I realize that this isn't something that we can "buy" but I look at all the items on the wish list, everything from bar clamps to laser welding machines, and I think "where are we going to to put all this stuff?
My wish list is stuff like a lockers where we can put laptops and personal items while we're in the space working.

GreenSweep is a sweeping compound that can be sprinkled on a dusty shop floor, (see metal shop), and will then allow the inhabitants to sweep the area without raising a ton of dust in the air. It doesn't have to be used every time, but then nobody seems to be sweeping with any regularity.
A 50 pound box costs about $30.
While we're at it, are there any good brooms around? Where?

These clamps are great! https://www.harborfreight.com/48-in-aluminum-bar-clamp-60540.html
- Light and super easy to handle
- Plenty of force for most applications
- Quite cheap for the HF ones which are probably good enough
- Paul Sellers likes them https://paulsellers.com/2011/11/4473/

Suggested by a member: https://www.vacupress.com/ $6k for big system https://www.vacupress.com/vacupress-fliptop-table-press-frame-systems/ or a vacuum pressing bag system as a strong starting point https://www.vacupress.com/vacuum-pressing-bag-system/

The "must-have" tool for building off-grid systems and lithium battery pack assembly. Lithium batteries are easily damaged by excessive heat and cannot be welded with solder irons, the only way to assemble them is via a suitable spot welder. The spot welder we have in the shop is large and not suitable for this kind of work.

This is a "must-have" tool for various projects that require large gauge wiring, like home renovation, building off-grid electrical systems, solar & solar generators, e-bikes, etc. "Hammer" type crimpers struggle to create reliable connections and the majority of Chinese hydraulic crimpers are sold with dies that are not properly sized for AWG. TEMCo crimpers are properly sized for AWG wires and very reliable, based on reviews. The best tool should be able to crimp as large as 4/0 AWG lugs and as small as 6 AWG (or smaller) to be versatile.

It allows all 3 lasers to be in use at one time and means you don't have to transfer the honeycombs back and forth. Here's one with no research just a quick Amazon search for reference: https://www.amazon.com/SCULPFUN-400mmx800mm-15-75x31-5inch-Accessories-…
