-Though largely irrelevant to what I do at the space, my day job is as Industrial Chemist working in Hazardous Waste Management (formerly Oil and Gas).
+I have been around for a while now, although latterly I have not been around for a while now.
-Previously worked for sawmill and related in a joiners shop before uni; accordingly I'm reasonably capable at woodwork, wood machining, setting/fettling machines and sharpening saw blades. Unsurprisingly, I amassed a fairly compete set of joinery tools, and if you need a specific tool for a job I'm happy to lend many of them out to members.

-I've become versed in metalwork/engineering including a variety of machining operations, heat treatment, forging, metal punching and pattern-making; through both projects at the space and working with the Engineering team at Elsecar Heritage Railway, it wasn't as inaccessible as I thought either.
-I also loaned the space a [[Planer_Thicknesser|Planer-Thicknesser]]; repaired, donated and installed the Radial Arm Saw; and started the pledge for, collected and installed the [[Sagar_Chisel_Mortiser|Hollow Chisel Mortiser]]. If any of those are going wrong feel free to pester me and I'll do something about it.
-I'm an active (perhaps annoyingly so) member of the Safety, Woodworking, Metalworking and Tools Teams, and the Inductor for the Planer-Thicknesser.
