A. You may use the [[Table Saw]] however only if you are partnered with someone who is inside the space, it is against the rules to use the tools marked as such solo.

If any tool is deemed too dangerous to use (due to maintenance of safety) during COVID measures it will be turned off and marked and noted here.
