Tool Tags are used to mark the large machinery that requires a safety checkout. These tags will help identify some important features of the equipment, like the wiki page where the manual and safety training videos are located, and any brief reminders of important rules for the tool.


The basic steps for each tag should be:

  1. Pick a tool from the main List of Tools on the member wiki that doesn't have a sticker
  2. Create a new Tool Tag based on this template
  3. Fill in information on the tag based on what is on the Member Wiki
  4. Determine where the tag can be placed on the machine and the size it can be
  5. Add the file to the Tool Signs folder on google drive (you can see some examples there)
  6. Print and laminate it using the shop's printers and laminator
  7. Attach it to the tool
