We appreciate your comments and recommendations. I'm a bit unsure of exactly what I need to create the things I would like to, until I get to the point where I actually need it. Much of the work that I would pursue in a space like this is only in the planning stage, and as such there might be some things that I cannot predict the usefulness. Thanks for doing this!/ Can an instructor/tutor get pro-rated membership costs for volunteer time and teaching classes? /This has the potential to be an awesome thing. I'm excited./I think space to work is most important./Tools come in second to dedicated space./One thing that is important is to not duplicate equipment supplied in other sites, like the art center.
