sorry being a thicko, so your assignment is of the care & maintenance of tools and work area, yes???

yes it is.

hi gill hope this helps we had to do underpinning knowledge ie; scissors...sharpen when blunt
knife.......keep in container,dont let it rust
secatures.......keep lock on,dont get rusty
wires.............keep in the tubes
glue gun..........keep away from water
dont know if this is what you meant!hope it helps

Here's some of my notes - most of it common sense:

Scissors - keep clean, keep sharp
Glue gun - let it cool before storing (that's more health/safety I think); protect the surface its being used on;keep away from water
Wires - keep dry to avoid rusting, store upright in jars for easy access
Tapes - keep dry, dust free
Foam - store in cool, dry place. Browns after a while and may not soak water as well. Don't store high up (H/s)
String/florist twine - store in water tight container

Also detailed in my college work was, always keep floor clean, dry and free from mess (yeah right!!!! )
Keep work surfaces disinfected regularly.
Keep hazardous substances/chemicals stored appropriately.
Keep tools sharp and dry after use to avoid rust.

Most of this is health and safety kinda stuff but i hope it helps
