This page describes the initial pledge for things we need to bootstrap our space in terms of basic tooling. For simplicity and completeness we also include below the set of tools which already existed (typically via donation or loan) when this pledge drive took place. To be clear, the tools which were bought/donated/loaned as part of this pledge drive are those in the "Tools Pledge 1" section of the wiki and those which preexisted the pledge are in the "Tools already present..." section.

There is also a separate page for electronics components and a more general Tools_Wish_List which will be used to steer other, future pledge drives and/or acquisitions.

Please add to the list below, including any prices as this will help us target which things we can afford to buy. If a tool is available in the space, please mark it in the list below as "Available in the space". If you can provide a tool, please note as "Xxx will bring to space" (and eventually as "Available" when it arrives).

Some example prices are included below (typically for Gamma, home-use quality) for reference. The tools may eventually be purchased elsewhere, of course, if better price and similar quality or better quality and similar price prevails...
