Misc. and Consumables

There is a toolchest and a cabinet within the Metal Shop to contain various equipment, supplies, consumables, and maintenance tools.
024 Toolbox.jpg
The toolchest generally contains small consumables (e.g. MIG tips, Plasma tips, Tig cups, etc.) and tools (e.g. box end wrenches, MIG pliers, etc.).
022 Supplies cab.jpg
The cabinet generally contains larger supplies (e.g. spools of MIG wire, filler rod, etc.) and some smaller equipment (e.g. spot welder, welding helmets, etc.).

There are also shelves hanging on the far wall with the most often used equipment/supplies.
