Re: Industrial Safety Award

3081 won Industrial Safety last year. Here's how.

After the 2014 season, we did an analysis of how people were injured during the build season and what behaviors were causing the injuries. The result of the analysis was that we had inadequate workholding in our shop, which is the school's wood shop.

We designed and build three vise* units -- one for the standing drill press table, and two that clamp into wood vises -- that allowed us a convenient means to achieve 100% vise workholding.

We then wrote a report -- it was three pages long, black and white, with a couple photos -- and our safety captain went to other team's pits and told the story, giving the teams a handout.

* corrected per this
