This page is a hybrid of the old Council Grant page, which was mainly core items for about £2k, and the current/Lottery Grant wishlist, which is more optimistic and includes infrastructure. Once Things have Settled, the Wishlist can then be reconfigured, taking any recent developments into account.

Notes:

Page Intent

(The items linked here are probably the lowest available price, but due to the quantity of data I've been digging through I cannot do exhaustive searches on everything so this is not currently certain.)

Where possible, tools are emphasised over materials. The idea is to increase the range of our abilities, via either new avenues or extending capabilities of current equipment. The table has delusions of being a spreadsheet and does almost clever things. Edit carefully if you have to!

Awaiting input

Lathe tools. At the least, a roughing gouge of our own would be prudent.
Some existing long-term loan tools need TLC. The table saw needs a new blade, Jon had to buy a new chop saw fence recently, and the belt sander needs a new belt. The bandsaw needs shooting.
Interlinked smoke detectors. Jimbo had some suggestions there.


https://www.axminster.co.uk/axminster-hobby-series-ahbs336-oscillating-spindle-sander-508344 £150.00
https://www.axminster.co.uk/axminster-trade-series-at129pt-planer-thicknesser-ax954368 £1,050.00
https://www.axminster.co.uk/jet-jwbs-16x-bandsaw-600537 £958.33 holy bandsaws batman
https://www.axminster.co.uk/axminster-hobby-series-hbs250n-bandsaw-508204 £175.00 <-- not critical now that old up'n'down is on the up curve again. Might be good to have a reliable smaller bandsaw for fine work though.

Workshop materials

As in materials for running workshops, to get people interested. Ideas have so far included laser box making, silver jewellery casting, and resin casting (David).

First priority is working out what workshops we wish to run. Second is if we want to bother explicitly costing them, or just fund them from the float & repay that from the day's fees. We do however need enough stock material and equipment on hand for the process.

Resin has been costed now. Laser boxes require absolutely nothing new - hopefully this can be a regular workshop if it goes well.

Silver casting; gas, a blowtorch, a crucible, and an old saucepan full of sand are all we need. There are a few other cheap bits but no need listing them.

The Wishlist Proper

Usage: Budget category is for accounting/overview purposes, and automatic totalling. By the same token Cost is cleaned line cost eg 3 * goggles at '£3-5ish' == 3*4 == £12. For specifically costed items that only one are needed of, this is a duplicate of Price.

Options:

 Workshop T&E (Currently: PPE, additional tools/measures.)
 Workshop Machinery (Currently: bobbin sander. Planer/thicknesser, bandsaw need costing. Potentially radial arm drill also, price depending.)
 Workshop T&E Other (Stuff we borrow that we should probably own, eg replacement hand tools)
 Main Room T&E (Includes another god-tier soldering bay, CR10S, bench PSU and the laser airflow modification)
 Maintenance and Improvement (Currently gas fitting, which needs costing. Air filter and the workshop shelves would be good to have too)
 Essential Materials (wood, filament, resin, screws, glue, solder, etc.)

Some tools span room usage or purpose, eg calipers are used for more than woodwork, gloves all sorts, but until category numbers need adjusting I'm using which room it'll be stored in as the delimiter. Big Things are usually at the base of their section.

Please do not change table structure. Javascript automatically updates '£subtotal' fields based on cell position/indexes.

Item Type Budget Category Description Rationale / Notes Price Cost URL
Depth gauge Measuring Workshop T&E Calipers for depth. For making sure that the table saw or router really IS set for exactly X mm. Calipers with depth gauges aren't ideal for this as both the body and needle are too narrow; a gauge rides the highest points of the router bit / saw blade and spans the recess it emerges from. £16.99 £16.99 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Trimmer-Router-Digital-Measuring-40141500/dp/B0713TZRP6/ref=sr_1_3?s=diy&ie=UTF8&qid=1516207783&sr=1-3&keywords=digital+depth+gauge

Planer / Thicknesser Workshop Machine Workshop T&E Machinery Machine for turning rough stock into joinable uniform planks With a supply of pallets, this will provide us with as much lumber as we need for most purposes. Which machine is the best choice really depends how much budget we can throw at it... there are options either side, but cheaper you have very mixed reviews, or lose the planer / jointer capabilities. With this one we will need to buy or make a stand/trolley as well. £346 £346 https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-cpt1000-254mm-10-planer-thicknesser/

