'''Important Safety Rules:'''
*Remove any jewelry, roll up sleeves, and otherwise secure anything that could get wrapped up in the machine.
*Position the tool rest as close as possible to the material without colliding.
*After adjusting the tool rest, BEFORE TURNING IT ON spin the workpiece by hand to make sure it will not collide.
*'''Safety eye wear required.''' Faceshields are highly recommended. Safety glasses are okay, but less effective.
*Always use sharp tools! Dull tools cause chip-out, but more importantly can get caught on your material.
*Avoid using materials that may break apart. Split wood, laminated materials, rotted pieces, etc.

'''General Tips'''
*Wear an apron or smock. Turning gets pretty messy.
