Free material offcuts

We’ve had an email from 2MZ in Acre Lane about a load of offs of ply, MDF and Perspex that they have if we are interested…

Many pallets worth…

We are a workshop in Brixton and have a large amount of decent offcuts that we thought Makerspace would like.
Currently there is a couple of pallets worth of mostly birch plywood with some MDF, acrylic and laminated boards.

Let me know if this is of any interest and if anyone would like to collect it!

Thoughts?

Could be good to have a stock of materials. I know at some point i’m gonna need some bits an pieces. Depends on the size of the off-cuts i guess.

Someone needs to have a look at it.

It’s an all or nothing deal.

If it’s good stuff we need to think hard about where to store it: we have a few tonnes of stuff to shift from phase 2 area, so should probably avoid sticking it there?

My view is it’s too much stuff and a lot of the bits will be unsuable and it’s a lot to scrap.

If it’s decent quality materials in sensible sizes then it will save the membership a fortune, and would be a great ongoing relationship to foster…

If it’s all or nothing, then I choose nothing. We don’t have anywhere to put it, we don’t need it now, and there are always more opportunities like this.

I’ll take this as a no.

But worth a ‘thanks but maybe once we have the space’, I presume?

Sure.
