** Press the DEFAULT or AUTOSET button to restore the oscilloscope to a known configuration (if available):contentReference[oaicite:29]{index=29}. This ensures standard settings for controls and avoids unexpected behaviour.
# **Self‑calibration.** Navigate to the Utilities menu and run “Self‑Cal” or “Signal Path Compensation.” This calibrates the analog channels for accurate measurements:contentReference[oaicite:30]{index=30}.

=== Connecting and compensating probes ===

# **Select the channel and vertical scale.** Press the CH 1 button to enable channel 1. Set the volts/div knob and the vertical position to mid‑range:contentReference[oaicite:31]{index=31}.
# **Attach the probe.** Connect the passive probe’s BNC connector to the channel input. Attach the ground lead clip to a known ground on the oscilloscope or reference terminal:contentReference[oaicite:32]{index=32}.
# **Compensate the probe.** Connect the probe tip to the scope’s built‑in square‑wave reference output. Adjust the probe’s compensation capacitor until the displayed square wave has flat tops and bottoms:contentReference[oaicite:33]{index=33}. Repeat this for each channel.

=== Basic measurements ===

* **Time base and triggering:** Adjust the horizontal time/div knob to set the time scale; adjust the trigger level and trigger mode (Auto, Normal, Single) as needed:contentReference[oaicite:34]{index=34}. For repetitive signals, AUTOSET can help to automatically adjust time base, vertical scale and trigger.
* **Voltage measurements:** Use the cursors or built‑in measurement functions to display peak‑to‑peak voltage, RMS voltage, frequency and other parameters:contentReference[oaicite:35]{index=35}.
* **Multiple channels:** Enable additional channels (CH 2–CH 4) to compare signals and measure phase differences or timing relationships. Use the Math menu to subtract signals or calculate FFTs:contentReference[oaicite:36]{index=36}.
* **Digital channels and serial decoding (optional):** If the logic‑analyzer module is installed, use the digital inputs to capture up to 16 logic channels and decode I²C, SPI, UART, CAN or LIN protocols:contentReference[oaicite:37]{index=37}. The Serial menu allows you to assign channels and view decoded data.

=== Saving and exporting data ===

* Insert a USB flash drive into one of the front USB ports. Use the Save/Recall menu to save waveform snapshots, setups or CSV data for further analysis.
* For remote operation, connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port. Open a web browser and enter the oscilloscope’s IP address to access the built‑in web server, which allows live control, screen capture and file transfers:contentReference[oaicite:38]{index=38}.
* For automation, use SCPI commands over USB or LAN. A programming guide and examples are available on Siglent’s website:contentReference[oaicite:39]{index=39}.

== Demonstration ==
During your introduction, the tutor will guide you through:

* **Operating the front panel:** Navigating menus via the touch screen and knobs, selecting channels and adjusting vertical/horizontal scales.
* **Using triggers:** Setting edge, pulse width and other trigger types to capture stable waveforms.
* **Performing measurements:** Using automatic measurement functions, cursors and math operations.
* **Serial decoding and logic analysis:** Setting up the digital channels (if available), assigning thresholds and interpreting decoded data.
* **Remote control and data export:** Accessing the web interface, saving screenshots and exporting waveforms.

Feel free to ask questions, try different signals and explore the scope’s menus. Understanding the controls and features will help you use the oscilloscope effectively and avoid damaging it or your circuits.
