The Hackspace carries a range of electronic (and other) components in stock. As a rule, members can use anything for free, as long as the cost is less than £1. However, if you're using more than £5-£10 worth of components a month, we'd appreciate a donation to cover those costs. | The Hackspace carries a range of electronic (and other) components in stock.

If you're a member of the space we'll happily order components for you and take advantage of bulk discounts/free shipping. If the component you request is cheap, we may order more than you need and bring it into stock in the space (if that's the case, then it's free as above). | |||
Add items to one of the lists below if you'd like them to be stocked at the Hackspace or if you see that something's running out and needs reordering. | |||
