| ** I've created a suggested [[Media:Sample-Fix8-order.pdf|socket-cap order]] from [http://www.fix8.co.uk/ Fix8]. Having just ordered similar stuff from ModelFixings at a far greater per unit cost, I'd be pleased to see such items stocked in the space. The problem with the traditional DIY packs is that the range is limited, and while the variety per pack is ok, the individual quantities are small. So who orders this stuff? --[[User:Teabot|Teabot]] 20:36, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ** Working on deciding what we want to stock and developing a good stock-keeping system, may be a while though. [[User:Robert|Robert]] 15:52, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ** Is it worth doing stock-keeping for really low-value items? I'm thinking the value of our time would be more than the cost of the item. (I can see the value of a stock-keeping system for larger items). Suggestion: we add this kind of small item to the [[Inventory]] and keep track of them on a per-pack basis.

| |
| *** It is not that the items are valuable, but that there are so many different types of each component that it is currently difficult to keep track of what we specifically do and do not have, and it is frustrating when a particular component that should be available is not. An efficient stock keeping system could ensure that component types are reordered in good time, and that is what I am aiming to achieve. [[User:Robert|Robert]] 20:08, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

| * Is there room for an industrial sewing machine - probably in the dirty room or the lobby ? I see them come up from time to time and think they'd be useful for tougher projects than a domestic machine can handle (e.g. sewing webbing straps etc.). They're no bigger than a domestic one, but will have a stronger mechanism, very few fancy features, and will usually be mounted in a worktable about 800x500mm.
