Looking For:
Artists, Fabricators, anyone with technical/embedded systems skills

Our NUMBER ONE priority is getting this looking interesting so it adds something fun to the space. We need your help with this! Our current plan is to start by painting the exterior and adding any decorations we can think of. On the inside, the circuit that translates instructions from the cash register to the part that dispenses items is broken. This will need fixing before we can use that part of the machine! It’s not a deal-breaker - the machine works fine in free mode.

Ideas for use include creating a free community library, running donation drives for clubs and charities, and having a random/lottery section for a chance to win something. We’ll likely do all of these and more, so keep the ideas coming!
