| 03/15/2025 | Jerry Mackelburg | Corrected the 30A circuit breaker labeling in Panel E to match the 12AWG 4 Conductor power drop currently connected to the saw. (Maybe that drop is a better choice for the 16″ jointer with a 20A breaker?) | Band Saw 16 Inch Laguna (M1) | 2,345 | |

| 03/01/2025 | Jerry Mackelburg | Before the 2:00PM shift today the rightmost drum was overflowing and leftmost was less than 1/2 full. Maybe one of the fullness sensors (like the amber ~1/2 full sensor) should be relocated to the right drum? Some people may not realize that they are infrared sensors and would probably work better if their lenses were wiped off before closing the drum lids? Wouldn't mounting casters to the bottom of each drum make life easier and less problematic than the current cart? | Dust Collector 7.5 HP Oneida (M14) | 2,316 | |

| 02/23/2025 | Nels Lundgren | Top Ceramic guide needs adjusting. The blade is touching the left side of the ceramic guide and the right side is a gap. It's evident that the blade is touching the guide, when raising and lowering the blade guard. The blade moves up and down with the guard.
