A lathe is a useful tool that rotates the a piece about an axis of rotation to perform cutting, sanding, drilling, facing, and turning, with tools that are applied to the subject object to provide symmetrical tooling to said object. The use of a lathe presents certain hazards to the machine operator as the device rotates quickly, may use sharp or hazardous tools or bits to shape the workpiece, and may have pieces that appendages can easily be caught by. This app helps lathe operators by noting all job steps, each task within each step, and the potential hazards that can impact the safety and health of the lathe operator. Once a risk assessment is performed, risk mitigation strategies and hazard controls can be implemented. The app focuses on a primary hazard control which is the use of PPE, or personal protective equipment. Using eye protection, hand protection, breathing protection, and hearing protection may help protect lathe operators from some of the most common hazards such as splinters, wood dust, and more. This app is useful as a part of a company's safe work initiatives that can be put in place to promote the health and safety of workers.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
