We’ve certainly taken material donations in the past, typically they’re left on the laser project table with a sign and given out if anyone needs some. The committee itself doesn’t use too much material.
That being said, if you still would like to donate anything PM me and we can meet at the space some evening this week. I’d love to have a small pile of material for test cuts and I’m sure our teachers wouldn’t mind having something more stashed away for their classes. Anything else we can give out to the members as they need it.
Hey I’m afraid I missed you, sorry about that. The scrap shelf is cleared off though so if someone let’s you in you’re more than welcome to leave stuff there.
Wanted to say I really appreciate the donation! I believe all our members will be able to make some cool stuff with it.
Along those lines, I left a note on one of the larger pieces. Basically, I’d love to see it used for DMS, but I personally don’t have the creativity or time to do that. What I can do is offer it up to the membership with the request that it be used for DMS, and the offer of help or other project parts if it’s used for that purpose.
I think that’s the best way to get it put to good use, and maybe we’ll learn a few lessons along the way.
