Mostly equipment. See Replenishment Requests for consumables and other things we had, but now need again, and the wishlist for things we want but expect to have to buy.

Misc

  • Carpet (about 3.5*3m square)

Tools

  • TIG Welder
  • Pillar drills
  • Spray / sandblasting booth. We could probably make one, if someone wished to volunteer. (See section below)

Equipment

  • Kiln and potter's wheel
  • A gas oven would be handy. Ours has lost temperature regulation in the main oven; it's gas mark 11 or bust.
  • Additional kitchen equipment, especially a masher. Needed more for brewing than cooking currently!
  • Brewing equipment, namely a bottle tree
  • Graphics cards - RAM quantity is more important than speed.

  • Electrical hand tools and test equipment
  • Helping hands


Things we can build

And as always...

  • Wood of almost any calibre
  • Hackable & useful junk / components for the communal stockpiles. ( “To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.” --Thomas Edison )
