Welcome to Wood Shop Safety Website:

Welcome!

Welcome to the Woodshop Safety for students web site. This site was developed to help you learn how to protect yourself from different hazards that you will encounter as you begin working in the shop at your school. It is important to remember that the information that is covered in this web site applies to you when you even if you are working with tools at your own house, or are helping someone out with a building project. Where to Begin We have divided the site into two sections. One section covers health and safety information that applies to wood shops. The other section covers how to work safely with different tools that you will likely find and work with in your shop. First you will need to learn about the health hazards and safety hazards that you encounter if you spend time in a wood shop. After you have gone through this part of the web site then you can move on to the tool safety section.
