Prusa Mk3 3D Printer
Submitted by Jared Wolff on Wed, 02/12/2020 - 9:00pmThe current 3D printers are a nightmare to deal with. Whether clogged nozzles or user error they seem to be breaking a ton.
What I'd propose is to get one kit, set it up and try it out for an extended amount of time. If it works out, it may be a worthwhile investment to get another one.

Replace Broken Sewing Machines with Durable Metal Machines (Such as Necchi)
Submitted by Catherine Cazes... on Sun, 01/26/2020 - 4:03pmWe have discussed among the sewing team. We really think we should replace the existing donated sewing machines which keep failing by buying at least three reliable new sewing machines. We have all worked with Necchi's during the Threads and Needles program and are very familiar with them. Catherine can obtain them locally at a discounted price. We think they are sound sewing machines that have all metal parts and therefore do not break easily, like the Kenmore. We think this is important considering the frequency of use.
Tumbler machine for metals
