[Shop-talk] Professional Shop Question

[brianlpro]

Many years ago our insurance agent asked us to take photos of our stuff. Fairly easy to do if it’s acceptable and motivation for those of us who don’t always have them stored in an orderly fashion.

I your employer uses one, it likely has a tool inventory module included or optional. That would facilitate documenting what tools are available, location, calibration due dates, assigned owner/user, etc.

We have  a little bit of everything you'd expect to find in a large commercial building:  chillers, boilers, pumps, water loops, miles and miles of conduit, acres of LED lighting, ducts, plumbing of all sorts...  I have a sort of list I'm putting together, but I've been trying to find where someone has already done the work for me.  We are more or less starting from scratch.
