Peter, I like your thinking and offering a solution. Our group, and those who will be checked out, will be of a sufficient size that we will know and be able to monitor who is capable of using the tools I imagine.
As we scale up though your solution would be one we would look at. It would have to have a champion to drive the effort as it is with any aspect related to a makers pace person makes things happen.
Access cards to rooms is fairly easy. Heavy power tools will be in one room only. So you just restrict access to that room.

True once you set up cards it should be easy
Peter,
You up for leading this committee. I'm willing to help.

I think if you just separate the room and put rfid card system combined with cameras, the problem is solved. To get access to the room you would need to be trained on all the tools inside
All heavy tools will be in specific room any way.
Pete,
Agreed on the large work area needed. Cramped work areas are unsafe, and a non-starter. We're going to have to work within affordability constraints. I like the shared work area and locking out specific tools. More administrative burden, but better use of shared resources.

Dusty tools will be 1st floor and/or container until we get dust collection and space downstairs.

I would be interested in building froth filter.
The issue the landlords have with indoor "dusty" tools is Fire Code compliance with dust control. We will have safety concerns that exceed their concerns.
Space has room for containers and we can run power.
We will have storage space available. Initially limited, but option to grow with demand and more income.
We don't have 220 in our areas, yet. But can work that out. Just expertise and funds to support install, inspection, space reqts.
I'm good with Pete as champion.
We have a few folks working into 3d printing leadership roles. That's a separate thread.
Containers are like gold I wouldn't just sell it. I would keep it. Often times it can be impossible to purchase a container aluminum or steel they are somewhat rare

It is a steel container I would be willing to purchase another one. Aluminium and have it modified to be better suited to a shop side rolling doors if I had a place with power available, at a better rental rate. I would be willing to share the use of the tools inside if the maker space would not be able to have them inside. I will be attending meetings now that I'm on the Island.

Are you could pay 400 to have it delivered to Wailuku....
there was some discussion at the Arduino meetup Friday about how to grant selective permissions to power tools based on Membership and Skill/training
The group is supposed to be makers & hackers. A possible solution would be to issue membership cards with an RFID tag embedded. Build an Arduino based power control box for each special tool. Not a real physical challenge just need a power contactor in a locked metal box like used to fuse spas. The power cord for the tool would be hard wired to the box the box would be a plug to the wall . On/off of the tool would be at the tool. The Arduino would be inside the box powered by a strategy like PoE only lower voltage
The Arduino would be flashed with RFID tags that are allowed to power the tool.
Each station would have its own local copy of the current access data for permission to run. It could be re flashed at any time based on member status.
The system would store user, date, time on, time off. The enable switch could be industrial sized with a large red off button latch type this would be an emergency stop.
A similar box could be made to access other locked tools and supplies
Pete

The E-mon solution that Ross suggested looks interesting. It submeters, without MECO. It also gives the landlord options for acquiring new tenants and submetering them. Requires an electrician for install.
We won't do major mods without a long-term lease.

Good enough to give a rough estimate
