[Jimbo]

Is there such a thing as a community workshop where people come
together (much as we all do here but in reality) to share ideas and
get ideas on projects and then use a shared workshop to make them a
reality? Instead of everybody buying their own tools and equipment
and working in their own workshops, everything would be shared and
maintained by the group. Advice would be given and sought in a
friendly fashion and joking and ribbing would be free. In addition,
if demand existed, formal classroom courses could be given on specific
topics.

Just a thought .......
