General plan for Hackspace 2.0 is to keep as much of the area as open as possible. Continue to use folding tables and where ever possible have things on wheels or moveable so a large area can be cleared in centre if needed. Other things to consider or incorporate are:
[[Leaflet Targets]]


* Book shelves (will they get damp?)
[[Festivus Drinks]]
* sewing and knitting bench area with storage for yarn (will it get damp?)
* Wall-of-Boxes should we try and avoid damp walls?
* Explore Marcus' Barnraising idea

* Sorting out access
* Internet connect - engineer due to visit on Tuesday 19th April 2011 AM visit from 08:00!

* Windows need agreement from landlord re glass bricks
* Electrics Cost/Time
* Plumbing?
* Door & Security
