@mrflip I think you know well that small/hand tool organization is a Herculean effort with constant maintenance and continuous improvement that is a whole 'nother level when the community shop aspect is thrown into the mix. We absolutely could do better and are due for a clean up and reorg. We’re working on building more volunteer capacity for these kinds of tasks through the On Duty Program ( On Duty Volunteer Program - Earn Free Membership :awesome: ) and will hopefully be able to affect change in this area.
Unfortunately, it’s not a simple quick fix item like replacing an old bandsaw and lot more difficult to get volunteer engagement on. Inventorying the shop is something that has been suggested many times with a few volunteers raising their hands saying they were interested but ultimately hasn’t ever been completed (curious to hear how the TookStock project has gone). Lasting improvement in this realm is something that will take time and ongoing dedicated effort to establish.