Bolt Cutters Tool Workshop T&E Other Cutters for bolts and similar devices We lack anything more than tinsnips. £12.99 £12.99 https://www.screwfix.com/p/forge-steel-bolt-cutters-30/3489c
Bench vice Utility Workshop T&E Other Mountable vice and small anvil for metalwork & friends For holding workpieces for on-table operations. This model also has a small anvil plate for light whacking tasks. [* smaller version] £28.79 £28.79 https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-100mm-bench-vice-cvr100b/
Rasp and file set Tool Workshop T&E Other For subtractive handwork, especially on woods and metals Since we have none to speak of, other than Adam's 2 knackered old woodrasps, and one veteran square edge metal file. With fishing on Ebay or Amazon prime only offers this will be cheaper than Draper purport. It's a lovely set. £20-60 £40 https://www.drapertools.com/product/44961/200mm-Soft-Grip-Engineers-File-and-Rasp-Set-(8-Piece)
Tap and die set Tool Workshop T&E Other For making threaded holes and threaded things what goes in those holes Prices vary wildly depending where you ask versus what quality. [ * midrange set ] £10-50 £30 https://www.screwfix.com/p/hss-steel-tap-and-die-set-51pc/12834
Workshop T&E Other These items are currently available, but only as they've been loaned. Subtotal: £subtotal
3D Printer Equipment Main Room T&E A reliable & accurate 3D printer CR10S is probably the optimal choice. A CR10 alone is about £50 cheaper. £379.88 £379.88 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Creality-3D-Aluminum-Upgraded-High-precisio/dp/B076BRF8S6/

CAT5 Crimpers Equipment Main Room T&E Network cable crimpers We don't actually have any currently. This causes severe equipment setup delays! £14.88 £14.88 https://www.amazon.co.uk/SeeKool-Portable-Ethernet-Computer-Maintenance/dp/B07D77LZ6W/
PSU Equipment Main Room T&E Another Bench PSU Queues have been known to form for the sole PSU £59.94 £59.94 http://cpc.farnell.com/tenma/72-10480/power-supply-1ch-30v-3a-adjustable/dp/IN06822
Clips Equipment Main Room T&E Banana ended clips Simple but essential £9.99 £9.99 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Micsoa-Multimeter-Alligator-Stackable-Micro-grabber/dp/B076MNYP45/
Main Room T&E Subtotal: £subtotal
Under Rafter Shelves Fitting Maintenance and Improvement Shelves & trays for the workshop dead space. See section below. £263.49 £263.49 Details and plans
Oven/Gas Fitting Fitting Maintenance and Improvement An oven for the kitchen. Or we could install it in the toilet. Either way it's an oven. See section below. £0 £0 Oven specifics
Maintenance and Improvement Subtotal: £subtotal
Shrapnel kits Consumables Essential Materials Kits of bits Nuts, bolts, screws, nails. Useful stuff that we usually mug Steve for. Using previous costing but we can use it for comparable other materials. Eg packets of the more commonly used screws, nails, bolts, etc., the previously bought bitkits then serve to fill irregular needs. £59.96 £59.96 See breakdown below Details
Core component kits Consumables Essential Materials Components Misc assorted components which we mostly lack. £45.06 £45.06 See breakdown below Details
Non-core component kits Consumables Essential Materials Other related components Crimps, heatshrink, PCB blanks, jumpers & sockets, voltage regulators, etc £51.36 £51.36 See breakdown below Details
Useful IC chips Consumables Essential Materials IC chips and sockets. Counters, logic, flipflops, opamps, etc. £17.58 £17.58 See breakdown below Details
Resin & Friends Consumables Essential Materials Resin casting equipment and essential materials After some liaising with David, this covers everything we need for holding casting workshops. £271.00 £271.00 Various suppliers
Essential Materials Subtotal: £subtotal
Total £tree.fiddy


Note that the resin materials will pay for themselves, the workshops will charge enough to cover the usage, and over time will net more paying members.

Workshop T&E Other are hand tools that we already have, but only due to loans. Ideally we need to start owning some of the core stuff outright.

