This page is a place to gather all our dreams and desires for the new tool crib, which will primarily be the responsibility of the new area host. They're likely to come into the position with a plan, but documenting the needs and wants of the membership might help guide that plan.

* Ample small (think apothecary or old hardware store) drawers up to eye level for storing one kind of thing and only one kind of thing. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:09, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Narrow shelves for holding shoebox plastic containers for hand tools and accessories — it's shameful that hand planes would be tossed onto a shelf with other junk — drills and their chucks, hammer drill handles, etc. should be kept together. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:09, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Well-labeled larger cabinets for tools, cases, bulk consumables — however, we need to make sure that paint, solvents, glue, bottles, etc. be kept somewhere else so they're easy to find, but they're not tools and don't need to take up space that needs to be used efficiently. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:19, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Zero open flat space — simply tossing a tool onto the pile is unacceptable. No open bins, no jars of nothing sitting out in the open. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:09, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Ample peg board with labeled areas for hanging saws, squares, power cords, etc. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:09, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Dispensers for commonly used consumables like paper towels, rolled shop towels, disposable gloves, dust masks? [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:19, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Paint the floor with red danger area stripes indicating that it is unacceptable to leave anything on the floor or obstructing the aisle. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:09, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Cage must have some kind of enclosure to keep dust and chips out — even masonite would be fine as long as people aren't throwing junk on the top. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:09, 25 February 2014 (CST)

The new tool crib should probably come with an inventory of our existing tools, followed by a significant purchase of new hand tools. This is a list of member recommendations.

* [http://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DCK211S2-12-Volt-Driver-Impact/dp/B0044DEXPW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1388948668&sr=8-2&keywords=dewalt+12v+max DeWalt 12v Max] tools are fantastic: they're lightweight, powerful and as durable as you'd expect DeWalt tools to be. --[[User:Dbever|Dbever]] ([[User talk:Dbever|talk]]) 13:07, 5 January 2014 (CST)

* [http://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-Phillips-Slotted-Screwdriver-Set-9-Piece-74494/100007754# Husky Phillips & Slotted Screwdriver Set (9-Piece)] because interchangeable bits are -always- lost. Fixed screwdrivers are inexpensive enough that they can be repurchased as needed. Several sets like this would be a good start. $10 a set. --[[User:Dbever|Dbever]] ([[User talk:Dbever|talk]]) 13:07, 5 January 2014 (CST)

** This. We need 5 sets of them. Each screwdriver needs to be color coded for the set it belongs too. Each needs to administer a painful electric shock to the member who doesn't return it to its set after use. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 13:59, 25 February 2014 (CST)

* [http://www.amazon.com/Nicholson-21832-8-Inch-Bastard-without/dp/B00002N5MD/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AP9TLT2LX6QXY Nichelson 8 Inch Mill Bastard File] Files are cheap, very hard, and can cut almost anything. And sharp ones are safer. $4 each. --[[User:Nerobro|Nerobro]] ([[User talk:nerobro|talk]]) 09:29, 10 January 2014 (CST)
 
−
** Add several [http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/general/file-cleaning-question-192628/ card files] so files can be resurrected after they get filled with pine tar and chewing gum. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 13:59, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Set of wood rasps so people don't misuse files on wood. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 13:59, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Hit the reset button and get several sets of drill bits marked for wood/metal and color coded to correspond to the drill bit caddy currently sitting on the small drill press bench. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 13:59, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Several decent Johnson cast magnesium combination squares, several new carpenter's try squares (ours aren't actually square). [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 13:59, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Good quality ripping, crosscut, miter, razor/dovetail, and coping saws. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 13:59, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
** Japanese ripping and dovetail saws have inexpensive replaceable/repairable blades.
 
−
** Saw tooth setter and triangular files to be hidden or labeled to be used only by people who know what they're doing. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 13:59, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* Hit the reset button on crescent wrenches and socket sets — get several decent sets and color code. Also, electric shock. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:01, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
* A set of decent quality beveled edge chisels and mortising chisels with explicit instructions that they are only to be used on wood. A wooden or poly maul for said chisels. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:13, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
** A set of masonry chisels with explicit instructions that they may be used for general whacking purposes where edged chisels may not. [[User:Jason|Jason]] ([[User talk:Jason|talk]]) 14:13, 25 February 2014 (CST)
 
−
