Details of ISSUE or REQUEST (Please be as specific as possible):
The drive chain in the thickness planer (blue) is broken. A chain pin failed. It may be fixable in the shop, or we may have to order a new chain.

Please remember that VOLUNTEERS will be helping to resolve this issue. While everyone works very hard to fix things quickly, sometimes things take time. Please consider Volunteering to help keep everything working well in our makerspace!

The Powermatic planer works and may be used just like the other thickness planer.

A replacement chain has been ordered, and the blue planer should be running again by Saturday.

The Grizzly is back in service, minor repairs completed.
