Wish List
A list of gadgets we would like to use in the near future. If you have additional ideas, please add them!
For small things, e.g. consumables, we sometimes organize group orders - see "Centralized Buying"!
A good way to make sure something can actually be purchased is to create a page for that item and link it to the entry in this list. That way, we can keep the list neat while accumulating enough knowledge and specific suggestions to make an informed decision what to spend money on. Pages for equipment we don't have yet are in the "Wanted" namespace.
Do you happen to know a good source for any of these items, or want to get rid of something yourself? Please let us know!
