	Although Makespace looks big, it's already surprisingly full. Before committing to anything we need to make sure we have space to properly use it. Note that some kit needs to be used in the secure workshop, there are typically other constraints, both general (not installing electrics next to the sink, not blocking fire escapes, etc.) and specific to the item (making sure there's enough space around the item for large workpieces, etc.). As well as using the item itself, we need to make sure there's somewhere to store it out of the way (if it's portable), and there's space for a stock of material / consumables.

 Most equipment will be purchased with Makespace funds. If you would like something to be bought, the first step is to make a proposal to the mailing list, which can then be discussed before being approved by one of the directors. We do need to make sure we get the best items for the space, both in terms of making good use of funds and making sure that everything is as broadly useful as possible, so ideally your proposal should include a few alternatives and some information about why each may or may not be the best choice for Makespace. If you are able to identify suppliers and prices that makes life easier too. Finally, do a bit of research into any auxiliary items (additional bits, measuring and calibration devices, protective clothing, software, spare parts, consumables, etc.), and whether any provisions need to be made for training and safety, and include anything you can about likely ongoing operational needs.
-Once the proposal has been approved, you are responsible for making the purchase and arranging for the equipment to be delivered to Makespace, and if necessary installed. Note that some specialist equipment requires a training session as part of the installation process.
