As the Gerber CNC has been in development for over a year and projects larger than the Shapeoko can handle are inaccessible to members at the moment. A handheld CNC would allow a stop-gap to allow the working of much larger projects than can be contained within a table.

Many people need to get things to and from MakeHaven but often don't have a large car, or only bike. A pickup truck could be used by staff and members to get lumber, transport large scrap and pickup equipment. Ideally this truck would be kept in the parking garage next to MakeHaven.

Ever have the hunkering to make a large batch of tortillas?? How about homemade croissants? Roll out some pizza dough? We have a pasta roller, but the limited width makes it hard to do large batches or laminated dough. There are some nice tabletop 19" versions on etsy! Or some ambitious person could make one??!?

The woodshop and metalshop can be quite loud, even when wearing proper hearing protection. Sound-absorbing panels will reduce the noise level. More research needed to determine the best placement (closest to which equipment, walls vs. ceilings, etc), panel type (foam, cotton, fabric stretched over wood frames, etc), aesthetics, and cost.

With MH's excellent lending library, I have /almost/ all the tools I need to remove my Prius hybrid battery; the one exception seems to be a torque wrench that works in the low ft-lb range (20-30 ft-lb), which is required for re-tightening certain bolts when re-installing the battery.

Wouldn't you love to be able to carve a spoon on a lazy Sunday morning on your porch? Or whittle a walking stick by the campfire? If MakeHaven had a set of simple hand carving tools in the lending library you could!

To start out with, we could just get a simple pair of a knife and a hook knife. That'd be enough for spoon carving and some simple whittling.
