Note
The initial contents and any changes to this page need to be discussed and agreed at a members meeting - and the changes and agreements (ie members meeting dates for most changes) documented in the discussion page. This page is expected to be discussed at the Jan 2023 members meeting.
Inductions
Inductions are required for certain tools at the hackspace.
Inductions are mentioned in the Hackspace guide at https://guide.nottinghack.org.uk/tools.html?highlight=inductions#inductions
and in the Hackspace rules at https://rules.nottinghack.org.uk/en/latest/do-not-be-on-fire.html?highlight=inductions
What is an induction?
An induction involves being shown how to use a tool safely and without damaging the tool. Most inductions are carried out at the space. Metalwork inductions are done at West Notts College.
The inductee should use the tool in question during the induction to demonstrate they can use it safely.
While an induction includes the tools features, inductions are not for advanced knowledge transfer. Describing the features and pointing to YouTube videos is sufficient for an induction.
We encourage members to share knowledge in workshops
The Hackspace currently (2022) has inductions on the following tools

Induction Costs
Inductions at the space that are paid for cost £20 per person. This is split 50/50 between to space and the inductor.
Some inductions, usually shorter 'safety' inductions are free.
All inductions at the space are carried out by Hackspace members.
Metalwork inductions are done at West Notts College by staff from the college. Payment for these goes to West Notts College.
Safety Inductions
Safety inductions are usually to
- Point out fire safety procedures
- Point out the specific operation of tools in the space
- Point out difference between West Notts College tools and the ones at the space
Metalwork Inductions
Metalwork inductions are currently in two parts. A session at West Notts College must be followed by a Safety Induction in the Hackspace BEFORE a tool can be used.
