Charges
The charge for a session is £50, which will be used to help maintain these machines (this maintenance is surprisingly expensive, and induction money goes a long way towards that maintenance). Discounts are available for those who find this difficult to pay – please ask your trainer if this applies to you.
PAYMENTS CAN BE MADE IN CASH ON THE DAY ONLY at current

Notes:
35
In general if you are beginning in machining we recommend starting with the lathe - this tool is really at the heart of most machining operations and understanding how to cut on it is key to understanding other machines such as the mill. If you are more experienced then you can start with whichever machine best suits your project needs

37
Members who have been on the waiting list for more than 6 months without taking up the offer of a training slot will be removed from the list - this is because a long waiting list sometimes puts off new members as it looks like they will have a very long wait for training. If there's been a particular reason for the absence (e.g. been out of London for a while) then this can easily be extended. And members are more than welcome to re-add themselves to the bottom of the list if they want to later on
