		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;added meeting notes 2016.12.20&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Future unrelated TODOs ==&lt;br /&gt;
Fix the plywood material list to include indoors versus outdoors grade. Outdoor grade has a problem.  How do people easily buy the right one?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe we need some more guidance on how to change power and speed.  Maybe a reasonable amount that you can change the speed and power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Follow up ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All - Finish and publish the &amp;quot;new training&amp;quot; section in a &amp;quot;Laser Training&amp;quot; wiki page: https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Laser_Training&lt;br /&gt;
Darryl - Make the standard training .rld file and publish as gist / link on wiki (from new laser training)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Remove most non-safety training material from the training plan.&lt;br /&gt;
# Trim the training to the minimum amount that people can learn to safely use the laser.&lt;br /&gt;
# Reduce the amount of &amp;#039;computer use&amp;#039; during the training.&lt;br /&gt;
## Training should no longer include &amp;#039;creating your .rld file&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Open Questions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Can we totally remove the workflow from the training and still discuss each safety step?&lt;br /&gt;
- No!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How do we train right now? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Darryl: I go through the main workflow in the laser manual: https://noisebridge.net/wiki/Laser_Manual#Workflows&lt;br /&gt;
Ruth: I use the training that I posted on the slack channel: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cHyqeN5BDNAb-hnAI7YQzqRtgbAzb6NoUe4fp9R0OiU/edit?usp=sharing&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How long does training take right now? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Darryl - 30 minutes per person not including safety&lt;br /&gt;
*Ruth - 90 minutes for a class of 5&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What factors impact training speed? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* If people are computer savvy, it is much faster.&lt;br /&gt;
* If people are not computer savvy, it is much slower.&lt;br /&gt;
* Power users are fast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Fire incidents ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We have evidence that fires can happen!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Ruth has set one fire with the 20mm pine (after the power limit increase from 55 to 100)&lt;br /&gt;
* Darryl has set no fires and heard of no fires&lt;br /&gt;
* Trent has set no fires and heard of no fires&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
