We need a place where we can go and work on these projects in an environment that stimulates creativity and motivation. The shop will provide a work area, resources, and knowledge to help people with their projects.
Brainstorm!
Possible means of obtaining said shop:
- Become a for-profit "professional" Make Shop. See: http://www.techshop.ws/
- Become non-profit organization and find projects that are a good source of income to pay for the shop.
- Start for-profit "cover" business that rents out a place, but only uses a small portion of it. The rest is used for the Make Shop.
- Coffee shop
- Coffee-serving robot
- Bring/brew your own coffee in the shop.
- Have standard coffee around for free use in case no one brings anything.
