Re: Weekly Equipment Inspection
Aside from what's already been suggested...
For consumables (blades, bits, sandpaper, etc), it might be helpful to have a chart showing what those components look like when they are sufficiently worn out and need to be replaced. Use pictures to show "this is what a brand new blade looks like", "this is what a used, but acceptable blade looks like", and "this blade needs to be replaced ASAP". Hang the charts next to the equipment for easy reference. Not only are worn out components not doing their job correctly, they're also a safety hazard.
