A prepared work area is easier to inspect when each setup tool has a defined return location. Put planning guides, hand tools, and personal protective equipment where they can be found without crossing the active work area.
Reset before the next task
After a pause, return loose items to their assigned places and check that the path to controls remains clear. This is a workflow reminder, not a substitute for reading current safety instructions, using suitable protective measures, ventilation, and attended operation.
Keep a short reset checklist near the work area and revisit /updates/ for other preparation ideas.
