Update 7/30/14
Thank you everyone who participated in this weeks fastener cabinet discussion, and the beginning of the What to Stock discussion. I get the feeling that we will have a much smaller space requirement for storing what we need and keeping that stocked after we jettison some of the things we have.
I plan on putting the fasteners we are weeding out into Limbo in case someone has a need for a project at home.
PLEASE don't put them back!
Rules
Please put equipment back where it came from.
Please suggest any new needed tools. Tool Crib Wishlist
If a tool is worn out or broken, please let the Area Host know as soon as possible, and put the broken tool into the "Broken Tool Bucket"
Safety
Please use tools appropriately. We have hammers for hammering!
Safety equipment such as goggles and hearing protection are available and highly recommended.
Tools Available
I am currently working on coming up with an updated list of what tools we have, and what we need to get to order to fill out our basic tools.
I have created a set of Categories below that I will be using to group things together. That will define our current tool "footprint" and more detailed inventory will show how complete we are.
If there is something missing, please let me know!
Categories of tools:
- Corded Tools
- Cordless Tools
- Woodworking Tools
- Metalworking Tools
- Screwdrivers
- Wrenches
- Sockets
- Hammers
- Saws and Cutting Tools
- Pneumatic Tools
- Extension Cords
Consumables:
- Sandpaper
- Nuts, bolts and washers
- Screws and fasteners
- Tape
- Glue
Other:
- Safety Equipment
- Plumbing Tools
- Electrical Tools
- Painting
- Workbench & Saw Horses
- Lighting
Next Steps for the Tool Crib
- Organize what we have
- Allocation of existing pegboard to large items
- Consolidation of Screws, Nuts, Bolts, etc.
- Create a Map of what is where and publish
- Finish initial inventory
- Begin purchasing of needed tools and supplies
