LHS is an amazing place, with more machines that one can dream of, and an equally diverse community of skills. <br />
Where else can you discuss RFID protocols used to authenticate members with their Oyster cards ? Let yourself be convinced that laser cutters are the best invention to cut wood ? <br />
And then, discover that some members are happy with just their hand and a properly sharpened blade ? <br />
Where can you find a knitting machine, a 2 tons lathe, and an improbable SMT pick and place machine.
As for any thriving communities, there are challenges to keep running such a space. <br />
And some frustrations for not getting full access to all equipment, while at the same time wishing everybody was better educated (more considerate) to properly use them. <br />
Perfect hackspaces does not grow on 3D printers. But we're surely lucky to have such a great hackspace. <br />
I'm happy to commit some time for. I'd be keen to endorse a share of the trustees responsibility to keep this place running.<br />
Declaration of conflict of interest : I'm a new dad so other standing members might be better suited to stand for this challenging year.
