A list of things people would like to see in Makespace. We can't guarantee when or if we'll get any of this kit, but if there's something you'd like, let us know here:
Woodwork/metalwork
- Aluminium forming (because local providers aren't very good)
- A big sturdy workbench with a vice
- Hacksaws and files
- A mini drilling/milling machine, for example http://www.chesteruk.net/store/conquest_mill.htm for making PCBs and light wood and metal work.
AV kit
What about providing Audio Visual equipment for creating audio-visual experiences, interactive or not. This can be combined with workshops in animation, film-making, special effects, synthesisers, computer graphics, etc.
Equipment might include: a projector screen (or white wall), a relatively good quality, high-resolution digital projector, amplifier, speakers (with good subwoofer.) Also software for animation, computer graphics, audio synthesis, video editing. Sensors for interactive experience: camera, motion sensors.
