AOB: Russell: the issue with the Tig and the laser cutter. the tig's operation resets the rfid on the laser cutter so both cannot be used at once. Relevant people are looking to fix it, but really any help or insight needed and appreciated.
Request that you put the sign up when welding to stop people booking the laser cutter at the moment
Option may be to create a booking system for the welding that blocks out the laser cutter at the same time
Request that Rob can please place an item with the software team to look at developing this system
