Overview

Many tools in both Makersmiths locations require Red Tool Training.

  • Red training required - These are tools that can seriously injure the operator including amputation or death or expensive tool repair it miss-used or used without training.  The red tool class will be held monthly and is a 2-hour class covering safe operation.  If you want to use a red tool without training, you must contact a red tool trained person from the list below to assist.  This list will be kept up to date as more people become certified.
