• Follow all shop safety protocols including proper PPE use (welding helmet, leather gloves, safety glasses, steel-toed boots), fire watch procedures, ventilation requirements, and safe material handling practices.
• Conduct thorough quality control inspections on all fabricated and repaired features to verify structural integrity, weld quality, smooth sliding surfaces, and safe mounting hardware before features are deployed on the mountain.
