It would be a nice workshop to lay out a PCB.

Sometimes the 3D printers are all busy, and other times they are all free. Sometimes they appear to be busy, but will all be done printing in ten minutes. It would be nice to be able to track the progress of prints across the entire farm using something like OctoFarm or similar.

Or maybe we can just do something with webcams.
Wouldn't you love to be able to carve a spoon on a lazy Sunday morning on your porch? Or whittle a walking stick by the campfire? If MakeHaven had a set of simple hand carving tools in the lending library you could!
To start out with, we could just get a simple pair of a knife and a hook knife. That'd be enough for spoon carving and some simple whittling.
A slightly more expansive kit could include a folding handsaw, a small hatchet, a few different gouges, and small chisels. A small mallet might also be useful?
We have one microscope and would like a couple more to be able to do trainings and more types of testing or observing of materials.
Get smooth, clean, easy to fit together miters without the aggravation of fiddling to make it fit. Great for framing, making boxes, etc.
