Top Priorities

Most of all, we need more money! We also desperately need:

  • An industrial sewing machine or serger
  • A 16 extension PBX for POTS

Smaller things:

  • Tools of all kinds
  • Organizational systems/containers that fit on our shelves or walls
    • Come to the space and figure out what would be good
    • Anything from tiny spaces for electronics components to large drawers
  • A roll of CAT-6A ethernet cable
  • Duct tape and wide blue painter's tape
  • Long power strips / extension cables (3-prong only)
  • Better lighting! The current lighting is functional but depressing.

  • 3 Raspberry Pis w/ HD cameras for the Milliscope, the macroscope and the microsope

Low Priorities

Not urgent, but still accepted
