Moving Wishlist

With the move happening and we have been discussing stuff that we might need in the new space. This list is split into 2 sections… Needs based on what we know we might need for the new space and things people have that might be useful for a new space.

This post is a wiki post so please feel free to add items though where possible please give a use case. If you have any of the items on the Need List please reply so we have an idea of qty etc

  • List item

if anyone wants a go at moving my old one (and trying to repair it, it has a spin issue)

I’d rather for the electricals we just got everything we needed from a reputable supplier

I’m not sure if its still around, but in the corridor there was the old ‘big’ table from space2, which was 8ft x 4ft, and would make a good boardroom table.

Showed a few people a website last night called bidspotter. It’s like eBay but for liquidation sales, so you have to collect.

Theres one in particular in Manchester with a cataloge on at the moment. Theres about 1k items so it’s a lot to trawl through, but I had a scan through.

Theres some networking gear, including switches, POE switches, a few reels of cat5 etc.

Smartboards x 2

A few projectors

Lots of desks, couple of board tables, office chairs

Big fancy printers, page 3 has some photocopiers like Konika Minolta Bizhubs, that kind of thing

Could be worth an explore.
