ADC Workshop
You are reminded of the CUADC Wiki's general disclaimer.
The ADC workshop is where the bulk of sets for ADC shows are built. Some external shows also build and store their sets there – this is subject to a charge.
Keep the workshop as tidy and organised as possible – it benefits everyone! If you have a particularly messy get-in, get-out or build session try to find some time afterwards to restore things to their correct locations.
The workshop is covered by a variety of rules which are detailed on notices on the front door and behind the mitre saw, or may be obtained from management on request.
Tools
The workshop contains a variety of tools. Their use is subject to ADC policy which supersedes anything here; however at the time of writing all hand tools may be used by anyone, a short list of power tools may also be used by anyone, and all other power tools require training by the ADC management before use. However, you should of course seek guidance before using tools you are unfamiliar with.
"Personal tools" are owned by students, societies or alumni; these are indicated with two colours of LX tape somewhere on the tool. You should seek permission from the owner of the tool before using it, and if you damage a personal tool try to contact the owner and have your show fund a replacement. If you would like a tool code, see the list in the workshop or at the ADC website, and email technical@adctheatre.com to request it.
Hardware
A large stock of hardware is kept in the workshop; small shows should be able to make use of the wheels, brakes, hinges, handles and other items without needing to buy their own. (Some of these can be surprisingly expensive!) If possible, put these items back where you found them when you have finished. There is a small stock of consumables such as screws and drill bits freely available but most shows with significant set will have to buy their own, e.g. from sundries.
Wood storage
Space is provided in the workshop to store wood, both wood that is owned by a specific show and "gash" wood that has been left over by shows and is now freely available. There are two racks: entering from the yard, then immediately turning left, the strip wood racks are on your right and sheet wood to the left. Both of these contain a gash rack that is dedicated to spare wood rather than a specific production.
While you should not put gash wood containing screws into the racks, be aware when taking from the racks that someone else might have done – take care!
