Basic Training encompasses the following topics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Shop safety protocols<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interpreting drawings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hand tools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Powered hand tools<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Students must pass an online quiz to receive their certification. Uncertified students will not be permitted to book machines or borrow tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Register for Basic Training <a href=\"https:\/\/brightspace.carleton.ca\/d2l\/home\/176427\">here<\/a>, or by searching for \u201cMAE and EDC Shop and Lab Training\u201d on the <a href=\"https:\/\/brightspace.carleton.ca\/d2l\/le\/discovery\/view\/\">Brightspace Discover page<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"using-advanced-tools-and-machines\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using Advanced Tools and Machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For students who require the usage of more advanced tools for their projects. The following items are considered in this category:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Angle Grinders<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Drill Presses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Band Saws<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mills<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lathes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Welding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When submitting a job on QReserve, students have the option of selecting \u201cMyself\u201d in the \u201cManufacturer\u201d tab of the job submission form. This informs the staff that the student would like to work alongside a machinist during the manufacturing process. Once a student\u2019s submission is approved, a \u201cproject\u201d is created within QReserve where students should post their availability in the \u201cNotes\u201d section. This allows for easy coordination with a machinist. Information on using advanced tools and machimes also becomes automatically available after completing the Basic Training Brightspace course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering offers training to students who wish to use the shop\u2019s tools and equipment to manufacture their parts on their own.