Disregarding those two figures, the total drops by £632.60 - currently to £2594.75.

- Wood dyes, paints? Steve said some were missing - if I know which we can replace them? Spray paint is always useful eventually. A good ebony dye would be very nice.

To research / add:

Passive air filtration. Bloody useful and it could be considered under a few grant budget headings as accountancy requires. http://www.axminster.co.uk/jet-afs-500-air-filtration-system-310483 £304.25 - or one twice as effective for £90 more - http://www.axminster.co.uk/jet-afs-1000b-air-filtration-system-310481 £394.04 Other options are certainly available. Filters and mounting gubbins will also be needed for whichever is chosen.

A sewing machine. My efforts to rescue a normal one have yet been fruitless.

Screen printing equipment has been suggested. Digital and/or oldschool? This is a beast I am unfamiliar with. Space is also a factor. A 'starter kit' seems to be about £60, but is mostly consumables. If someone with time and preferably subject expertise could research this I'd appreciate it, I'm oversaturated with research as it is and it's not one of the areas I've worked with (unbelievable but true).

A 'better' front door camera. Awaiting thoughts from Jon. We have potentially been offered a free replacement from Sir James, uncertain as to timeframe or quality though.

Long-term consumables may be worth investing in. In particular, paints, wood dyes and finishes spring to mind. On a related note, also paintbrushes.

The grinder is currently pretty useless. We could expand it with a range of wheels to allow cleaning, abrading, sharpening and polishing - we also need to fit a guard and mount the thing though, it likes to go for a walk and spit firey sparks about the place. https://www.machinemart.co.uk/c/grinding--polishing-wheels/?p=1&c=30&s=pricelowhigh

Resin paraphernalia. Aside from a load of pots and mixers, we'd need scales, gloves, and sheet foam to make the moulds from. Long-term consumables here are things like dyes, mould release agents, of which only a small amount is used per cast. Also plaster of paris and a ton of bandages / rags / paper would be a sensible stock item. They're cheap and used for exomoulds and mean much less resin actually needs to be used per item. We would also need expendable paintbrushes here too.

Building infrastructure

Artist's impression of proposed shelving. Rumours of a magic carpet launch silo are entirely unsubstantiated.

The Under Rafter shelves

 Total: $blocktotal
 Ply, assume  18x1220x2440mm 5 * £34.99 ; £174.93 (a lot of flat surface to cover here)
 CLS, 3 * £2.50 ; £7.50
 Casters, assume 8 bays * £4.29 pack 4 casters ; £34.32
 Screws, 500 * 1; £4.99

CLS: 45cm * 7 * 2; 6.3m / 2.4m = 3 beams; £7.50. If we need support under, 2 * 5.6 = 11.2 / 2.4m = 5 beams; +£12.50

Plywood: 80cm * 120cm * 6 = 2 sheets, 5.6m * 80cm = +3 sheets. Technically can do 2 sheets but the joints would be everywhere.

It might be worth giving each 'bay' a plastic or fabric curtain to stop dust getting back there, otherwise boxes and such will become dust traps. This may potentially affect air movement and thus damp issues though. Prices are from Wickes. Are we limiting this enterprise to one side only? Assuming so for now.

An oven

I'm going to say £150 as a working figure; feel free to be more specific.

We're in need of a gas plumbing quote. Am happy to babysit engineers if/when they need to inspect the place.

Main Room Additions

  • Sharpies.
  • More drawing equipment - I've equipped us with basic geometry and stationery, but curve rulers would be excellent.
  • Cutting mats
  • Metal rulers with nonslip backing
  • Actual scalpels, and a more rugged general craft knife

Craft 'starter kits'

To expand options. Note that many of these tools are cross purpose.

  • Leatherwork
  • Wirework
  • Sculpting/waxwork
  • Casting
  • Papercraft
  • Painting/finishing. Brushes, pallets and solvents etc.
  • Fabric/textiles.

Wilko disallow online shopping for some pointy things, so an awl and Stanley knife are also needed. We need an actual tool storage device too - I'm considering building a mobile toolstand rather than having things in a semi-organised heap on the floor.

Current total £165.25.

I'd suggest that we keep the current toolbags around for now, but that any tools used from them are made a note of. After a while we'll build up a clearer picture of what else we need to add to ours.
