Safety	Poor Is a danger to himself/herself and those around him. Does not observe basic safety rules. Attempts to work while impaired	Fair A potential hazard to work around. Observes safety rules some of the time -- when it is convenient.	Average Observes safety rules most of the time but not all of the time. Shows no concern for the safety of others.	Good Observes safety rules for his/her self only.	Excellent Constantly aware of his/her responsibilites to himself/herself and others. Encourages others to do the same.

Fair Has some understanding of proper tool use and care. Sometime puts tools away. Sometimes asks about proper procedures if he/she does not understand. Misuses tools.	Average Has a good understanding of proper tool usage, and usually meets expectations. Misuses tools occasionally due to laziness not lack of understanding	Good Has a good understanding of procedures and proper tool use.	Excellent Fully understands procedures and always meets expectations. Helps others to improve correct tool usage.
Fabrication fundamentals	Poor Does not follow plans, procedures or directions. Does not use lay-out tools or measuring instruments correctly. Cannot perform basic shop math as it relates to project lay -out. Never de-burrs parts or radius's edges/corners.	Fair Shows some understanding of lay-out and measuring tools. Consistently has others "help" rather than reading the directions or doing the math themselves. Work is within 1/8 of tolerances	Average Has an average understanding of procedures and is almost always within tolerance of measurements. with 3 or less areas outside of 1/16th tolerances.	Good Shows understanding of lay-out and fabrication skills. Produces work within tolerances per drawing.	Excellent Fully understands procedures and is always accurate with measurements. Is capable of designing and layout of pieces without prints. Can reverse engineer parts for fabrication
Quality Control	Poor Has absolutely no interest in working hard to do the best job. Wastes material. Will not take time to think things through or prototype.	Fair Not very particular with how the product looks or how well it functions. Does only what is absolutely necessary. Does not pay attention to details.	Average Turns in a finished and functional product at the end of fabrication. Will leave items out even though there is time to correct.	Good Turns in a fully finished project on time and with in tolerances. Completes work to called out finish tolerances.	Excellent Takes pride in his/her work. Keeps trying working until problems are figured out and the desired results are achieved. Pays attention to the small details. Does not turn in work until it is RIGHT
Material Control	Poor Material are wasted, no proper planning on materials usage and planning. Throws away usable materials materials rather than doing the work to correct or reuse the material	Fair Shows little planning of materials usage. Wastes materials because of inability to follow direction/ read prints	Average Plans material usage but lack of attention to detail cause for material waste. Demonstrates average material planning ability	Good Minimal material wastage. Good material planning skills. attention to detail allows for best material use.	Excellent Material are used to maximum capacity and proper planning of materials. Actively looks for ways to reduce material waste and re-use as much as possible
Weld Quality	Poor Welds are completely unacceptable.	Fair Welds are of poor quality and show operators inability to set welding machine, read weld beads and make according adjustments. Welder clearly made no attempt to correct issues with welds.	Average Welds are of average quality and appearance. Taken as a whole there are 6 or more weld discontinuities visible on the completed project. Welder clearly attempted to correct issues with welds to best of his/her ability	Good Weld are of good quality. Taken as a whole there are 3 or less weld discontinuities visible on the completed project.	Excellent Welds are impeccable. Project has no discontinuities. Outstanding craft personship on display.
Completed Project	Poor Project not completed on time. Is of such poor quality it should have just been thrown away	Fair Project turned in but is more than 25% incomplete. Project looks unfinished, no care was taken to present a quality end product	Average Completed project turned in on time but with glaring omissions as welder was clearly rushed to complete work on time.	Good Completed project turned in on time. Care was taken to finish project to called out standards	Excellent Completed project turned on time or early. Highest quality workman ship is shown in finished project.
